Attraction Introduction

Midui Village is situated at the foot of the Midui Glacier in Yupu Township, Bomi County. It lies approximately 2 kilometers from the glacier and just a few kilometers from National Highway 318. Accessible via general rural roads and suitable for vehicles such as off-roaders. Midui Village is one of the most renowned settlements in the Namcha Barwa area, and the Midui Glacier in Beihai is named after it.

Midui Village is small and quiet, a Tibetan hamlet where traditional Tibetan houses are neatly scattered. Most homes have two stories, and each household has a drying terrace for barley and wheat. The trees and prayer flags in the courtyards add to the picturesque scenery. Moreover, the village sits at a low altitude of around 2,000 meters, surrounded by dense forests and, in summer, vast fields of crops spread across the hillsides, creating delightful pastoral views. Some local families offer accommodation and meals—if you have time, consider staying here.
