/ jaymishra_05 • Special thanks to #HealingHimalayas for tirelessly running cleanliness drives across the arduous terrains of the greater and lower Himalayas. Their efforts are not only helping maintain the ecological balance but also creating awareness amongst the youth of our nation around the issues of climate change waste management. • The lake is located at a height of 2730 m above sea level. With deep blue waters, the lake is held sacred to the sage Prashar and he is regarded to have meditated there. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks and looking down on the fast flowing river Beas, the lake can be approached via Drang. There is a round, floating island inside the lake. • It is actually quite difficult to track the actual history of this temple. However, as per legends, it is believed that Bansen, the king of Mandi, built this temple in 13th century in pagoda style, and took around 18 years to finish its construction. • It is believed that Sage Prashar meditated on the banks of this lake, hence it is named as Prashar Lake. Bhima, one of the Pandava brothers, had created the lake. The story says, after the Kurukshetra / Mahabharat war, Pandavas were returning with Lord Kamrunag. When they reached this place, Kamrunag loves the tranquil surroundings and decides to live here forever. So, Bheem (the strongest of the lot) rams his elbow on one of the mountains and creates a big dent in the land. This dent became Prashar Lake. • #prasharlake #Documentry #himachalpradesh #mandi • @SAFARYHOOD @BComparisonsdata
