A splendid and beautiful temple that must be visited when going to Xishuangbanna.

🏨 Jinghong Shwedagon Pagoda Temple 🌟Highlights: The first stop to Xishuangbanna is Gaozhuang Xishuangjing. There is a Shwedagon Pagoda Temple that can be seen from a distance from Gaozhuang. It is a golden building with Dai-style characteristics. You can also overlook the entire Starlight Night Market here. Photograph! The main body of the Shwedagon Pagoda Temple is a large pagoda surrounded by four small solid pagodas, representing the other four sceneries outside Jinghong. Keng Tung (Myanmar), Keng Rai (Chiang Rai, Thailand), Keng Mai (Chiang Mai, Thailand), Keng Thong (Luang Prabang, Laos). ❤Reason for recommendation: When walking outside the temple, I feel like I am in Southeast Asia. Everyone likes to take pictures outside, but in fact, entering the main hall is like entering another world! The blue-based main hall gives people a peaceful, solemn and soft feeling, and the murals on the walls and ceiling are also lifelike. It has only been opened to the public not long ago, so not many people have been there! 🕙Business hours: 9:30-11:30, 15:30-22:00 in the inner hall 💰Per capita consumption: Entry to the temple is free, but there is a maintenance fee of 30 yuan to visit the main hall! Staff will hand out shoe covers at the entrance, and there will be a full explanation of the process inside the hall, and you can receive a portion of nectar water and an auspicious rope. 📝Note tips: 1. Don’t litter or make loud noises 2. Cannot wear suspenders, vests, skirts and shorts that do not reach the knee, etc. 3. Taking photos and videos in the main hall (I took the photos with permission) 4. It is forbidden to touch the murals and pillars on the walls 5. Respect local customs and be a civilized tourist 👍Most recommended: There are different scenery here during the day and at night. If you happen to come to Xishuangbanna, you can visit it if you have time. It is a good place!
