The lake extends from India to Tibet and is a tourist destined place in Ladakh. The place is one stop destination with many gifts of nature. A tourist can pick one adventure at a time. Even though it is mostly blue in color, it changes its color to green and sometimes reddish. It takes 4 to 5 hours when you travel from Leh to Pangong Lake and it is around 140 km away from Leh. The distance covered from Nubra Valley to Pangong Lake is approx. 150 km and within 6 to 7 hours, Pangon Lake awaits. The lake is salty in nature and in winter it is frozen in haze. The movie 3 idiots was filmed at the same spot and people also rejoice taking pictures.
