Being home to the Himalayas, Arunachal Pradesh is home to many beautiful lakes but none as beautiful and enrapturing as the Madhuri Lake also known as Sangetsar Lake.
One of the remotest lakes of the country and perhaps of the world as well, Sangetsar or Madhuri Lake is a breathtaking combination of rocky mountains and an ever-present lake whose beauty is beyond spellbinding.
The lake was made popular due to its appearance in the Bollywood movie Koyla and is also known as Madhuri Lake named after the lead actress in the movie.
The Madhuri Lake located at an altitude of 12,000 ft above sea level just 30 km north-east of Tawang, is a sight to behold, tucked between huge mountains in the heart of the Himalayas with many upright tree trunks standing in its belly as if guarding the lake.
It holds a very special place in the hearts of Buddhists of both India and nearby Tibet who come here every year to pray.
Madhuri Lake is a bounty of nature which amazes you, dazzles you and rejuvenates your soul.
Often famous as Madhuri Lake, Shonga-Tser Lake is known to be the place where the famous Bollywood song from the movie Koyala was shot.
The lake is known for offering panoramic views of the landscape and has been quite a popular tourist spot with wonderful scenic beauty.
The vista comprises of the serene hills and mountains that surround the lake and the place charms the tourists with its tranquil ambience.
A photographer’s delight, Shonga Tser Lake is a remarkable place to enjoy a casual stroll and bask in the serene atmosphere.
The awe-inspiring lake is a great crowd puller in Tawang and offers a respite from the noise and pollution of the cities.
