Mansagar Dam is situated on the eastern side of Jal Mahal, between
Amber and
Jaipur in the
Jaipur District of
Rajasthan. It offers a good vantage point for viewing the lake and the valley. The outflow of the water from the dam is used for irrigation purposes for over a thousand acres of land. Surrounded by hills, the place is the home for a variety of migratory and resident birds.
