What should I pay attention to when driving from Kunming to Xishuangbanna?

It has been raining everywhere in Yunnan recently, and the travel experience is very poor.

Only Xishuangbanna, originally a "rainforest climate", did not affect the quality of tourism, and the tourism safety factor was high!

Banna is played in summer, that is, in the rainy season!

So now the most worthwhile place in Yunnan is Banna!

However, Banna is one of the most mature tourist destinations in Yunnan, and the hype is too hot, so there are too many tourist attractions and routes, and many people can't tell clearly where to go online.

Today, Bian Xiao tried to comment on various tourist attractions in Banna.

I hope it can provide substantial reference for your trip.

Let's find a map first. Look at the picture. I'll tell you.

First, the problems that should be paid attention to on the way to Banna

Xishuangbanna, located in the southwest of Yunnan province, with Jinghong as its capital, has always been a hot spot in Yunnan tourism. At present, there are two modes of transportation: plane and car.

It takes about 8 hours for the car to travel at high speed. Midway dining, it is suggested that people traveling on the road choose Yuanjiang, Mojiang (Mohei town or customs clearance is also acceptable) or Pu 'er, where there are delicious food, fruits and tourism value, and few people cheat customers.

Ashima Yang Likun's former residence is in Mohei Town.

If you have the conditions, you can consider staying in Pu 'er for one night before going-that small town is quite clean, there is still room to play and the accommodation is very cheap.

There are many tourist attractions in Pu 'er, so it takes at least four or five days to play well. However, in the rainy season, it is recommended not to consider the travel plan that is too far away from Pu 'er city-the road conditions are not very good, and it is very dangerous to change the itinerary because of geological disasters.

When the weather is fine, you can stop by Puer Sun River National Forest Park on the way to Banna. My feeling is that the tourist value here can be comparable to that of the Zhongke Garden Botanical Garden in Banna.

Banna is located in the southwest border, bordering Laos and Myanmar, and has a tropical rainforest climate, which is divided into dry season and rainy season. Dai, Hani, Bulang, Wa, Bulang, Lahu, Yi, Yao, Jino and other 14 ethnic groups live there, and the tourism experience is very rich and unique.

Second, it is the most fun season in Banna.

1, the first place to go: Menglun Botanical Garden, Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, China Academy of Sciences.

Transportation: It takes about 2 hours to drive from the urban area to the Botanical Garden of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the ticket is 104 yuan. It is an independent scientific research institution integrating Academy of Sciences, species protection and popular science tourism. The park covers an area of16,000 mu, and has collected13,000 species of plants in tropical regions of the world, and cultivated them in 38 characteristic gardens and 6,000 mu of tropical rain forest. It is a botanical garden with many outdoor preserved plants in the world, and has become a conservation and research base of tropical plant germplasm resources in China.

Botanical Garden is the most mature and worthwhile scenic spot in Banna at present. It's necessary for foreign tourists, so it's best to arrange more time here. Many local tour guides often urge tourists to browse and leave, so as to drag them to other scenic spots or trick them into shopping. Don't be cheated.

2. The second must-see attraction, Wild Elephant Valley: Xishuangbanna Wild Elephant Valley

Transportation: It is about 32 kilometers away from the urban area. People in go on road trip can visit Jinghong when they go in and out. It takes about 1-2 hours to drive to the Wild Elephant Valley Scenic Area. Tickets for 65 yuan are available.

This is also the only paradise in China where you can safely see wild elephants in Asia. Wild Elephant Valley has Asian elephant seed breeding center, Asian elephant ecological observation area, wildlife viewing area, folk culture display area, bird garden, butterfly garden and other attractions.

3. The third must-see attraction: Dai Garden in Xishuangbanna or Jinuo Shanzhai.

Transportation: Jinuo Shanzhai is the nearest scenic spot before entering Jinghong, which is in line with Wild Elephant Valley, and it takes about 2 hours to drive from downtown to Dai Garden. Daiyuan is the other direction, and it belongs to the same line as the botanical garden.

Why do you recommend these two companies together? Because I think it's ok to go to one, and it's almost the same. If we have to choose between these two, let's go to Dai Garden. Every day after the Songkran Festival, the ethnic customs are stronger-tickets are too expensive, so save it if you can.

