Gosaikunda Lake is also popular destination in Langtang region of Nepal. The place has high significance amongst the Hindu pilgrims. As per Hindu mythology, during Samundra manthan (process of extraction of elixir by demons and gods), Sesnag (King of snake) was used as rope to rub mountain in between the ocean. During the process poison was generated that could destroy the world. Lord Shiva, the great one drank the poison to save the world from poison. He couldn’t bear the pain of burn hence struck his trident in the mountain to drink water in order to reduce the burning sensation. Therefore, the lake was formed from the water from mountain which is now known as Gosaikunda lake. The place has many other lakes around it like Bhairav Kunda, Chandra Kunda, Dudhkunda, Ragarkunda, etc. A bath in the holy lake water of Gosaikunda is believed to relief a person from all kind of sins.
