There is a beautiful lake called ‘Love Lake' which is lying above Chembra Mountain. It was the Britishers who described the lake as a love lake. From the olden times itself, there were many tourists who visit this lake to spend their leisure time. Tourists also used to stay near the banks of this lake enjoying the scenic beauty of nature.
