Facts and practical information
Wular Lake, also known as Wolar in Kashmiri, is one of the largest fresh water lakes in Asia. It is located in Bandipora district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. The lake basin was formed as a result of tectonic activity and is fed by the Jhelum River and stream madhumati. The lake's size varies seasonally from 30 to 189 square kilometres. In addition, much of the lake has been drained as a result of willow plantations being built on the shore in the 1950s. ()
