Why to visit Boating in Ganga Lake

Ganga Lake, often referred to as Geker Sinying which means 'confined water', is a stunning lake used for leisure activities. The lake is green because it is not connected to any streams that are currently flowing.

The colour green is constant throughout the year. It has hills surrounding it and a natural beauty all around the lake. There are boating facilities on the lake as well. Primal vegetation, varied plants, and enormous trees surround the lake.

Tai Bida created the lake as he set out to look for his missing mithuns. The Mithun, commonly referred to as the Gayal, is the state animal of Arunachal Pradesh. The Nagaland state animal is the mithun.

You must buy a ticket, ascend the stairs, and there is a ticket desk by the side of the road.
