3.6 KM from city Raipur

Vivekananda Sarovar is a favorite among locals and is one of the most recommended places to visit in Raipur. If you are looking to spend a few hours in peace and quiet while enjoying the laidback pace of the city, head here without another thought. It is said that Swami Vivekananda stayed close to the lake and spent a lot of time meditating on its banks. His statue was built on the lake as a tribute a few years back and since has been one of Raipur’s most visited spots. You can take a picnic basket here and enjoy the day beneath the splendid statue or go for boating in the sarovar.
