Lacs de Gosainkund 4380 m - a photo on Flickriver

            Les lacs de Gosainkund (aussi écrit Gosainkunda, Gosain Kunda, ou Gosaikunda) sont plus particulièrement notoires du fait de l'un de ces lacs, situé à 4 380 m d'altitude dans le District de Rasuwa au Népal. Il est la source de la rivière Trisuli. Le lac reste gelé pendant six mois en hiver, d'octobre à juin.
On dit que le lac a été formé à partir du creusement de la terre par le trident (trishula) du dieu hindou Shiva, après qu'il a bu le poison de Samudramanthan et voulait désespérément de l'eau froide pour étancher la chaleur écrasante du poison.
Vue prise d'un sommet de 5040m d'après diapositive en 1979.
Bien sur, il n'y avait aucun bâtiments à l'époque !
