Mengla County, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province is located at the southernmost tip of Yunnan Province. It borders Laos on three sides: east, south and west, with a border line of 677.8 kilometers. In this beautiful and rich land, there are Han, Dai, Hani, Yi and Yao nationalities 14. Whenever the sun goes down, beautiful Dai women come to Nanla River in groups of three or five, open their skirts as a shelter and take a bath by the river. At this time, the birds stopped singing, and the running water became soft, as if afraid to disturb them, so that they could wash away the dirt leisurely and eliminate the fatigue of the day.
