Sarasbaug is a major landmark in the city of Pune in India. The place where the park now stands was once occupied by a small artificial lake. However, the lake slowly dried up and was later developed into Sarasbaug by the PMC in the 60s. The whole 25-acre (10 ha) complex is known as Sarasbaug. The Ganesh temple in Saras Baug is also known as Talyatla Ganapati (in Marathi:तळ्यातला गणपती ) which translates to 'the Ganapati of the lake'.
