Itanagar: The mysterious lake in Arunachal Pradesh which can also be called the local 'Bermuda Triangle' is located 12 kilometres from Nampong.
The Lake of No Return or the Nawang Yang lake has got its name from the many tales, theories and folktales that have surrounded it and is considered one of the most mysterious places in India.
It is located on the Indo-Myanmar border and falls under a small town on the border of Myanmar called Pansau. The Tangas tribe are the residents of this region.
According to a popular theory, many aircraft and their crews perished in the lake after they used the lake for a soft emergency landing during a return mission in World War II. Apparently, the aircraft were either hit by enemies or faced mechanical snags causing them to perish.
Also, many aircraft is said to have crashed while flying over the "hump" during World War II. Transport planes flying in and around the China-Burma-India borders junction would always crash in the region while carrying air supplies from Assam.
The mysterious lake can be viewed from the Pangsau pass and is 12 kilometres away from Nampong. Due to difficult terrains in the Indo-Burma Patkai mountain Range, Nampong and Pangsau Pass were called 'Hell gate' or 'Hell Pass'. It was considered very difficult for troops to pass through this region during World War II.
