Dhanmondi Lake is a lake located in the
Dhanmondi residential area in
Dhaka,
Bangladesh. The lake was originally a dead channel of the Karwan Bazar River, and was connected to the
Turag River.
The lake is partially connected with the Begunbari Canal. In 1956,
Dhanmondi was developed as a residential area. In the development plan,
about 16% of the total area of Dhanmondi was designated for the lake.

The lake has become a well visited tourist spot, with cultural hubs such as the Rabindra-Sarobar located along its side.
