Falam Township ((ビルマ語:ဖလမ်းမြို့နယ်)) is a township of Falam District in the Chin State of Burma (Myanmar). Its administrative seat is the town of Falam. Falam Township is mountainous, running east-west from the foothills above the Neyinzaya and Myittha rivers to the high peaks of the Chin Hills in the Arakan Mountain Range and down to the border with Mizoram State, India.〔("1:250,000 topographic map, Series U542, Mawlaik, Burma; India, NF 46-3" ) U.S. Army Map Service, March 1960; and ("1:250,000 topographic map, Series U542, Gangaw, Burma, NF 46-7" ) U.S. Army Map Service, April 1958〕 The highest peak in the township, Mount Zinghmuh〔also known as Zing Hmuh Tlang, "Zinghmu Klang (Approved)" , United States National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency〕 is also the second highest mountain peak in Chin State. The Manipur (Manipuya) River runs south through the center of the township. People who travel to the city take the Kalay-Falam-Hakha Road. The township is famous for its heart-shaped lake called Hri (Rih or Yi).〔"Hri Lake (Approved)" , United States National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency〕 The township is also the location of Laiva Dam, the largest dam in Chin State. The dam produces hydroelectric power for Falam and neighboring cities such as Hakha and Thantlang (Thlangtlang). Bridges include the Manipura river-crossing suspension bridge, 320 feet long by 5 feet wide, linking Bazan Village and Kawdah Village, and the Lonnlwe creek-crossing suspension bridge, 130 feet long by four feet wide, linking Kawdah Village and Kwabwe Village in the township.〔http://www.mrtv3.net.mm/newpaper/2110newsn.pdf Page 10 Col 2〕 ==History== In the reorganization of Chin State townships in 2008, Falam Township lost its northernmost village tracts in the east to Tiddim Township, and a few of its recently gained southwesternmost village tracts were returned to Thlantlang Township, but it gained a much longer border with India by the transfer of Tiddim Township's southwestern village tracts to Fallam Township.〔New borders and village tracts are displayed on the ("Falam Township, Chin State" ) map, Myanmar Information Management Unit (MIMU), 6 August 2009, last accessed 28 November 2010〕
