    The scenery looks very good and the road is clean and tidy. The style of the stockade building is prominent and the temple is very distinctive! Close to the border with China and Myanmar, at the border monument, you can see the territory of Myanmar opposite through the barbed wire fence.

    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.

    The cable car 🚡 ride was absolutely beautiful, with all the greenery and mist rising. But, it’s 40 minutes one way. You can walk back, which is pretty and easy enough. Feeding the elephants was fun for the kids, but lasts seconds and everyone was shoving my kids to get to the front. The rest was kind of just meh. Elephants performing. I just hope they’re being treated ok. It was very crowded, despite being off season. My daughter really loved seeing the elephants up close, but it just could have offered more education and interest.

    I really enjoyed this because I'm interested in extreme fishing and Ive caught many of the huge carp, catfish and arapaima on display, in Thai lakes. The place is spotlessly clean and odourless. The fish and reptiles have very good living conditions. Some impressive giant salamander there too. There were also beautiful girls from Russia performing a mermaid dance. All the staff are helpful and friendly with directions as there are not enough English signs.

    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!
