#china #yunnan #xishuangbanna You can be forgiven for always looking down to watch your step in the Primeval Forest Park, or by looking up at the canopy high above your head, but we found real joy in exploring the details. When we took time to look, we saw a butterfly with wings camouflaged like a leaf just emerging from its cocoon! Our favourite part was pointing out all the houseplants we have at home in their natural habitat.

Located in Xishaungbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, Xishuangbanna Rainforest National Reserve consists of five parts namely Menglun, Mengla, Mengyang, Shangyong and Manggao with a total area of more than 2,854 square km. The virgin tropical forest ecosystem makes it a magnificent and unique rainforest national reserve at home and abroad. As the Chinese most well-preserved virgin rainforest area, this natural reserve owes various and rare wild lives such as Asia elephant, Pantheratigriscorbetti tiger (Indo-Chinese tiger), brown-headed hornbill and green peacock, etc. Visitors can find these rare wild lives living a homey life by taking a tour bus along the roads in the reserve. Visitors can also shoot pictures of these wild lives.

I definitely recommend you to spend an afternoon at the Virgin Forest Park! Here’s some information: “Xishuangbanna Virgin Forest Park includes a peacock reproduction facility, a monkey domesticating base, a large stadium devoted to ethnic activities (the Garden of Ethnic Cultures), and a number of ethnic dwellings displaying the living habitats, the implements and the utensils unique to each ethnic group. There are some 10 ethnic minorities, here, including the Dai, the Hani, the Bulang, the Jinuo, the Lahu, the Wa, and the Yao, whereof the Dai is the largest, comprising one-third of the population.” Once you reach the top of the mountain, you can participate in a water fight. A friend and I participated and it was a blast!!! I highly recommend it! #ThisIsChina #yunnan #xishuangbanna #china #travel #exploreasia

Having traveled several south east Asian countries, when you conjure up ideas of the Mekong you think, floating markets, and small fishing villages, but that mighty river has to begin somewhere, and of course the source is China, and this aquarium takes an in depth look at marine life in this extensive river. Having taken a taxi to what I thought would be untouched rainforest, I was sold multi enterance tickets. Intrigued, I followed the signs and found myself in an aquarium, much of the notice boards were in English, which I loved, and seeing such a large array of fish, in comfortable tanks was wonderful. I learnt a lot at this aquarium and would highly recommend. #aquarium #underthesea #mekongriver

📍 原始森林公园, Yunnan, China ⏰2021.12 There are many primeval forests in Xishuangbanna, China, but I went to the primeval forest park, which can be reached in about 20 minutes by taxi from the city. It is a Chinese national 4A-level park, and you can see wild monkeys, peacocks, etc. inside. There is a unique aquarium at the entrance, which is the Yangtze River Aquarium. It is not a sea creature, but a river creature! The Yangtze River flows from Yunnan Province, China to Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia, and you can see fish, snakes, turtles, and other animals that can be found in the river. The Russian sisters' mermaid show is originally famous, but it has not been held since Corona, and the more famous 7D show was pretty good! After seeing the aquarium, I went inside the park and took a shuttle to the innermost part of the park, and it was a primitive forest. There were dozens of monkeys by the river, and the trees were so lush! There were a few people doing ziplines and they told me to go over a swing bridge, so I thought it was just one short bridge... but I also had the difficult experience of having to walk over four or five rope bridges that were about 30 meters high while backing up was prohibited. Since it was sunset, it was eerie and there were no visitors, so I was afraid of getting lost in the wild, so I quickly looked around and left the primeval forest park 😇 #PleaseWinter #Winter #ChinaTravel #China #Xishuangbanna #SoloTravel

Getting There - 5km from Jinhong Attractions - Aquarium and forest park Hotels - None Food & Restaurants - Lots of local food and coffee Shopping - souvenirs Tourists visit a newly-opened freshwater aquarium at the Xishuangbanna Primitive Forest Park in Xishuangbanna, southwest China's Yunnan province on January 5, 2020. As the first of this kind in China, the aquarium is home to native freshwater species from the Mekong River, freshwater fish species from the Yangtze River and other rare amphibians. I was really impressed with the clean and high standard living conditions for the fish and reptiles. A little difficult to find your way around inside as not many English signs. There is also a 7,D cinema which is well worth doing, kids will love it.

