Lakes In Ladakh

Ladakh is a place where panoramic lakes are presented for the appreciation. These lakes offer many different varieties at every new fresh hour of the day. These lakes sometimes show the bright green color and sometimes show the midnight blue pond color. These lakes are so stunning that travelers can sit on the side without doing anything for many hours or for the whole day. In winters these lakes freezes many meters deep and treats themselves as a highway.
The marshes around the lakes have some signs of the aromatic plants which last at least for 2 to 3 years of monsoons. Once this lake was the channel to Shyok River but due to natural disaster it is blocked now. The main Lakes in the Ladakh region are:

Pangong Lake Ladakh

Pangong lake is positioned at the height of 4.3495km is internal drainage basin, in which the water is not exhausted by any mode of method. Because of no drainage facility, this lake has the most salty water. In nastiness of the salty water, this lake chilled in the winter season. This lake is positioned at the border of India and china, in which 40% is in India and 60% is in china. The line of control in between the India and China runs from this lake only.
This lake transformed its color with each hour of the day. Salty water of the lake has no life to maintain. This lake contains so much of salty water so that no marine life can sustain in it except few Crustaceans. But this lake is habitat for migrant ducks and gulls.
Scenery around Pangong Lake all the way through the expedition shoots up so suddenly that travelers throw off all calculations of distance - what looked to be a ten-minute crossing easily required an hour or more. At times, it comes into view as if so many of nature's forces were warning us away at the sheer slopes and uneasy bends and not to forget the great chunks of ice appearing static and frozen in time. At Darbuk village which is close to Tangste Valley stood a chain of war monuments with Regimental Insignias in commemoration of the soldiers who lost their lives during the Indo-Chinese war of 1962. Some of the army bunkers and channels are still in use. Villagers can be seen here along with their large groups of Pashmina sheep and long tailed yaks.

Tsomoriri Lake Ladakh

Tsomoriri or Lake Moriri which is also famous as Tsomoriri Wetland Conservation Reserve is a lake in the Changthang region in Jammu and Kashmir. The lake is at an altitude of 4.595 Kms .It is the largest of the high elevation lakes in the Trans-Himalayan biogeography region, entirely within India. This lake is totally situated in the Indian Territory. The lake assembled between Ladakh, India to the North, Tibet to the east and Zanskar in the west.
There are two main river systems for water to enter inside the lake, one inflowing the lake from the north, the other from the southwest. Both watercourse systems create widespread marshes where they enter the lake. It previously had an outlet to the south, but this has become blocked and the lake has become land locked. As a result, the water is now becoming salty. The lake was a resource of salt for local people until 1959.
Tsokar means the salty water, as there is no approach of drainage. This lake is fed by the two streams and springs. 34 different species of birds are found near at this lake. There is no plants life in the deep side of the lake while the shallow lake has some signs of vegetation.
