I won at mahjong in the border town of Ruili

Traveling in Mangshi, today I drove to the border town of Ruili, where you can feel the atmosphere of Myanmar 🇲🇲 without leaving the country. Accidentally, even my phone's time zone switched to Myanmar's. From Mangshi🚗Ruili, it takes about 1.5 hours, all on the highway, and the road conditions are very 👌🏻 How to spend a day in Ruili❓ 📍Jiele Golden Pagoda: A 🆓 open attraction, you need to take off your shoes to enter, there are very few people, only a handful of locals, and the golden pagoda under the sun is really beautiful ☀️ (Almost no tourists) 📍Jiegao Port: No tickets required, there's a commercial street and a small market within the port area, and right across is 🇲🇲 (Some tourists, but not crowded) 📍One Village Two Countries: 🎫39, you can see many attractions with features of both countries, and a jade stone border is quite unique. There are costume rentals for photography 📷 in the scenic area, but the part across the border is not open yet. (Some tourists, but not crowded) 📍Jiedong King Banyan Tree: A 500-year-old super big banyan tree🌳, very spectacular. (Almost no tourists) 📍Total Buddha Temple: A very photogenic temple, where you can watch the sunset 🌇 from the mountaintop. (Almost no tourists) If time permits, you can also go to 📍Moli Waterfall and hike to see the tropical rainforest. For dining 🍴, you can go to the Myanmar Thai Special Tea Restaurant, which has a very Southeast Asian atmosphere. It's busy at noon but the turnover is quick. The buttered pancakes with fresh milk are super sweet and delicious 👍🏻, and the iced milk tea is rich and I really like it without sugar. There are many people in Mangshi for the long holiday, so if you have time, go to Ruili to experience the slow life with an exotic touch ❤️

Can the swings that once crossed borders in a village divided between two countries still swing across the frontier?
