Malipo County (麻栗坡县; pinyin: Málìpō Xiàn, Vietnamese: Ma Lật Pha) is located in Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan province, China.
The following list of ethnic groups and subgroups, and their respective distributions, is from the Malipo County Almanac (2000).
One major tourist attraction is the neolithic rock art above Malipo itself, apparently known as the 'Great King' site for the two dominant figures at the center of the artwork. It is said to be over 4000 years old.
