Follow my 4 days 3 nights itinerary, and you definitely won’t go wrong~ 🌴 Itinerary DAY 1: Gozhuang Xishuangjing → Great Golden Pagoda → Starlight Night Market · Gozhuang Xishuangjing is a must-visit popular spot in Xishuangbanna, filled with Thai-style architecture, every shot looks like a masterpiece · The Great Golden Pagoda is inside Gozhuang, be sure to wear Dai costume for photos · It’s recommended to visit the Starlight Night Market after 7 PM, it’s brightly lit and very beautiful, don’t forget to try the pounded chicken feet DAY 2: Manting Park → Mengle Temple · Manting Park is the Dai king’s backyard garden, riding elephants and feeding parrots is super fun · Mengle Temple is inside the park, with magnificent and unique golden architecture · Recommended to go to Manting Park around 5 PM to watch the sunset DAY 3: Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden → Dai Ethnic Garden · Set off early to the Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden to see water lilies and giant lotus leaves · In the afternoon, go to Dai Ethnic Garden to experience the Water Splashing Festival, remember to bring a change of clothes DAY 4: Wild Elephant Valley → Return trip · Go to Wild Elephant Valley early in the morning before it gets hot, if lucky you can see wild elephants 🍍 Food tips: 1. Wan Thai Lao Coffee in Gozhuang is super delicious 2. Local fruits are cheap and sweet, be sure to try the small pineapples 3. Dai-style barbecue tastes better than the night market, recommended dish: oil-fried beef heart tubes 🚗 Transportation tips: · You can rent a car between attractions, 200-300 RMB/day · Shared electric scooters are very convenient for getting around Gozhuang
