Chandra Taal lake is on the Samudra Tapu plateau, which overlooks Chandra river (a source river of the Chenab). The name of the lake originates from its crescent shape. It is at an altitude of about 14,100 ft in the Himalayas in Spiti. Mountains of scree overlook the lake on one side, and a cirque encloses it on the other.

Chandra means moon and Taal means lake so its literally a Moon Lake.

Thanks for looking.
