Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture Take a trip to Xishuangbanna and experience the slower pace of life. For the last stop in Yunnan, I chose Xishuangbanna. Upon arriving in Xishuangbanna, it felt as hot as the weather in Guangdong, but luckily there was a breeze which made it cool when it blew~ On the same day, I chose to visit the Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden and the Dai Ethnic Park. The botanical garden is really big, but I only bought a ticket for the eastern area because we were all too lazy to walk, so we chose to ride in an electric cart. For those interested in and knowledgeable about plants, a visit is still quite nice. The Dai Ethnic Park, just in time for the first water-splashing activity in the afternoon, the atmosphere there was good, and it's only a few hundred meters walk from the water-splashing square to the pier~ I also chose to ride in an electric cart around the Dai Ethnic Park, but if you have time, you can choose to walk and take a leisurely stroll. On the way back, I stumbled upon the Mekong River Viewing Platform, which is quite niche with not many tourists. Spending 10 yuan on a bottle of water there allows you to go up and enjoy the view, which is quite expansive, and you can take some photos on top.

We only went to the Starlight Night Market that day, there are many photography shops, everyone should discern, if you have enough budget, I suggest choosing the ones with more stores and more customers, although they are all assembly line princesses, but the big stores are basically more guaranteed. Choosing the right style is very important, my friend and I chose the Western Region Princess, but due to the problems of styling + photographer + ugly appearance, we didn't post any of the final photos, and we didn't even bother to look at them. We stayed at the Manxi 7 Island Hotel, the hotel is independent, the room is very large and clean, it is located inside Gaozhuang, very close to the Starlight Night Market, it is not noisy at night, we are very satisfied with our stay! During the 4-day itinerary, we went to Manting Park + Total Buddha Temple (40 yuan), Dai Nationality Park (45 yuan), Forest Park (40 yuan), Prajna Temple (free). Manting Park is really a good place to take pictures, the green plant coverage is very high, most of the pictures you find are taken here, it is recommended to do some makeup and take pictures here, if you don't know how to do it, there are many 'little bees' in the park, 100 yuan for 30 pictures, much more than the photographers at the Starlight Night Market. The Total Buddha Temple is inside Manting Park, commercial photography is not allowed here, you can only find a good angle and take more pictures. The Dai Nationality Park is actually a scenic spot composed of many villages, we took a bus at the Banna Passenger Station in the morning, 10 yuan per person, the Dai Nationality Park is actually just walking around in the village, there are many villagers selling fruits on both sides of the road, starfruit is one yuan each directly picked from the tree, papaya is the same, thumb bananas are quite delicious. The most important thing in the Dai Nationality Park is the water splashing activity in the water splashing square, you can also experience the joy of Dai Di here! Just watching them splashing each other in the pool is very interesting. There is no need to go to the Forest Park specifically, the journey is far, and there are no entertainment activities, it is just climbing and oxygenating, there are such climbing parks in many places, charging 40 yuan for the entrance fee is a bit of a rip-off. The white tower of Prajna Temple is really beautiful, it only takes 10 minutes to check in and take pictures, it depends on your choice, I think it's great to come here to check in! The food here is all Southeast Asian style, we ate at Chunwuli, Xiaoyu Daijia, Qingmei, Wantai, Cool Thai, recommend Xiaoyu Daijia, Qingmei, it's really delicious.
