Bulaotun Town (simplified Chinese: 不老屯镇; traditional Chinese: 不老屯鎮; pinyin: Bùlǎotún Zhèn) is a town located in the Miyun District of Beijing, China.[1] It lies between part of Yan Mountain Range and Miyun Reservoir. The town borders Mayingzi Manchu Ethnic Township to the north, Gaoling Town to the east, Xiwengzhuang and Mujiayu Towns to the south, as well as Shicheng and Fengjiayu Towns to the west. In 2020, it was home to 12,705 inhabitants.[2]
