Xishuangbanna is impressive for three main aspects: the tropical rainforest, the Water-Splashing Festival, and the Dai ethnic villages. Therefore, if you are not visiting during the Water-Splashing Festival, it is recommended to go to the Dai Ethnic Park to experience the water-splashing activities, which are quite exhilarating. ◎Attraction Introduction The main scenic area consists of five of the most well-preserved natural villages: Mangjiang (Bamboo Basket Village), Manchunman (Garden Village), Manzha (Chef Village), Manga (Market Village), and Manting (Royal Garden Village), where Dai bamboo houses and ancient Buddhist pagodas complement each other. The Dai Ethnic Park holds two water-splashing events daily, with the schedule detailed in the last image. Transportation to and from Gaozhuang ① The Dai Ethnic Park is located in Olive Dam, about 25 kilometers from Gaozhuang, and is a 30-minute taxi ride away. ② There are shuttle buses from Banna Bus Station to Olive Dam every half hour. At the entrance of the Dai Ethnic Park, there are also shuttle buses back to Gaozhuang, also every half hour, with the last bus at 18:00. ③ There is no suitable public transportation from the Dai Ethnic Park to the Botanical Garden; it is recommended to take a taxi. Popular Tickets Full-price ticket for Dai Ethnic Park: 45 yuan Electric cart ticket: 40 yuan Regarding the electric carts in the Dai Ethnic Park, it can be understood that there are four opportunities to board. Do you need to buy an electric cart ticket? It is 2 kilometers from the entrance of the scenic area to the Manting temple at the far end. If you walk around the scenic area and exit without taking the electric cart, you might walk more than 5 kilometers. You can decide whether to walk or take the electric cart based on your own situation. The boarding locations for the electric cart can be somewhat confusing. When visiting, ask around where to board to avoid taking unnecessary detours. Suggested Itinerary ① Arrive at the Dai Ethnic Park at 12:30 PM, enter the scenic area. Stroll around Mangjiang village and the temple at the entrance (which leads to the water-splashing square). Change clothes, store your bags across from the water-splashing square, and wait for the water-splashing event. ② The water-splashing event starts at 1:30 PM and ends at 2:10 PM. ③ There are public baths in the water-splashing square, 20 yuan per person. After washing up and changing into clean clothes, return to the entrance of the scenic area and take a car to start the tour (first ride), estimated to be around 3 PM. ④ The first stop is Manchunman temple. This place is very worth visiting, and the temple is beautiful. Due to time constraints, we did not visit the village. There is also a peacock garden nearby, which I personally find quite ordinary. Pass through the peacock garden to board the car to Manzha (third ride). ⑥ Then take the car to Manting temple, where there are Tabao trees and a white pagoda (fourth ride, which will return to the entrance of the scenic area), and then exit the scenic area. Please note that at 5 PM, the staff of the electric carts in the scenic area will start to leave work, so make sure not to miss the last cart. As mentioned above, you can also come earlier, visit the inside villages first (allowing more than two hours), then participate in the water-splashing event, and after it ends, change clothes and go home.
