Loktak Lake
Loktak Lake, located in Bishnupur district of Manipur about 48 km from Imphal, is the largest freshwater lake in Northeast India, covering around 287 square kilometers with its size varying seasonally. It is famous for its unique floating islands called phumdis, which are masses of vegetation, soil, and organic matter that support human settlements and agriculture.
The largest phumdi hosts Keibul Lamjao National Park, the world's only floating national park, home to the endangered sangai, or Manipur brow-antlered deer. The lake plays a vital role in local life by providing water for irrigation, hydropower, and drinking, as well as supporting fishing communities living on and around it.
Recognized as a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance, Loktak Lake is an ecological and cultural treasure for the region, celebrated for its biodiversity, scenic beauty, and socioeconomic significance.
