The setting is an urban lake environment with paved pathways, seating areas, and opportunities for leisurely walks, photography and birdwatching within central Chennai.

Chetpet Lake is a historic water body in central Chennai. The lake was restored and developed as an eco-park by the Fisheries Department of Tamil Nadu at a cost of about Rs 42 crore and inaugurated in 2016 to provide urban recreation, promote fisheries and conserve the lake ecosystem.
