The story
Lake Shilloi is a natural lake in Meluri district of Nagaland, and it is the largest natural lake anywhere in the state. The water lies in a valley, and pine forests cover the land all around it.
The lake has gone by several names. Its original name was Lütsam, a word meaning a place where water gathers. Under British rule it was known as Shiloh, and today its official name is Shilloi.
