È un importante luogo di culto nei pressi di Flic en Flac, a Mauritius. Affacciato sul lago omonimo, c'è il tempio di Grand Bassin. Già la leggenda che riguarda questa località la dice lunga sul suo fascino: secondo la tradizione, il dio Shiva, volando su Mauritius, sarebbe rimasto impressionato dalla bellezza del luogo; tanto da far cadere alcune gocce d’acqua dal fiume Gange, che portava sopra la sua testa; da tali gocce d’acqua sarebbe nato il lago omnimo. Ha una statua di Shiva alta 35 metriE sulle sponde del lago fu costruito l’omonimo tempio indù, uno dei luoghi di culto più importanti delle Mauritius: è questa la meta dove, tra febbraio e marzo, la comunità induista si raduna per onorare Shiva in occasione del Maha Shivaratri, la principale celebrazione dedicata al dio in questione.

"I went to Mauritius with my spouse, roads were just like the roads in INDIA. Both sides of road sugar cane farms were there, so everywhere greenery prevailed. Instead of growing so much sugar cane only one place was there in whole Mauritius here sugarcane juice was available near a market. Otherwise..." all the sugar was for export, I got astonished to see that Mauritius is more concerned about other countries rather than its own people. We went through Make my trip package, it took us to Chamarel, seven coloured earth, which was unbelievable. I could see brown, blue,green,red,purple,black,orange colours merged at one place. The panoremic view from there was also enchanting.

"We visited here during our day sightseeing with our tour guide. We were lucky enough to have a private tour guide aroudn the factory as all the other tourists were French and we were the only English. The factory was making rum during the time of year we visited, but you could still see how it all w..."orked. Our favourite bit was trying all the rum and buying some for home!
