About Nawab Tank
A large stepped tank in the middle of Banda built by the Nawabs of Banda in the early 19th century, with a small island temple and ghats on all sides. It has been cleaned and lit in recent years and is the town's evening walk. Nothing more than that, but it is the nicest corner of a plain town.
What to see and do
- The stepped ghats on all four sides
- Island temple in the middle
- Evening lights and walkers
- Ten minutes from Bhuragarh
