Xishuangbanna Manjian Park is located in the land of Nanshao, where the plant species and biodiversity are perfectly protected in place, many rare tropical plants are y touched, is a very suitable for children to go to the parent-children's paradise, the following to share with you the park's playability analysis.
Manxiang Park, also known as the Manxiang Royal Garden, is the oldest park in Xishuangbanna, but also was the royal garden of the King of Xishuangbanna Dai, "Dai royal culture, Dai folk culture, Buddhist culture" three major characteristics of the park, the park has a hill, the river, tropical plants, and has a strong ethnic humanities landscape, is a natural village-style park. It is a natural village park.
In addition to the landscape, culture and architecture, there are many other points of interest, the park in the morning when there are ethnic minority song and dance performances, every day at regular intervals there are elephant performances, parrot performances, the park is connected to the General Buddha Temple, you can stroll together with the General Buddha Temple. In the evening, there is a large-scale cultural performance of "Night of Lancang-Mekong River" in the park, and after the bonfire party, you can also release lanterns in the river to pray for blessings.
Entering the park
The first thing you see when you enter the park is a bronze statue honoring Premier Zhou Enlai. Premier Zhou was dressed in Dai clothing, left hand holding a water bowl, right hand holding an olive branch, this is the early 1960s when the Premier came to Xishuangbanna and Myanmar Prime Minister met, to participate in the Dai Water Festival scene. The left side of the bronze statue also has two linden trees planted by the Princess of the Kingdom of Thailand to symbolize Sino-Thai friendship.
Behind the bronze statue of Premier Zhou is the Zhangha Pavilion. Here at 11:00 every day at noon there will be a minority culture song and dance performance - Zhangha "spring joy" story, the most enthusiastic welcome ceremony of the Hani people, you can feel their "bumping buttocks" ceremony and bamboo stick dance. There is only one show per day, so you have to organize your time wisely to enjoy the songs and dances of the ethnic minorities. I came here in the afternoon and regretted not seeing it.
The Dai Wang Palace, also not far from the door, the golden-colored building looks particularly dazzling, golden very royal style style.
Inside the palace, it is splendid
All the way inside is the royal garden of the Dai King and his consort, covered with tropical plants and flowers, the whole park is lush and green.
About the Manghang Royal Garden, there is a local saying that, according to legend, when the Dai Wangfei came to play, the beautiful scenery here attracted the soul of the Wangfei, and therefore named the Chunhuan Park, which means "Garden of the Soul" in Dai meaning. The garden has beautiful scenery, the quicksand river runs through the whole garden, walking in between, blue ripples, vine climbing kudzu around, full of exotic flowers and trees.
The royal style of the Dai people in the past, where there are both natural landscapes created by the earth and heaven, as well as subtle gardens and humanistic architecture.
There is a bridge over the lake, and walking across this bridge is the Release Lake.
The Life Release Lake in Manjung Park is a place where Buddhist believers in Xishuangbanna release their lives, and is one of the most famous life release lakes in Southeast Asia. It is an important Buddhist event for the Dai people. During the Water Festival and Buddhist festivals, the Dai people will come here to release life for peace and good luck.
From the release lake you can shoot the bridge at the time of coming, the building on top of the bridge with the tropical trees on both sides of the river, shoot out very nice.
The steps, very much like the one on Suthep Mountain in Chiang Mai, are more like a smaller version of that. I deliberately take that to do a comparison

Man Listening Park has a white pagoda building, is an imitation of the construction of the "Man Fei Long White Pagoda", the tower is a gourd-shaped, white tower, the Dai people believe in the ancient architecture of the Southern Buddhism masterpiece of architecture, has a very high artistic and cultural value.
Total Buddha Temple
Total Buddha Temple and Man Listening Park next to the southwest side of Man Listening Park, basically people stroll through Man Listening Park will go to the Total Buddha Temple, the Total Buddha Temple is free of admission, if you have to come back to Man Listening Park afterward, remember to keep the tickets.
Xishuangbanna General Buddha Temple is the center of Xishuangbanna Buddhist believers to worship Buddha, but also Xishuangbanna Buddhist temple in the highest level of Buddhist temple. Legend has it that it was built by two Southern Buddhism monks who came from Burma to propagate Buddhism, and it has a history of more than one thousand years so far, and it is one of the earliest Southern Buddhism monasteries established in Xishuangbanna, with a long history and deep fates, and it has a pivotal position in the hearts of Dai people.
The temple is brilliant, this exotic flavor as if people think they are in Thailand, but also imagine the appearance of Xishuangbanna, find a good angle to take pictures will be very good. There are a lot of girls wearing Dai costumes to this side of the portrait photo, if you have enough time, really recommend a set of minority style travel photography.
Manjung Park Elephant Show
Watch an elephant show, is also one of the wonderful experience to come to Manjung Royal Garden, in addition to enjoying the wonderful elephant show, ordinary tourists can also participate in the interaction with elephants, but after reading the news of the Thai elephant out of control hurt people I still do not dare to try, I'd better look at it. Personally, I feel there is no need to go to the Wild Elephant Valley after seeing the elephant show here, it's far and expensive over there.
Elephant shows are held three times a day at the Royal Elephant Park, at 10:30am, 14:50pm and 16:30pm
The Lancang - Mekong Night
In addition to the daytime sightseeing tours, the Mangkhang Park also has nighttime performances, which are ticketed separately. The night performance of "Lancang-Mekong River" in Mangyong Park is a collection of cultural characteristics of six Lancang-Mekong River Basin countries, namely China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam, as well as folklore performances of six ethnic minorities, namely the Dai, Jinuo, Brown, Lahu, Yao, and Hani, that reside in Xishuangbanna Prefecture. Folklore performance. The whole party has two hours of performance time, set of ethnic customs, exotic scenery, funny and humorous on-site interaction in one.
At the end of the party, there is also the activity of releasing river lanterns
Yunnan, due to the gathering of ethnic minorities, there are many such large-scale live performances in various tourist destinations, such as the Lijiang Thousand Years of Love, Impression of Lijiang, and so on. I did not watch the evening "Lancang River - Mekong River Night", look at the photo is still very beautiful, but out of the park when I found the door crowded with waiting for the night show of the adults, I do not know if the experience will not be good. I'm not sure if the experience will be good or not. I would like to complain here, Xishuangbanna is simply going to be attacked by the elderly group, but also the disaster area of unqualified tourists, whether it's the elephant show in the Mangyong Park, or the peacock release in the primitive forest park, the show started moncler outlet online all from the seat up to squeeze into the first row, not caring about the audience's feelings behind them.
