Achi Muga was included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists in 2006. It is said that the ancestors of the Lisu people lived by hunting and built their villages in the mountains mainly for convenient hunting. Later, they gradually adapted to life here, relying on hard work and wisdom, living in harmony with the mountains, rivers, and plants, and reproducing here, forming the present-day Tongle Village.
