Artificial lake at Central Zoo, Kathmandu, Nepal

Central Zoo, Kathmandu

In the centre of the Central Zoo in Kathmandu there is a large artificial lake. This lake dominates the zoo property and probably occupies about a third of the available space. Visitors can hire a four seater paddle boat to go out on to the lake, something which is popular with the locals. As is usual with such lakes around the world, feral populations of ducks and geese are common residents of the lake and its shores.
