[2] Falam Township is mountainous, running east–west from the foothills above the Neyinzaya and Myittha rivers to the high peaks of the Chin Hills in the Arakan Mountain Range and down to the border with Mizoram State, India.
The Manipur (Manipuya) River runs south through the center of the township.
The township is famous for its heart-shaped lake called Hri (Rih or Yi).
The dam produces hydroelectric power for Falam and neighboring cities such as Hakha and Thantlang (Thlangtlang).
Bridges include the Manipura river-crossing suspension bridge, 320 feet long by 5 feet wide, linking Bazan Village and Kawdah Village, and the Lonnlwe creek-crossing suspension bridge, 130 feet long by four feet wide, linking Kawdah Village and Kwabwe Village in the township.
