Xishuangbanna | Dai Ethnic Garden·Daily Water-Splashing Festival Carnival

Transportation🚐: We chartered a car for 120 yuan round trip, there are also high-speed trains but only two trips, so plan your time well. We intended to take a shuttle, but after waiting at the bus station for about half an hour, we saw no bus coming. Ticket🎫: 45 yuan for adults, 22.5 yuan for students, 40 yuan/person for the sightseeing car, which is quite necessary. The Dai Ethnic Garden operates on a model of farmers + tourism developers, consisting of five villages. The park is quite large, and the main attractions are not concentrated, mostly consisting of farmers' houses. However, if you want to experience the local dwellings or the characteristics of Dai villages, walking is an option. The scenery is beautiful, and along the way, residents sell their own farm products, with local fruits being quite famous. Water-Splashing💧: The water-splashing times are at 13:30 and 15:30, with the water being warmer in the second round. Plan your time accordingly, and if you want to participate, bring a change of clothes and disposable towels for convenience. ⚠️: As the visit takes a long time, bring some food to replenish energy. You can bring your own small basin for water-splashing or buy one there, which seems to be 5 yuan each. When we went to the Dai Ethnic Garden, we just wanted to participate in the water-splashing, but it turned out to be quite fun. The border wharf is also worth visiting to see the small town across the Lancang River and Northern Myanmar behind the mountains, although we did not take a boat. The stilted buildings and residential buildings of the Dai people also have their own unique charm.
