Jingmai Mountain | Mengben Dai Village

Jingmai Mountain | Mengben Dai Village ❥ Mengben is adjacent to Manggeng Village, and the village layout is similar. It is also a Dai settlement, with the village architecture descending from south to north. The temple in Mengben Village (Golden Pagoda Temple) is separate from the village center, and the village buildings are arranged around the village center. In fact, Mengben Village was established first, and Manggeng was later separated from Mengben. ❥ Mengben Village is composed of one social group, with attractions such as the Dai village, Golden Pagoda, Thousand-Handed Guanyin, Three Trees, and Jingmai Impressions. It is a tourist village in Jingmai Mountain, focusing on developing village Buddhist cultural tourism. In this original Dai village, every family grows tea, and every household makes tea. Tea is like the blood flowing in their veins here. ❥ On the road entering Mengben Village, there are three ancient banyan trees, which represent the story of three elders, the tea planting history of three ethnic groups, and the symbol of harmony and unity among the three ethnic groups. It is said that the Dai and Bulang ethnic groups had a conflict over an inconspicuous piece of land on the tea mountain, which even led to a fight. With the mediation of the Lahu ethnic group leader, they swore a blood oath to become sworn brothers and vowed to be united forever. To ensure that future generations remember this history, the three leaders planted three banyan trees as a testament to their eternal unity. This touching millennium-old story is still told today. ➠ Geographic location: Located in Jingmai Village, Huimin Township, Lancang Lahu Autonomous County, Pu'er, Yunnan.
