Milyanfan (Template:Lang-ky; Template:Lang-ru; Template:Lang-dng; Chinese: 米粮川, Miliangchuan) is a village in the Ysyk-Ata District of the Chuy Province of Kyrgyzstan. Most of the population are ethnic Dungans.

The village is the birth place of Sergeant Mansuz Vanahun (Template:Lang-ru) (1907-1943), who died heroically during World War II, and was awarded, posthumously, the honorary title of Hero of Soviet Union. His house is preserved as a museum, and in 2005, his bust was unveiled in the village.[1]
