'''Tsomgo Lake'',''''' also known as '''Tsongmo Lake''' or '''Changgu Lake''', is a glacial lake in Changu in the [[Gangtok district]] of the [[India]]n state of [[Sikkim]], some {{convert|40|km}} from the capital [[Gangtok]]. Located at an elevation of {{convert|3753|m|abbr=on}}, the lake remains frozen during the winter season. The lake surface reflects different colours with change of seasons and is held in great reverence by the local Sikkimese people. [[Buddhist]] monks prognosticated after studying the changing colours of the lake.<ref name="Lake">{{Cite web|url=http://sikkimtourism.gov.in/Webforms/General/PlacesOfInterest/Tsomgo.aspx|title=Tsomgo (Changu) Lake|publisher=Sikkim Tourism:Government of Sikkim}}</ref><!-- This link behaves oddly, but was working in June 15.
