It is known for its aquamarine color a greenish blue similar to a special Tibetan turquoise .There is no aquatic life in the lake, which helps to make the waters brilliantly clear. If one tosses a rock in, one can watch it for a long time as it sinks to the bottom. According to legend, Phoksundo Lake was formed by a spiteful female demon. In Buddhist Himalaya, David Snellgrove recounts how the demon was fleeing from the saint Padma Sambhava and gave the village people a turquoise after they promised not to tell that she had passed by. Padma Sambhava turned the turquoise into a lump of dung, which upset so much the local people and they revealed the demon's whereabouts. She, in return caused a flood. It is said you can see the remains of a village below the lake's surface. Upper Dolpo & Shey Gompa Upper dolpo region is situated in the northwestern Nepal.
