Bagendit Lake, Lagoon in Garut, West Java, Indonesia.

Situ Bagendit is a lake in Bagendit village, Banyuresmi district, Garut regency, West Java, about 4 km from Garut city. Its wide, flat water mirrors the sky, with floating green vegetation near the far shore and a narrow strip of vegetation at the base of distant hills. Visitors tour it by boat or raft.

Situ Bagendit takes its name from Nyi Endit, a wealthy woman in Sundanese legend who refused food to a disguised angel three times; when the angel planted his staff at her house, water burst out and covered her and her possessions, forming the lake. The lake lies in Bagendit village, Banyuresmi district, Garut regency, about 4 km from Garut town, and is bordered by Banyuresmi to the north, Cipicung to the south, Binakarya to the east and Sukamukti to the west.

The name comes from Nyai Bagendit, a wealthy woman whose story teaches about greed through local Indonesian folklore. Visitors can sense this connection in how locals speak about the place and honor the legend tied to it.
