History

During the Chinese Civil War, Mao's advances prompted an American missionary, J. Russell Morse, to flee from Yunnan Province to Myanmar, which was then a British colony. He founded a Church of Christ mission at Mulashidi with several thousand parishioners.

Points of interest

Mulashidi is home to the Malikha Lodge, a luxury resort designed by Belgian architect Jean-Michel Gathy. The ruins of Morse's mission can still be visited as well.[2]
