Location and significance
Yumai is on the bank of Yume Chu river, a tributary of the Subansiri River, which it joins near Tibet's border with India's Arunachal Pradesh. It is in the western section of the holy ground Tsari centred at the Dakpa Sheri mountain.[5][6]
The 12-yearly rongkor (ravine circuit) pilgrimage passed through here, after passing through Migyitun, Gelensiniak and Taksing, to finish at Chösam. The last rongkor pilgrimage happened in 1956, after which the Sino-Indian border conflict put a stop to the practice.[7] Tibetologist Claude Arpi has called for India and China to cooperate to bring about a resumption of the pilgrimage.[8]
