Foy's Lake, Reservoir in Chittagong, Bangladesh.

Foy's Lake spans across a water surface at an elevation of 35 meters, surrounded by green hills in the northern part of Chittagong.

The reservoir emerged in 1924 through the construction of a dam across a stream, initiated by a railway engineer to supply water to the local railway colony.

The lake area functions as a gathering place for families and students who participate in local festivals and enjoy traditional Bangladeshi food from vendors.

Visitors can reach the lake using public transportation and participate in activities like boating, fishing, or enjoying the adjacent amusement park facilities.

The lake combines industrial heritage with recreational facilities, featuring a railway workshop, diesel facility, and modern entertainment venues in one location.
