    When traveling to Xishuangbanna, I specifically hired a car to visit the boundary marker and border line. I booked tickets for two people online, so there was no need to pick up tickets on-site; I could just scan the code to enter the park, which was very convenient. The village is small, so there's no need to hire a guide. Just follow the signs, walk around, and stop as you please until you reach the boundary marker. After visiting the boundary marker, we had lunch nearby; 28 yuan per person was a reasonable price.

    The scenery was beautiful, but since it's this season, most of the fruits were gone. Besides some papayas and jackfruits, there were very few others. However, it's still worth a visit for tourists from northern regions.

    The park isn't very big overall, and the facilities are indeed old. However, for 40 yuan, seeing so many animals is still reasonably priced. You can also visit the adjacent ethnic minority cultural park while you're there.

    Wild Elephant Valley is a worthwhile destination for children. They can learn about elephants' habits, observe them up close, and even feed them. They also saw butterflies, deer, lizards, and snakes. The children had a wonderful time.

    You can go. It's the 7D movie. It's not good to put backpacks on the ground (they said to put them under the chairs, but actually it was the ground under the chairs). There is a small table but you can't put them there. They said you can put more bags there. In fact, there were only two bags in our row, so they could fit them. Even if they couldn't, the scenic spot should add tables. But overall it's good.

    Thanks to Guide No. 93, Xingxing, for my Jinuo Mountain rainforest hike, the experience was absolutely fantastic! His explanations were incredibly clear and fluent, covering even the smallest details of the rainforest, which I learned a lot from. The route was perfectly planned, making the hike very comfortable and effortless. The activities were fun and exciting, and I had a blast the whole time. The best part was the photography; Xingxing took amazing pictures, with perfect composition and angles, and he was also very humorous, ensuring we had a great time. He's definitely worth choosing!

    I visited here on December 4th, 2025. It's about an hour's drive from Gaozhuang in Xishuangbanna, quite far, and public transportation is inconvenient, making it more suitable for a road trip. There's a 10 yuan fee per vehicle to enter the village, but no entrance fee. The village is small and very quiet. It's a Dai village, and every house is quite spacious, with beautiful flowers blooming in the courtyards. Mango and jackfruit trees are scattered throughout the yards. There are cafes, restaurants, guesthouses, and shops selling local specialties. Eating and drinking are plentiful and inexpensive. There's also a beautiful and sizable Dai temple in the village. It's a great place for a slow-paced trip, enjoying the tranquility, nature, comfortable sunshine, and beautiful scenery.

    I highly recommend this rainforest trekking spot. Our family of three had a stress-free trek. I especially want to recommend our guide, Sister Ka, who helped take care of the kids the whole time. The kids loved her. Sister Ka's photography skills are also top-notch; she's perfect at posing and finding the right angles 👍. Highly recommended!

    The entrance fee to the Dai Ethnic Garden is not expensive, but the sightseeing bus fare inside is quite expensive at 60 yuan per person. Moreover, the staff said that if you want to see the water splashing, you can't sit on the sightseeing bus and have to walk. The management is rather chaotic and needs improvement.

    The Pu'er City Museum has two floors. The first floor introduces the distribution, customs, and clothing of the ethnic minorities in Pu'er.
