Amway is over, let’s talk about accommodation and food


Hotel recommendation: Xishuangbanna Yuntou Sheraton Hotel


I have been here a few times, and I basically stay at this hotel. This is the closest international five-star hotel to Xishuangbanna Gasa International Airport. Every time I go to Banna for the first few days and when I am about to leave, Qiuqiu will move here. It is not too convenient to fly, and the driving distance is less than 5 kilometers; In the evening, the hotel also has a shuttle bus to go to the Starlight Night Market, which is extremely considerate; super strong welcome ceremony, dancing with the peacocks, outdoor swimming pool, hot spring, Zhuangyuan Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles, Dai-style restaurants...don’t want to leave after staying here?

You may be a little tired seeing this, but don’t panic, the food recommendation will be delivered immediately



Tips: The urban area of ​​Jinghong itself is not big, so Qiuqiu’s transportation in the city is mainly "Little Green Orange", which is very convenient; of course, Qiuqiu also used "Little Green Orange" to measure the corners of Banna , especially in the evening, racing against the setting sun, the scenery is also unique


Da Nai (synonym for "milk") snack bar


"No. 1 on Xishuangbanna's Hot Snacks and Noodles List", the name of the shop is like the proprietress [the word 1w is omitted here]; the shop is small, but the taste is really good, it is worth queuing to taste; Vietnamese roll noodles, vegetable wrapped fish, mango glutinous rice, all kinds of pound The dishes are all ordered and the average per capita is not more than 50, which is delicious

Menghai Roast Chicken Restaurant & Lao Hui Roast Chicken


The environment of these two stores is at the level of "fly restaurants", and the locations are still the same. The key is that the taste is not the same; therefore, when you go to see which one you don't need to queue, go to whichever one; the roast chicken is basically 1 person 1 Only or 1.5 points, the point is enough, otherwise it may not be added

Liu Yan BBQ


There are a few barbecues in the night market, so everyone will not be allowed to "step on the pit"; this one was also brought by a friend, and I was really surprised, and it was a few streets away from the night market barbecue; wrapped tofu, oily soy series (all on !), secret potato cubes; boiled fish with passion fruit, all kinds of skewers... my mouth is watering just writing


lolo igloo


This restaurant is mainly for snacks. When I’m in Banna, I’ll check in every now and then. Stir-fried glutinous rice balls are a must every time. Cold rice noodles and lettuce-wrapped beef are also great. If you like desserts, don’t miss the signature Paoluda


Red Tusk Elephant Dai Food Garden


This old shop is very tasteful, and the whole environment is designed like in a stockade; you can taste all kinds of Yunnan dishes here, and the small pot rice noodles are the best in the audience; freshly opened coconuts are a must for meals, so refreshing

Handi coconut jelly roll powder


This is a snack bar in Gaozhuang Xishuangjingli. It was rated as "No. 1 in the Jinghong Snack Interview Review List". Fungus, shiitake mushrooms, dipped in the secret dipping sauce, and Bashide board; and a coconut jelly, which is smooth and refreshing, and it is quite enjoyable


Two Ma Tavern


If you don’t want to play Dai Di, go to Erma Tavern to drink some small bars; young people like Dai Di, but Qiuqiu really can’t join, but the fruit wine and music in Erma Tavern are still very popular. Recently, Erma Tavern jointly "Dai Show", there are singing and dancing interactions every night, and it is really a strong alliance; when I return to Banna in early July, I have to go to get excited

Xishuangbanna is the place where Qiuqiu has stayed the longest besides Chongqing and Chengdu. This "little Thailand" is worth checking in.


Finally, let me share with you the "Not Busy Bazaar" that Qiuqiu accidentally visited in Banna


It’s the first contact and the first time to participate. It seems that everyone is very idle and only enjoys their own small life; all kinds of handmade crafts, food, coffee, desserts, T-shirts, furniture, etc., can be found here I found it; the 5th issue was held under the lychee tree in a hurry, which is a bit interesting

I want to pick a piece, a green leaf

Want to write a little poem, a little poem

tell you tell you

Xishuangbanna always has, always has the feeling of forgetting to go home
