"Overseas Travel Craze" -- Xishuangbanna

The pandemic has limited domestic tourism to "domestic travel" and "provincial travel". Following the popularity of "Hainan Duty-Free Shops", another dark horse has emerged: "Xishuangbanna", which is adjacent to six Southeast Asian countries. Here, not only is the exotic atmosphere strong, but prices are also affordable. There are temples in Thai-style gold, red, yellow, and green, lush forests, ancient Burmese-style buildings, and World Heritage sites...

Take a walk in the primeval forest to experience unique natural scenery and charming ethnic customs; go to Wild Elephant Valley to feel the authentic rainforest and encounter wild elephants in the forest; visit the Dai Ethnic Garden to see typical Burmese-style pagodas and traditional Dai stilt houses, and join the lively Water Splashing Festival activities.

See, without going abroad, you can enjoy a Southeast Asian-like travel experience in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan.

Big data shows that this National Day holiday presents "new" changes, with tourists' holiday consumption gradually recovering. "New experiences, new services, new travel, new cultural creativity" have become a major trend.
