Two Bum La passes

It has come to light recently that there are two places called "Bum La" in the Tawang district. See Talk:National Highway 13 (India).

Bum La Post or border crossing: 27°43′25″N 91°53′30″E / 27.7236979°N 91.8916106°E / 27.7236979; 91.8916106
- Distance from Tawang: 20.7 mi + 1.07 km = 34.4 km.
Bum La Pass tourist attraction: 27°45′45″N 91°46′52″E / 27.7626077°N 91.7809888°E / 27.7626077; 91.7809888
- (There is no pass here as such. The closest thing to a pass a little behind at 27°45′26″N 91°46′58″E / 27.7570839°N 91.7828805°E / 27.7570839; 91.7828805.)
- Distance from Tawang: 39.1 km + 3.07 km = 42.2 km

Information about both the places is currently mixed up on this page. Consequently it is necessary to split it into two separate pages. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 14:16, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought, I don't see any solid evidence that there is a tourist attraction called "Bum La Pass" in the Sumdorong Chu valley. Some tourists and bloggers seem to have popularised this nomenclature and the Google Maps has begun to show it. But there are no reliable sources saying it.

Many tourists that go to visit the Bum La Pass seem to also go to the Sangestar lake because the two things can be fit into a single day. But the two places are on different routes separated by "Y-junction". - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:20, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
