Madhuri Lake (Sangestar Tso/Shonga-tser Lake) is a high-altitude glacial lake 35 km from Tawang at 4,200 m — made famous after actress Madhuri Dixit filmed the song "Koyla" on its shores in 1997. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, weeping willows, and yak herds, it is one of Tawang's most photogenic attractions. The drive through alpine meadows and the lake's reflective surface with Himalayan peaks creates extraordinary photography opportunities. Jeep safari required from Tawang town.
