Geography & terrain

Khindsi lies in the Nagpur district of Maharashtra, 45 km from Nagpur and 800 km from Mumbai — the lake resort of the region's east, its still water, the boating and the gardens set on the plateau's green country.

History & culture

The lake's story runs with the region's irrigation and the resort life — the reservoir of the local stream, with the lake's modern role as the picnic and the boating stop of the Nagpur country and the resort development of its banks; the lake's role in the region's weekend life, with the boating and the swimming pools of the resort, gives Khindsi its lake-resort character.
