The pond which is located 2,157 m above sea level has a history dating back to the 16th century. The pond is located close to the cross road between Gaunda and Pyarjung Bhanjyang. The pond which measures 50 m long and 40 m wide is surrounded by jungle. What is very phenomenal about this pond is the way it is kept clean by birds who pick up any leaf and waste that falls into the pond. Key activities to see in this place are the Sorathi and Syarka dance of the Gurung community and recitals of Hindu hymns by the Brahmans.
