Anchar Lake

Anchar Lake (Urdu pronunciation:; Kashmiri pronunciation:); lit.'Pickle') is a lake located in Soura in the Srinagar district of the Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir.

Situated close to Ganderbal, the lake is connected with the famous Dal Lake via a channel, "Amir Khan Nallah," which passes through Gilsar and Khushal Sar. The lake is in a highly deteriorated condition. In case of flooding, the excessive water of the Dal is diverted here.

The Shallabugh Wetland is fed by water from the Sind River and Anchar Lake.
