I visited Karakul Lake in 2001. It took me too years of travelling the silk road from Istanbul. Karakul Lake is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in my entire life! Subash

Kara-Kul ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.141.180.176 (talk) 04:10, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition (1910–1911) article

Little Kara-Kul is a lake in Tajikistan, in the northeast Pamir Mountains, northwest of the Muztagh Ata peak (7,880 metres), at an altitude of 3,870 m. It varies in depth from 24 metres in the south to 15 to 21 metres in the middle, and 300 metres, or more in the north. It is a moraine lake; and a stream of the same name flows through it, but is named Ghez in its farther course towards Kashgar in Xinjiang.
