Marble Lake

Marble Lake is an artificial lake located in the Ayodhya Hills near Baghmundi in Purulia district, West Bengal. Formed in an abandoned marble quarry that filled with rainwater, it is surrounded by white marble rocks and forested hills. The lake is known for its clear turquoise water and scenic setting. It is a popular stop for visitors exploring the Ayodhya Hills circuit and nearby natural attractions.

Visitors can expect a small, tranquil lake set in a former marble quarry surrounded by white marble boulders and low forested hills of the Ayodhya range. The water appears clear and turquoise, reflecting the surrounding rocks. There is an open viewing area around the lake for sightseeing and photography. The site is natural and undeveloped with no boating, and is typically visited as a short stop while touring the Ayodhya Hills.

Marble Lake is not a natural lake but an artificial water body created after marble mining operations in the Ayodhya Hills were abandoned. The quarry pit gradually filled with rainwater, forming the present lake surrounded by exposed white marble deposits.
