geographical environment

The overall planning of the Dai nationality Park covers an area of 336 hectares. The main scenic area is composed of five well preserved Dai natural villages: ManJiang (mietao Village), manchunman (Huayuan Village), manzha (chefs Village), manga (Ganji Village) and Manting (Palace Huayuan Village). There are 326 households and 1536 people in total. Dai garden is the soul of Xishuangbanna. It is the only folk eco-tourism scenic spot in Xishuangbanna that focuses on the Dai history, culture, religion, sports, architecture, customs, clothing, food, production and life. The exquisite and unique Dai bamboo buildings and Buddhist pagodas here are hidden in the green trees, showing a kind of nature, simplicity and tranquility. Around the bamboo house, there are tropical fruits such as bananas, mangoes, litchi, munaiguo, and papaya, as well as tall and straight coconut trees, palm trees with shell leaves, and graceful areca trees, which make the Dai bamboo house particularly enchanting. Looking from a high place, the five Dai villages in the park seem to be covered by a huge and beautiful green peacock tail. You can't see the village and bamboo buildings at all. You can only see the Lancang River on the right and the Longde lake on the left clearly. You can only recognize the true face by hiking.

Landscape architects say that the Dai garden is a model of garden garden; historians say that the Dai garden is a living museum of national history; botanists say that the Dai garden is a gene bank of the plant kingdom; writers say that the Dai garden is a fairyland on earth, a paradise far away from downtown, which is hard to find In May 2006, nine famous writers, such as Shu Ting, Guan Renshan, Zhang Kunhua, Sun Huifen and Ou Zhide, came to the Dai nationality garden to collect folk customs. They were intoxicated by the colorful ethnic customs and the original national culture. They expressed such feelings: Yunnan is famous for Xishuangbanna, and Xishuangbanna is beautiful for the Dai nationality garden!

A song "want to find a home in a bamboo house" sings out the endless charm of olive dam, a tender and affectionate Dai village;

A "water splashing festival every day" deduces the ancient frontier ethnic harmonious and happy festival feast.

In the early 1960s, Feng mu, a famous essayist, was lucky to meet the butterfly Festival on the forest road in manzha, and wrote the famous butterfly Festival by the Lancang River. It's an eye opener and a memorable experience. The magnificent, exquisite and ancient Buddhist temples and pagodas show the long history of Buddhism and their extraordinary status in the eyes of the Dai people. Manchun Buddhist temple and Manting Buddhist temple have a history of more than one thousand years, and they have accumulated rich and profound Buddhist culture of the Theravada sect. There are famous murals in the Buddhist temple, such as the reincarnation of rudaimi and the story of Sakyamuni.

There are two water splashes in Dai garden every day: the first one is at 14:50, the second one is at 16:30. The first one can't catch up with the second one. Anyway, we live in olive dam, and others "drive ducks" to pass by. Let's take a self-help tour. We have time to have a deep experience. We are not in a hurry. We are leisurely and contented.
