›There are four principal lakes in Tibet. The Ma-pham yu-ts'ho (Mansarovara), in
Ñári, is the most considerable, of a circumference of about one and a half day's journey.
In U-tsáng the Yarbrokyu-ts'ho, Mu-le-sgrum-ts'ho, and Nam-ts'ho ch'hukmo are likewise of
great extent. There are many others of inferior rank or less compass; as, that of Lá-nág
to the west of Ma-p'ham. From Rúdok (near Ladak) to the east or south-east there are
many salt lakes.‹ ¹
