Kachura Lake / Shangrila, Skardu

Kachura Lake represents two lakes; Upper Kachura and Lower Kachura in the Skardu area of Gilgit – Baltistan. Located 200 meters above sea level, it was later named Lake Shangrila due to the presence of a tourist complex located on the outskirts of the city of Skardu, the Shangrilla Resort.

Shangrila was named after a book written by James Hilton, Lost Horizon. It is a Tibetan word meaning “paradise on earth.” The beauty of the upper lake of Kachura has generally not been revealed by visitors due to the lack of infrastructure and rugged terrain.
