When it comes to Xishuangbanna, I think of beautiful peacocks 🦚, clumsy and cute elephants, and graceful Dai girls... Xishuangbanna is called "Mengpalanaxi" in ancient Dai, which means "ideal and magical paradise", and Banna, which is famous for its ethnic minority customs, attracts people to come, especially in winter, and the warm sunshine is even more memorable!
The village on the bank of the Lancang River is a must-visit check-in point for outsiders, the streets are crowded, lively, a variety of small commodities, Pu'er tea shops, restaurant food stalls full of streets, Thai flavors, Lao coffee, congested and noisy streets, not to mention driving, even walking have to be careful... In addition to a few tall and eye-catching buildings, the houses and alleys of the seven vertical and eight verticals, chaotic and barbaric growth, garbage can be seen everywhere, the urban area is surrounded by Poly, Vanke, Country Garden and other large-scale real estate development, like a green forest in the piercing wound, the building façade and Banna's national characteristics are incompatible with the natural environment, Banna, which is famous for its ethnic minority customs, in addition to the Songkran Festival, in the street park can no longer feel the unique national culture of the Dai, Hani, Lahu ethnic groups who can sing and dance, Frontier cities that lack national culture also lose their spirituality, fall into the strange circle of a thousand cities, and lose their core national cultural values, which makes people sigh!
