The Bum La Pass is located in Arunachal Pradesh. This mountain pass lies at an elevation of about 5,000 meters (16,500 feet) above sea level and serves as a border crossing between India and China. It is situated in the Tawang district of Arunachal Pradesh and connects the Indian town of Tawang with the Tibetan town of Tsona. The pass is part of the historic trade route between India and Tibet and holds strategic importance from a military perspective. The scenic beauty of the Bum La Pass attracts many tourists and adventurers, although a permit is required to visit the area due to its proximity to the international border. It is known for its breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains and serene landscapes.
