The beautiful and awe-inspiring lake remains milky in color throughout the year.

When Guru Padmasambhava passed by, while returning from Tibet, the residents are reported to have approached him for providing a source of water. The Guru obliged, and a portion of the lake touched by him does not freeze in extreme winter. Since the water of the lake is considered sacred, visitors carry the 'blessed' water in bottles.
