History of Ambazari Lake
The Ambazari Lake was built in the year 1870, under Bhonsle rule. The primary purpose of the lake was to supply water to the government officials and eminent people of the city through clay pipes.

However, due to the constant pollution in the city, use of the lake as a water source to the city has now ceased.The Ambazari Garden that is located beside the lake was established in 1958.
