Lakes
of Nepal
There are number of lakes and tanks of glacial and
tectonic origin in Nepal. Mountain lakes like Rara,
Phoksundo, Phewa etc., are majestic in extent and
beauty.
Rara in Mugu district of western Nepal is the countryÕs
largest lake. Phewa at Pokhara is another equally famous
lake. Phoksundo in Dolpa Distric is yet another big lake
but is less well known than Phewa Lake due to its
difficult approach. Rupatal and Begnastal (Pokhara),
Gaduwaltal (Chitwan), Satyavatilal (Palpa), Khaptadtal (Doti),
Barhakunetal (Dang), Surma Sarobar (Bajhang) and
Tilichotal (Manang) are some of NepalÕs other well-known
lakes.
Gosainkunda and other lakes in the Langtang Himal region
are of religious significance.
