Mysterious Rooster Roosting Lake: Rooster crows early, and no one knows where it disappears again!

A waterfall is falling from a mountain in the middle of a forest and a lake formed due to that waterfall. There is a Shiva temple at the top of this lake. Daily early in the morning, a rooster crows at this temple.

The locals have no idea where the rooster comes from and where it goes again. There is a popular belief that if you worship and visit the temple during the rooster crowing in the morning, your wishes will be fulfilled. Dhami-jhakri takes a bath in the lake, worships in the temple and gives animal sacrifices to get his power.

There used to be a big blue lake but now because of the landslide the area of this lake has been smaller than before.
