On the southern end of the lake, the huge embankment is all made in white marble. It has marble terraces and stone steps that touch the waters of the lake. Here, one can also see the five toranas (weighing arches), where Maharana Raj Singh and his descendants organized the event of Tuladan (Kings used to weigh themselves in gold and then distributed it amongst the Brahmans).On the embankment of the lake, there domicile nine pavilions or 'Nauchowki' (nine Ghats), which were constructed by Maharana Raj Singh.

The vista appears marvelous at this time, when the orange shade of the departing Sun shades the waters of the lake. The mining of marble in the surroundings and en-catchment area of lake in the last three decades has caused irreparable damage to the source of the water. The rain water is diverted elsewhere and the lake remains mostly dry. This beautiful Lake is famous for its embankments which are adorned with carved arches and cenotapgs. The southern part of this lake is most popular one because of the presence of 5 Toranas or weighing arches. These arches were used by Maharajas of the royal families to weigh themselves in Gold, Silver and other precious metals. Equal to their weight they gave the weighed metals to the Brahmanis.Theis process of alms-giving was followed by Maharaja Raj Singh and his descendants. This event was known as Tuladan which was held annually.".
