Seventh of the seven lakes, Mountain lake in Marguzar, Tajikistan.
The lake sits at about 2400 meters and forms the final basin of the Seven Lakes chain in the Fann Mountains. Water flows into it from countless springs that emerge from the surrounding rock walls.
The lake formed through geological changes over many centuries as rockfalls and landslides shaped the valley. These natural processes carved out the deep basin that collects water today.
Local residents view the lake as a place where cold spring water converges from many sources into one body. In their stories, this water holds healing properties connected to the purity of the high mountains.
A simple walking trail leads from the sixth lake and reaches the shore in about 30 minutes. The paths climb steeply but are manageable and offer natural stone edges to access the water.
The name Khazorchashma means 'thousand springs' in the local language and describes the peculiar phenomenon of its waters. Hundreds of small streams and springs feed the lake simultaneously from all sides, making it hydrologically distinctive.
