Gadsisar Lake is a rain water lake built by the Maharawal Gadsi in the 4th centuryand was the main source of water for the entire town.
There are may small temples and shrines around it and a wide variety of water birds can be seen here esecially in winter. The beautiful gateway which arches across the road leading down to the take was built by a royal courtesan named Tillon at the end of 19th century - Tillon Ki prol (Gate of Tillon).
The God Vishnu’s statue was installed in1908 by the courtesan and declared a Krishna Temple to save it from demolition by the then Maharawal.
