This is Heaven Lake, situated on the border between North Korea and China. The lake lies within the caldera of Mount Baekdu, a volcanic mountain which formed the caldera following a massive eruption around 1000 AD, one of the largest in recorded history.

The lake holds much spiritual significance to Koreans, and according to legend Mount Baekdu is where the Korean people originally came from.
