The lake was constructed in the 12th century by Arnoraja, the grandfather of Prithviraj Chauhan.
The name 'Chaupati' refers to the popular Indian concept of a bustling, multi-use waterfront recreational space.
The garden layout incorporates modern street furniture and lighting designed to illuminate the lake perimeter after dark.
The area is strategically positioned to minimize direct sun exposure for visitors seated on the stone steps during late afternoon.
Anasagar Chaupati Garden is a dedicated public promenade situated along the edge of the artificial Anasagar Lake in Ajmer, Rajasthan. The walkway features paved pathways, tiered seating, and landscaped green patches designed for viewing the water. It serves as a focal point for evening social activity, specifically oriented toward western horizon views over the lake. The site is a popular destination for observing the sunset against the backdrop of the Aravalli hills. Development efforts have integrated the walkway with the broader Anasagar Lakefront beautification project.
