Manhena Ancient Village·22 Inn | The Top Choice for a Spring Journey

🌴 Manhena Ancient Village·22 Inn | The Top Choice for a Spring Journey|||🏡 This Spring Festival, I celebrated the New Year in the Manhena Ancient Village in Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna, and was fortunate to choose the 22 Inn as my home for the New Year in Banna. The inn is located in a Dai ethnic village with a 300-year history, right at the entrance of the old village. It's only a 10-minute taxi ride to Gaozhuang Night Market and a 10-minute drive to Manting Park and the Big Buddha Temple. During the day, you can visit the scenic spots, and at night, return to the old village for peace and a deep sleep. Upon first seeing '22', I was amazed! The architecture of the inn features a new Dai-Thai style, with wooden stilt houses, Dai pottery and Southeast Asian wooden window carvings, and Indonesian natural rattan weaving. Every detail exudes a strong 😋 ethnic flavor and the owner's taste and style. On New Year's Eve, the innkeeper held a special Dai 🍲 song and dance dinner for the guests, inviting everyone to celebrate the New Year together. 🔥 This was a rare experience for me in Xishuangbanna. Amidst the joyful singing and dancing👍, I felt the charm of Dai culture🎆 and welcomed the new🎒 year with other guests. In the Dai-style courtyard, couplets and lanterns were used to welcome the New Year, creating a festive atmosphere that was as full as if I were celebrating at my own home. The courtyard of the inn🌿 is one of my favorite places, with its spacious space, swings, hammocks, rocking chairs, accompanied by flowers and green plants, lying down is simply too comfortable. 👉 The children run and play in the courtyard😋, enjoying the joy of freedom. 👉 I like to lie on the lounge chair, watching👀 the children play, feeling the warmth of the sun, and enjoying moments of tranquility. 👉 This is a paradise for children and a great place for adults to relax😄. 🍵 The innkeeper is very skilled in tea ceremony and invites guests to enjoy tea and chat every day. Their tea is very tasty👍, whether it's Iceland raw tea😋, wild black tea😋, or ancient tree white tea, all have an enticing aroma and a rich🍝 taste. After drinking tea, I feel refreshed✨ and invigorated. 🌟 I am grateful to the 22 Inn for bringing me so many wonderful memories, making my trip to Xishuangbanna even more colorful. Here, I not only experienced the charm of Dai culture💕 but also made many friends and had a pleasant time. Next time I come to Xishuangbanna✨, I will definitely choose the 22 Inn again as my accommodation🏡, to continue experiencing this warm and comfortable feeling🍃.
