There are many stories related to famous historical places and this lake is no exception. It is said that the lake was created from the tears of a great Indian Chief after he started crying.

While the story is nothing but a myth, what’s not are the therapeutic powers of this lake. It is said that a bath in the lake is helpful in treating depression, anemia and a variety of other ailments.
