Umiam Lake is one of the largest artificial lakes in Meghalaya. It is locally known as Bara Pani or Large Water.
The Sylvan Hills and Khasi Pine trees add to the beauty of this vast lake.
It was initially established as a dam or reservoir for hydroelectric power generation, but currently it is a popular tourist destination.
