Gyirong Port & Rasuwa Bridge

吉隆口岸

A national land border crossing between China and Nepal, where the Rasuwa Bridge spans the border river, following the route of the ancient Tibet–Nepal trade road.

Gyirong Port is located in Rasuwa village, about 25 km south of Gyirong Town, at an altitude of around 1,800 metres. It is the main overland crossing between China and Nepal, facing the Rasuwa District of Nepal across the river. The ancient Fan-Nepal Road, which linked the Tubo Kingdom and Nepal, ran through this area. Visitors can explore the port area to see the national border gate, the river, and the scenery near the Rasuwa Bridge. Driving downhill, you'll notice the vegetation gradually change to subtropical forest. Entry requires a border zone travel permit, and you must carry a passport and a valid visa. Opening hours and regulations follow the port's official announcements.
