Geography & terrain
Hmuifang lies in the Aizawl district of Mizoram at about 1,619 m, 50 km from Aizawl — the mountain resort of the Mizoram highlands, its forested slopes and the viewpoint set above the blue hills of the state's south-west.
History & culture
The area's story runs with the Mizo forest life of the region — the village commons and the jungle paths of the highlands, with the modern resort's growth as the weekend escape of Aizawl; the spot's role in the state's story as the forested high ground of the Mizo hills, with the old village sites of the region, gives Hmuifang its quiet highland character.
