Description
On the southern side of [the lake] Manasarovar, situated in the uppermost part of Namreldi valley, are some caves where the people of the southern shores of the Manas took refuge in severe cold, when the Kashmiri general, Zorovar Singh, invaded the Manas region in the year 1841 (PRANAVANANDA 1949: 52). In the upper parts of the valley of this river there are varieties of flower beds, some caves, and two beautiful emerald green lakes almost at the head of the valley. Going a little further up, one path goes to Purang, but it is a very difficult journey (PRANAVANANDA (1949: 134 note 1).
