Lake Manasarovar (Sanskrit: , IAST: Mnsarovar), Manas Sarovaraor Mapam Yumtso, is the highest body

of freshwater lake[clarification needed] in the world,[citation needed] fed by the Kailash Glaciers[1] near Mount Kailash in Tibet. The lake is
revered a sacred place in four religions: Bn, Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism.

Lake Manasasarovar lies at 4,590 m (15,060 ft) above mean sea level, a relatively high elevation for a large freshwater lake
on the mostly saline lake-studded Tibetan Plateau.
Lake Manasasarovar is relatively round in shape with the circumference of 88 km (54.7 mi). Its depth reaches a maximum
depth of 90 m (300 ft)[citation needed] and its surface area is 320 km2 (123.6 sq mi). It is connected to nearby Lake Rakshastal by
the natural Ganga Chhu channel. Lake Manasasarovar is near the source of the Sutlej, which is the easternmost large
tributary of the Sindhu. Nearby are the sources of the Brahmaputra River, the Indus River, and the Ghaghara, an important
tributary of the Ganges.
Lake Manasasarovar overflows into Lake Rakshastal which is a salt-water endorheic lake. These lakes used to be part of
the Sutlej basin and were separated due to tectonic activity.