When I arrived in Banna, it was just the Water-splashing Festival. I always felt that something was missing, so I still had to go to Dai Garden!

Tickets for Dai Garden 50 yuan, a natural place connected by five villages, a thousand-year-old folk custom, gorgeous subtropical courtyard scenery, a paradise with fragrant flowers and fruits, a typical dry fence building, mysterious Buddhist culture spread to the south, and a warm and spectacular "Water Splashing Festival every day".

4. Four must-see attractions: Wangtianshu Rainforest.

Tickets for Xishuangbanna Tropical Rainforest National Park-Wangtianshu Scenic Area 60 yuan has a large area of rare tropical rain forest represented by Wangtianshu.

The highest canopy corridor in the world.

There are also the national cultural corridor of the original ecological natural village and the water sightseeing corridor of the tropical rain forest. It is a scenic spot in China to fully appreciate the soul of tropical rain forest from water, land and air. Tickets+Crown Corridor+cruise fee *** 178 yuan, which means you have to buy tickets after entering.

5. Five must-see attractions: General Buddhist Temple and Man Ting Park.

The "long history" General Buddhist Temple rebuilt in 2005 is very new and clean. The biggest attraction is the huge standing Buddha at the highest point of the Buddhist Temple, which is very spectacular.

Other scenic spots are similar to Buddhist temple buildings in Thailand, which I don't quite understand, because climbing stairs has made me breathless. It is a pilgrimage center for Buddhist believers in Xishuangbanna. It's magnificent and exquisite, but it's free!

Maybe I think the name of the Buddhist center has been defiled by collecting money. If I feel a little crooked, I can sneak into Man Ting Park from the main Buddhist temple (I don't know if it will be blocked now), so I can save tickets for 54 yuan.

Man Ting Park: 1700-year-old royal garden in A Dai, with beautiful scenery and lush plants. Behind the park are Banna General Buddhist Temple and Buddhist College, which are the places where the envoys of Southeast Asian countries must go. Tickets to 54 yuan. Spend more than 50 yuan to play in a park, and the landscape is similar to or even worse than that of botanical gardens and Dai gardens. I have no reason to insist that you go.

6. Six must-see attractions: Xishuangbanna Primitive Forest Park (some people say that you don't have to go to Primitive Forest Park after seeing the Botanical Garden, I agree)

Transportation: The scenic spot is close to the urban area. It takes about 1 hour to drive to the primeval forest park. Tickets for 65 yuan are available. Located in Sanchahe Nature Reserve, Mengyang Town, Jinghong, it is the place where Asian elephants live. You can watch the elephant show, the Asian elephant museum and so on. And the only tropical rain forest sightseeing cableway.

7. The eighth attraction that rich people must visit: Wanda Theme Park.

Divided into Dai cultural park and water park, it is a combination of Dai culture and modern science and technology amusement. There are not only jumping machines and roller coasters, but also China's unique musical on ice (Princess Butterfly) and water stunts.

Tickets are expensive and there are many games. Perhaps the experience of Banna Water Park is really different from other places.

9. Nine must-see attractions: Tell Zhuangxi Shuangjing.

I don't know where to find a place to eat, drink and have fun when I get to Jinghong. I don't know how to experience the life of local people. Then sue Zhuang!

"Gaozhuang Xi Shuangjing" is A Dai language, which means "Nine Towers and Twelve Villages". This is a good place. Although it is also newly built and a theme consumption point, it is still very good to see a group of distinctive buildings and eat authentic Dai cuisine without tickets. To go to go on road trip, freelancers and self-help tourists from other places suggest living in Gaozhuang directly.

Postscript:

Banna is the most exotic and tropical tourist destination in Yunnan, and it is worth visiting for a few more days. Menghai and Mengla counties under its jurisdiction are also good tourist destinations, among which Luoda Port in Menghai County can go to Myanmar to experience the life interest of all ethnic groups in the border areas between China and Myanmar.

It should be reminded that there are many tea mountains in Banna, and the tea is also very famous, but most people do not recommend traveling there. It's hard to walk in the rainy season, so there's nothing to play.

In the border areas, you can't help people with things, you can't help people with things, you can't help people with things-because once you find prohibited items in your own things, you can't say clearly, and many people suffer losses. If you find out the drugs, you will be miserable.
