Mizo Hlakungpui Mual, Literary memorial in Champhai, India.
Mizo Hlakungpui Mual is a literary memorial in Champhai that displays inscriptions and plaques featuring works by Mizo poets. The site showcases their contributions to regional literature through several exhibition sections dedicated to different literary figures.
The memorial was established in 1986 to honor Mizo poets who explored regional themes and traditions in their work. Over the decades, new names have been added periodically to recognize additional important writers in the community.
The name reflects the Mizo people's deep respect for poetry and written expression in their community. You can observe how locals view this space as a keeper of their literary heritage and regional identity.
The memorial is located in Champhai and can be accessed through local information points where staff can answer questions about the featured works. Visiting during dry season makes it easier to walk around the grounds comfortably.
Recognition follows strict criteria: writers must have published several books and five years must have passed after their death before inclusion. This selective approach makes listing on the memorial a distinctive honor that only a few achieve.
