Walking into the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, it is like crossing into a lush rainforest world. It has more than 13,000 tropical plants, which is like a “repository” of plants. My favorite is the Victorian King Lotus Pool, where huge lotus leaves float on the water and can support people to sit on it, which is full of fun. There is also the elevated bird's eye view of the plank road, and the view of the woods and birds from above, especially the sense of ritual close to nature. The park not only has a dense tropical rainforest, but also palm gardens, orchid gardens, bamboo gardens, medicinal plants and other theme areas, each step has been found. I smelled a faint fragrance of flowers in the orchid garden, felt the coolness in the bamboo forest, and experienced the fun of adventure deep in the forest. It is recommended to set aside a full day to walk slowly, it is best to avoid the hot season, I also saw a group of local elderly people leisurely painting on the grass that day, the atmosphere is very leisurely. The entire botanical garden is both a scientific research base and a natural oasis in the city, bringing a soothing and amazing experience.
The Tropical Botanical Park is not very understandable unless you are a researcher. It is quite interesting to take pictures with it as a huge tropical plant backdrop. It is rare to see so many huge plants in the north. It is a good idea to take a walk or participate in the firefly activities at night if you have enough time.

The first feeling of the Wild Elephant Valley is that the vitality of the tropical rainforest is coming. The elevated viewing plank road allows people to safely observe the elephants in the sprinkling, foraging, and playing, and the behemoths are so gentle and cute. I also especially like the rainforest cableway. When it is slowly raised, it can overlook the entire forest. If an elephant appears under the forest, there is a sense of surprise in an instant. In addition to elephants, the butterfly garden and snake garden in the park are also amazing, and the colors are diverse and eye-catching. In the afternoon, the sun passes through the gap, mottled light and shadow dance with animals, especially the unique atmosphere of the tropical rainforest. The whole trip was about four or five hours, in order to see the wild elephants, but also deliberately went early in the morning, and really saw the elephants slowly walking by, heard their noses sucking water and stepping on the ground, the heart followed the beating. The nature and animals here retain the original wildness, and the shock is unforgettable for a long time.
[Scenery] Rainforest herd elephants, wild fun! **Step into the Wild Elephant Valley is surrounded by tropical rainforest green waves, vines are entangled, birdsong monkeys leap, like a natural ecological museum. But whether the wild elephant can see it depends on luck. [Fun] The core highlight is the elephant school performance - Asian elephants play football, dance, interact with people, smart and gentle, and love; rainforest elephant project can follow the elephant group for a walk up close, feel the childish fun of elephant treasure and grab food. Butterfly Garden 🦋 Lanyuan is colorful, high-altitude plank road overlooks the wonders of the rain forest, only wild elephants are difficult to find

Yunnan ethnic village gives me a wonderful feeling of crossing multiculturalism. The village has restored the villages of 12 to 26 ethnic groups. The three tea ceremony of the Bai nationality, the water splashing festival of the Dong village, and the torch festival of the Yi nationality are as lively as participating in the scene. I walked through the bamboo building, watched dances, and tasted handmade snacks, as if I had enjoyed a feast of Yunnan ethnic minorities. My favorites are Dongzhai and Yi Village. The architectural style and natural landscape are against each other, making people feel that every step is a local story. The elephant show and the night laser water curtain show are also very pleasant, adding a sense of modernity and ritual. Although there are many tourists during the festival, the atmosphere is warm and the culture is authentic and enthusiastic. Yunnan National Village is not only a photo location, but also an experience of deeply understanding Yunnan national culture. For me, what is left here is a journey of the soul being touched by diversity and history.
The main thing here is to understand some characteristics of each ethnic group, but in fact, the arrangement of time is a big problem. I want to know more about at least a whole day, such as just a stroll, a half-day is almost the same.

It is inconvenient to change paper tickets to enter the park. When I arrived at the entrance, I learned that I had to change to paper tickets to enter the park. After entering the park, I had to walk one kilometer to get to the peacock to fly. The battery car needs to be bought, which is far away. I went to the place where the Yi people splashed water and felt nothing interesting. The place where the Hani people live is OK.
The peacock performance here is great, I have never seen so many peacocks, and they are very good! The virgin forest is not so amazing, the monkeys are very happy!

The most fun itinerary in Xishuangbanna is the rainforest hiking. It is very strong to walk on the river and follow the stream. It is a small group of 6 people registered on the Internet (in fact, there are more than 20 people divided into groups). The leader of the Jinuo family is very patient to accompany the children to play, really good.
Really recommend, this time with my mother, there are not many people in the off-season, there is a chance to take the baby, a talent more than 100, this price is absolutely good, the rain forest meal is also good, only the tree down line time is a bit long, about 1 hour, other projects do not have to queue for too long, The swings that stand and sit are very fun, and my mother is also very happy. 😁

Overall, Yunnan Safari Park feels okay after a circle. Although the commercialization is indeed serious, after all, the number of shops is not as large as animal enclosures, which is flat. However, the zoo is for parents to come and consume, commercialization is not unreasonable compared to the ancient town of net red, not to mention that even if you don't spend extra, you can see animals up close.
Yunnan Safari Park is the largest and best zoo I have ever been to. I feel that feeding giraffes inside is better than Guangzhou's, and the monkeys inside give people a good sense of joy. It is really worth recommending to everyone.

The battery car only has a single round trip. It takes a long time to walk. The facilities in the whole scenic spot are not perfect. Animals are not too much. Spend money to feed animals 💰 20/time. The scenic spot is in the mountains. There are many vegetation and the air is good. The parking fee is cheap and five yuan. In general, it still needs to be improved.
I came to Sun River before the Spring Festival. To be honest, it is quite far away. It took a lot of effort to make a special trip. There are not many kinds of animals in it, but the scenery is quite leisurely. In addition, many animals can be effectively interacted with, not to mention the Internet celebrity red panda, and rhinos can be touched. I also met a very cute little owl, and I could take pictures with it and touch it. The overall experience is good, but the cost performance is a bit low, including the cost performance of the price and the distance.

It's worth coming, especially to find a professional explanation. It sounds very sensational. It's much richer than visiting alone. This money is worth it! I have to come next time. If I want to visit all, half a day is definitely not detailed enough, at least two days.
The explanation is very good, from ancient to present, in-depth, from the origin, development, experience, the permeability of the talk, coherence, let you understand very clearly. The two old ladies are also very interested in listening, not boring, and spiritual. Going out and saying that they must give the young man a good review!

I went there after the May Day holiday. Although nine projects were closed for maintenance, it was still a good experience overall. It was really satisfying to have the whole place to myself with few people. The two roller coasters were also very friendly, but I didn't dare to ride them. I liked the iceberg one and could ride it twice or more. The other projects were also great, and each time lasted long enough. The aerial train can take tourists to the east and west (or north and south) areas, which is very convenient and saves walking time. The park is well planned. It would be even more perfect if there was a family electric car. In a word, the experience was good!
very good ...
