Magnificent views of this lake, the tranquil valley glacier and the ice melting from the mountain tops results into the colossal waterfalls from the mountains and the water gets collected here in this Gokyo lake, is supposed to be very auspicious and sacred lake according to hindu and Buddhism mythology. Breathtaking views of this lake. One can enjoy the chilling weather and fantastic views and also listening to the napali folk music sitting here.
