 One of the most stunning lakes, Chandratal Lake, is situated in the great Himalayas at a height of about 4300 metres. The magnificent lake is the source of the Chandra River and is located on the Samudra Tapu plateau in the Lahaul region of the Lahaul and Spiti districts. The crescent-shaped lake earned the name “Chandra Taal” (Lake of the Moon). Additionally, this lake is one of the two high-altitude wetlands in India that have received the Ramsar designation. It used to be a temporary home for Tibetan traders who came to Spiti and the Kullu region to do business. Now, it draws tens of thousands of people who want to try new things.

For travellers headed to the Chandratal, the Chacha-Chachi Dhaba in Batal is a well-known location. This Dhaba is ideal for a rough stay in Spiti’s utter wilderness because it has a satellite phone on site. The Dhaba with Chandra Aunty’s name is owned by the elderly couple known as Dorje Uncle and Chandra Auntie. The only place to stay for 50 kilometres on either side is the stone Dhaba, which offers basic lodging. People can hardly stand straight because of the height of the ramshackle construction, which is made of stones stacked on top of one another. On a bed of stones, mattresses are spread out, and guests are expected to share the space. Approximately 150 rupees are spent on each person. Experience what it’s like to live when the wind howls through the cracks in the stone wall! It would undoubtedly produce a priceless memory.
