The lake is considered to be carrying religious significance both in Buddhist and Sikhs religions. The surprising fact about this sanctified lake is that even in extreme winters, a part of this lake never freezes. The myth behind this is that Guru Dongmar had once touched and consecrated this lake and made it partially frozen throughout the year. The Lake also carries curing properties and offers the amazing view of Mount Siniolchu and Khanchendzonga. Gurudongmar Lake is extremelypopular amongst the tourists because of its religious significance, scenic beauty and admirable treks.
