    History

    The Suraj Kund, meaning 'Lake of the Sun,' has historical significance, although precise details about its origin are scarce. Local legends suggest it dates back several centuries, possibly to the Mughal era or even earlier. It's believed to have served as a water reservoir and a place for social gatherings. Over time, the kund fell into disrepair, but it was later renovated and transformed into the Suraj Kund Park, a public space for recreation and leisure. The renovation aimed to preserve the historical essence of the kund while providing modern amenities for visitors.
