This trip to Banna is to take my parents with me. It is relatively rare, so the expectations are high. Once people have high expectations, it is often difficult to achieve what they want. Except for the accommodation that satisfies us, other aspects are not satisfactory. It’s not that the scenic spots in Banna are not beautiful, but as a tourist city, it has dug too many “holes” for us, which seriously affects the experience. Let’s follow me to have a look.
of Banna properties
We stayed in Banna for a total of four days. On the first day, we lived in Jinghong City, and the experience was so-so. For the remaining three days, we stayed at Yunmeiting Inn in Xishuangbanna, next to the Botanical Garden of Mengle Chinese Academy of Sciences. My parents and I like this inn very much. It has a strong Dai style, full of tropical rainforest style, and the surrounding environment is also very good. Compared with the tickets for Banna attractions, this inn is the most cost-effective consumption, and the store service Awesome, serving my parents obediently is the most satisfying part of our trip to Banna, so I must like it.
Banna Attractions
Most of the scenic spots in Banna have the characteristics of virgin forests and tropical rainforests. Before going there, I searched for guides on the Internet. Many friends said that the tropical rainforests in Banna have been replaced by rubber trees, and they no longer have the rainforest style of the past. I haven’t been there before, and we don’t know, but we went to the rainforest areas such as Wangtianshu, Tropical Rainforest Valley and the Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. I think it’s okay. If you don’t have enough time, I suggest you go to the Tropical Rainforest Valley and the Botanical Garden.
The tropical rainforest is very primitive, more like the jungle we saw in the movie. The botanical garden is next to the Yunmeiting Inn where we live. There are seven parks in it. The scenery is really good and the air is better. It is my parents' favorite. If there is only one scenic spot in the tropical rainforest, then go to the botanical garden.
In the four days in Banna, we visited the original forest park, Jinuo Shanzhai, Manting Park, Starlight Night Market and a day trip to the China-Myanmar border. There are peacocks in the primeval forest park, but not as many as expected. Fortunately, the air is good and the forest coverage is extremely high. Jinuo Shanzhai is the last certified ethnic minority in China. Every 20 people arrange a tour guide to introduce the history of the ethnic group, there are singing and dancing performances, and snacks, fruits and special foods are also good.
Manting Park is more attractive to me is the bonfire party, opposite the Lancang Mekong River, it is quite romantic at night. A one-day trip to the China-Myanmar border is too tm boring. Before I went, I imagined stepping on the two countries. After I went, I could only look at the office building for entry and exit from a distance, and I had to pay for the meals. My mentality collapsed. , Everything was acceptable before this, but this day messed up all good impressions and seriously affected my mood.

Banna Tourism Lightning Protection Guide
1. Keep your eyes open when chartering a car. Many of them are illegal cars. 2. For a one-day trip to the China-Myanmar border, you must understand the itinerary, ask about the details of the route, attractions, meals, whether there is shopping and extra charges, etc. 3. Know the fare before making a guide to the attractions. If you feel that the price is not high, you can choose not to go. 4. There are a lot of tropical fruits in Banna, but it is recommended not to buy them on the roadside, it is best to go to shopping malls or supermarkets to buy them.
There will be "pitfalls" in any tourist city, and this is unavoidable. I just hope that everyone can avoid these pitfalls to obtain a better travel experience. In general, the attractions and accommodation in Banna are still very satisfactory, but the consumption is really expensive. Apart from these factors, the trip to Banna is not bad. This "okay" is because my parents are happier and smile a lot. Whatever it is, it's good if they like it.
