If you are not satisfied with the bird\u2019s-eye view of this expanse, you can take a boat ride on the soothing waters of the Nainital lake for a closer view. And, it’s one of the top experiences in Nainital! A pretty interesting story surrounds this lake\u2019s creation. Legend says that three sages dug up this area and brought water from the Mansarovar Lake in Tibet to fill it up. Since there was no source of water to quench their thirst after the pilgrimage, they decided to create what is now called Nainital lake. So, when you’re paddling on these calm waters, thank these sages (their names are Atri, Pulastiya and Pulha, by the way). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
