Gyirong Port
Border crossing between China and Nepal
Gyirong Port
Gyirong Port (Chinese: 吉隆口岸; pinyin: Jílóng kǒu'àn; Tibetan: སྐྱིད་གྲོང་འགག་སྒོ་།) was a Chinese land port and border crossing on the China–Nepal border. The port complex stood at the confluence of the Trishuli River with the Lhende Khola, near Risur (Chinese: 热索; pinyin: Rèsuǒ; Tibetan: རི་ཟུར་།), in Gyirong County in the Tibet Autonomous Region, opposite Rasuwagadhi (रसुवागढी, Rasuvāgaḍhī) in Nepal. The two sides were connected by the Nepal–China Friendship Bridge, also known as the Miteri Bridge (from मितेरि, the Nepali word for "friendship") or Risur Bridge (from its location in Risur, Gyirong County). The Gyirong valley had long served as a trade and travel route between Nepal and Tibet. After modernization, the port became important for cross-border trade and tourism. Its road connection joined China National Highway 216 with Nepal's National Highway 42. The complex was damaged in the 2025 Nepal floods and was ultimately destroyed during the 2026 Nepal floods.
