Ghora Katora Lake & Eco Park

The place is very beautiful. Peaceful and natural environment. Situated in forest far from city crowd. Neat and clean. Surrounding with hill. Very beautiful 😍❤.

The place is very calm and scenic. There is option to do boating. There is a big Buddha statue in centre of the lake and views are amazing.

Best time to see this place is after 3.30 pm. Less crowded, wild range , specially the boating, and lots of white duck. Peaceful place.

It is one of the famous places of Rajgir. To come here, first of all you have to come to the entrance of Vishwa Shanti Stupa, then from there you have to buy a ticket of Rs 10. No private vehicle is allowed from there. You will have to take an e-auto from there, the fare of which is Rs 100 per person. To visit Ghoda Katora well, do take a boat ride on the lake, for which I paid Rs 80 per person. After visiting here, definitely go to the adjacent Eco Park, whose entry fee is Rs 10. It will take you at least 3 hours to visit both the places.

Ghoda Katora is a beautiful natural lake located near Rajgir.

According to Hindu mythology, this place used to be the stables of King Jarasandh. The government of Bihar has developed this site under Bihar Tourism to attract tourists.

A must visit place if you're coming to Rajgir. Situated and surrounded by beautiful mountains. Presence of Lake and lord Buddha inside it gives a heartwarming feeling for the location. One can reach here via Tota (EV) standing at the main gate which will cost at least 200 for single person. Closing time is around 4pm so make entry before that.
Boating charges are very minimal and you'll enjoy a lot. There will be network problem here. A small shop for snacks and water.

Ghoda katora lake is a natural lake and one of the tourist attraction in Rajgir. This lake is situated in deep inside the forest. The lake is surrounded by high mountains. There is a tall statue of Gautam Buddha in the middle of this lake. This make the lake more beautiful. There is a natural environment around the lake. People can enjoy boating inside this lake by paying the specified fee amount. Mountains surrounding this lake is looking awesome. This is also a beautiful place for photo shoot. This is 6 km away from the base point of the Shanti stupa and only e-riksha are allowed to go there. E-rikha cost is Rs. 100 each passenger for to and fro journey to the Ghoda katora lake. This is suggested to take snackes or food items and water with you from the base point of Shanti stupa. It is better to take e-rikha to go there latest by 4 pm. There is a Goda katora park also nearby this lake. The park can be visited by paying Rs. 10 as an entry fee. This park is also beautiful as I have seen from outside. There is a viewpoint tower inside this park. This is also suggested to keep eye on your kids and don't allow them to go near the lake water. It is better to visit Shanti stupa first and then Ghoda katora lake. Do not encourage begging by giving anything to the beggars if you find.

Wonderful place to visit. From the main road, it is around 6.5 km inside. Autos are available to take you to the spot which is a nice journey covering jungles and then Lake.

You can go boating. It's a nice picturesque scenery all around.

There is so much space here and there is such a bright world that I can't explain why the view here can't be captured.

A 6 km ride on e-rickshaw from the jhoola par. The whole experience is very good. An average sized lake with boating facility. Very scenic. Good experience during monsoon and winter season. Surrounded by hills.

Wonderful place, senic beauty of the Rajgir Hills and Lake. Hills and forest sorrunding from all sides. Lovely Buddha statue made in the middle of the lake. You can enjoy manual pedals boating by paying 40 rupees. There is also ecopark being maintained by Bihar forest Dept. Roads to the lake needs improvement. You can get your battery operated taxi from Shanti stupa.

Best to cycle if you like to pedal and enjoy spending time on your own.

Very nice and beautiful place, great picnic spot for full day. Lot of food options with veg and non veg varieties. Easy paid parking space... Worth travelling

Gautam Buddha huge marval statue established between lake......Boating also available 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Very nice place real peace 🕊

It is appreciating that government had allowed only e-rickshaws and not polluting vehicles to reach here. But being a forest area, there should be some security officials in this place for the safety of visitors.
