Thought to be man-made, the lake organically filled with water and gained notoriety for having exceptionally pure water—a feature uncommon among comparable borrow pits constructed during major building projects.

The lake was formed over time by the stagnant water and is now home to a variety of fish species and is a well-liked tourist destination.

On weekends, people visit the lake because of its tranquil ambience and stunning blue-green appearance, and local vendors frequently set up shop nearby to serve tourists.
