Lake Anosy

An artificial lake called Lake Anosy (French: Lac Anosy) is located in Antananarivo, Madagascar's capital city, in the southern portion of the city, about two miles south of Haute-Ville. In relation to the lake, Ampefiloha is to the west, Isoraka to the northwest, and Mahamasina to the north. There are jacaranda trees along the lake that bloom in October and November. By the lake, great egrets used to rest. Jacaranda trees line its perimeter, and in October, when the trees are covered in purple blossoms, the area is particularly lovely. An annual fireworks display is held on the lake on June 26, the day we celebrate our country's independence.


French builders erected the Monument aux Morts, also called the Monument to the Dead, as a monument to honor the First World War casualties. It is the most recognized aspect of the lake and was created in 1927 by the architect Perrin and the artist Barberis. The memorial is a sizable golden angel holding bay Laurel branches in his left hand and a wreath of Laurel in his right hand. Every year on June 26th, in honor of Madagascar's independence day, a fireworks display is held on the lake, which is one of the most impressive monuments in the capital city. Many homeless and underprivileged people occasionally live in the park area surrounding the lake. Visitors can still spot individuals swimming or fishing in the waterways. Lake Anosy is undoubtedly one of Madagascar's attractions that must be experienced firsthand.
