India is home to some mesmerizing hill stations and all of them stand at par with each other. One such splendid hill station is Nainital - home to seven beautiful lakes to blow your mind away. Nainital is a very popular holiday spot for not only Indians but foreigners who come to India to enjoy and unwind, as well. If you are fond of mountains and a self-proclaimed water baby, then this is the place for you. Where else would you find seven beautifully lakes, waiting to be explored?
Nainital Lake
This is the most visited place in the hill station and is always bustling with people at all times of the day. One can walk down from one side of the lake to another and even stop for coffee at a lot of new cafes that have cropped up here. The roads have hundreds of shops for avid shoppers, but the Tibetan market that awaits you at the other end of the lake is bigger and better. If you want enjoy boating, then the Naini lake could equal paradise for you because it is vast and is surrounded by lush green mountains. The place looks straight out of a painting.
On reaching the market, you can easily spot Naina Devi Temple which is visited by devotees regularly. One can even feed fishes from the temple since it is located right on the lakeside. After you are done feeding the fishes and offering prayers, you can shop hours and then stop to have some legendary steaming hot momos at Sonam's, a street-side eatery, dedicated to delicious Chinese food.
You can also come back in the evening and just sit by the lake, appreciating Nature and all that it has to offer. You'll see a million lights twinkling on the mountains and you would definitely want the moment to just freeze.
Sattal
This another lake which is pretty secluded but is a camper's delight. You can even go for some kayaking in this lake. A lot of adventure seekers come here and indulge in some recreational activity. You can even plan and set up your own barbecue here, so that when you're tired for the day after a long swim, you have fresh steaming food. Taking your own inflatable boat should also be a great idea. A lot of campsites are already set up, so you can easily get a fun and action filled package at a pretty reasonable rate. Everything, in the lap of Nature!
Naukuchiatal
This is another of the seven lakes of Nainital and is again not as commercialized as Naini lake. One can, though, enjoy some adventurous activities which is sure to give them a huge adrenaline rush. Paragliding is one such activity that you can indulge in, at Naukuchiatal. One can also go visit the famous Hanuman Temple which isn't very far from the lake or just spend a day bird watching or doing some wildlife photography in nearby villages.
