Rewalsar FRH faces the famous lake of the same name. At an altitude of 1,304m, Rewalsar is 24kms from Mandi. Shaped more or less like a square, this lake lies amidst a variety of lush sub-tropical and semi-alpine vegetation. This tiny spot is sacred to three of India's major religions. Buddhists believe that this was the spot from where Padmasambava used his powers to 'take flight' to Tibet to spread the word of the Buddha. The little clusters of floating reed on the lake's waters are considered to embody his spirit. For the Hindus, this is where the legendary rishi, Lomas meditated. The Sikhs have a gurudwara that was built at the behest of Raja JoginderSen of Mandi in1930
