The turquoise water of the lake, at the signal of strong winds blowing in the narrow pass, creates waves on the surface of the water in a very attractive way. The lake has flooded more than 18km of the Karakoram Highway, paralyzing traffic. Now the only way to reach the village of Husseini is through crossing the lake by boat.
