About This Attraction

Laon Tso is juxtaposed with Manasarovar and is known as the "Ghost Lake". But its fame cannot be compared with the "holy lake" Manasarovar. The area of Laon Co is small, slightly lower than that of Manasarovar. In 1906, after measuring the water depth of Manasarovar, Swedish geographers tried to measure the depth of Laon Co, but only to measure the northern end of the lake to no avail. Its depth is still a mystery. Due to the climate change over the years, the water of Laangcuo Lake can no longer flow out and is closed into an inland lake. In the past 100 years, the amount of water supplied from Manasarovar through the Anja waterway has been intermittent, and the accumulated water area is much smaller than that of Manasarovar. The process of increasing chemical degree, but it is still a magnificent lake. There is still a river between the ghost lake and the holy lake. There is a small island in the ghost lake. It is said that there is a small temple on the island. Every winter, the lake is frozen and frozen, and the lama in the temple has contact with the outside world. Like the holy lake, the ghost lake is a paradise for birds.
