Bhimtal
Bhimtal is a small hill town in the Lake District of Kumaon in the foothills of the Himalayas in the Shivalik range in the region known as Devbhoomi, the Land of the Gods. The lake, which has a small island in the middle, is the largest of the lakes in this region and was known only to the hill people until 1841, when the British discovered it. It was the best route between the Kumaon mountains and the plains of India and was a stopping place for traders from Tibet travelling down with caravans of sheep loaded with borax. It may well have been part of the Silk Route.
The Pandavas (of the Mahabharata) are believed to have visited here during their vanvas (forest exile). Local legend says that when their wife Draupadi was thirsty, Bhima struck the ground with his mace, and water gushed out. The lake that formed was named after him.
