"Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder" Loktak Lake is a beautiful lake for all the visitors to her place but it is also a gift for those who are surviving by this lake with its flora and fauna available there. Phumdis are a series of floating islands, exclusive to the Loktak Lake in Manipur state, in northeastern India. They cover a substantial part of the lake area and are heterogeneous masses of vegetation, soil and organic matter, in different stages of decay. The largest single mass of phumdi is in the southeastern part of the lake, covering an area of 40 km2 (15.4 sq mi). This mass constitutes the world’s largest floating park, named Keibul Lamjao National Park. The park was formed to preserve the endangered Eld's deer subspecies, called sangai in the Meitei language, indigenous to this area. The circular phumdis and vegetation seen inthis photo are also a part this floating park.
