Lake Phewa
0
Phewa Lake (formerly called Baidam Tal) is a freshwater lake in Nepal located in the south of the Pokhara Valley. The lake is stream-fed but a dam regulates the water reserves, therefore, the lake is classified as semi-natural freshwater lake. It is the second largest lake in Nepal and is the most popular and most visited lake of Nepal. It is the only lake in Nepal to have a temple (Tal Barahi Temple) at the central part of lake. Phewa Lake is located at an altitude of 742 m (2,434 ft) and covers an area of about 4.43 km2 (1.7 sq mi). It has an average depth of about 8.6 m (28 ft) and a maximum depth of 24 m (79 ft). The Annapurna range on the north is only about 28 km (linear distance) away from the lake.
