This natural beauty is one of the few existing “natural swimming pools” but also a mythical home of ‘Abena Mbushi’
This natural swimming pool is called Lake Kashiba- also called the ‘sunken lake’ of Mpongwe District in Copperbelt, Zambia.
According to myths (believed as factual) by local people, this lake has no base but has a village, a home to the ‘Abena Mbushi’.
Unlike man- made swimming pools, this beautiful natural swimming pool can never be seen with leaves shaded from trees despite being surrounded by only trees as the “villagers of Abena Mbushi” living underneath the lake have it cleaned in the hours of the night.🫡
Among many other stories about the Lake Kashiba is that fish from this lake doesn’t get cooked but sings in the pot instead 🥵
Does the ‘sunken lake’ have crocodiles and other aquatic life?
This beautiful lake is said to have inspired the concept of the Marvel movie- Black Panther 2.