One of the most mesmerizing sights here is the grand peacock release—watching these vibrant birds take flight feels like witnessing spring itself unfurl in dazzling motion. For those craving a dash of adventure, the jungle ziplining experience adds a thrilling perspective, where you soar amidst the treetops, embracing the wild beauty of the rainforest. A place where spring’s spirit is both serene and exhilarating. 🌿✨🦚🌳

#springwander Virgin Forest Park feels alive with the essence of spring—a realm where nature unfolds its vibrant colors. The peacock release and jungle ziplining add a dynamic flair to the experience, a delightful blend of elegance and thrill that mirrors the season’s energy. However, spring’s gentle charm comes with a reminder: avoid visiting on rainy days, as the peacock release is canceled in wet weather. Embrace the sunshine, and let the park’s beauty and activities create memories as bright as the season itself. 🌿✨🦚🌼

Traveling with a baby is like being a commando. This time, I took my three-year-old on an adventure to Xishuangbanna. After five days, we were tired but happy. The scenery was beautiful, the baby was happy, and we also found a great restaurant. I recommend it to all parents! Five-Day Itinerary 🗓Day 1: Starlight Night Market - Thai Coconut Xiang, Gaozhuang Xishuangjing Golden Pagoda Branch ✈️Arrive in Xishuangbanna and check in to a hotel near Gaozhuang to rest. In the afternoon, take your baby to the Starlight Night Market. It's very lively with people coming and going, and the little one's eyes are wide open! There are all kinds of special little things. Buy her some small accessories and she will be very happy. In the evening, go straight to Thai Coconut Xiang, Gaozhuang Xishuangjing Golden Pagoda Branch. The location is easy to find, near the Golden Pagoda. As soon as you enter the store, you are greeted by the Southeast Asian style. The warm yellow lights and special decorations make you feel like you are in Thailand in a second. We ordered their signature dishes. The creamy yellow curry shrimp is a must-order. The rich milk aroma and curry are perfectly blended. The shrimp is fresh and chewy, and it is full of the curry's deliciousness. My daughter and I love it! There is also Thai seafood pineapple fried rice, which is full of ingredients. The sweetness of the pineapple, the salty aroma of the dried meat floss, the deliciousness of the seafood, and the soft and glutinous rice make the taste very rich. My daughter ate a large bowl by herself. The service in the store is also very considerate. The staff will help take care of the children and give them small snacks. 🗓Day 2: Manting Park - Dai Minority Park In the morning, go to Manting Park. It is really beautiful here, with red walls, green trees, and golden roofs. It is especially good for taking pictures. Dress your daughter in beautiful Dai clothes and take lots of beautiful photos. We also watched an elephant show, and the children clapped their hands excitedly. In the afternoon, go to Dai Minority Park to experience the joy of the Water Splashing Festival. Prepare a water gun for your daughter in advance and have fun. Although she was soaked all over, she had a very bright smile. We also visited the Dai bamboo building to learn about Dai culture. 🗓Day 3: Wild Elephant Valley Set off early to Wild Elephant Valley. Take the rainforest sightseeing cable car and overlook the rainforest. It's so shocking. Watch Asian elephants on the elevated elephant viewing trail. If you are lucky, you can also see wild elephant herds. Your daughter will be so excited. Participate in the elephant feeding activity. She carefully feeds the elephants bananas. It's so cute. 🗓Day 4: Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden Arrive at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden in the morning. The exotic flowers and plants in the West District opened our eyes. My daughter was full of curiosity about various plants and kept asking questions. We hired a professional guide to explain along the way, which increased our knowledge. In the afternoon, take a walk in the rainforest in the East District to experience the magic of nature. 🗓Day 5: Primitive Forest Park Go to the Primitive Forest Park in the morning to watch the peacocks being released.
