Xishuangbanna 6D5N Photo Guide.

For those who love taking photos, a trip is not complete without taking a ton of photos! So, this time in Xishuangbanna, I chose where to stay and eat based on where I could take the best photos. After experiencing it myself, I want to share some outfit and photo spot ideas with my sisters who are planning to visit Xishuangbanna!! Photos 2-4: Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I would say this is the most worthwhile attraction of this trip to Xishuangbanna. Photos 5-7: Manting Park and Zongfo Temple (Zongfo Temple is right next to the exit of Manting Park, but you can't wear short skirts or sleeveless tops in Zongfo Temple. You might not be able to enter if you're wearing rented Dai costumes, so you need to bring another set of clothes or a jacket) Photos 8-10: Siva Oasis Resort, Egyptian design style. Photos 11-12: Cloud Star Hotel, the selling point is its rooftop pool. It's perfect for taking photos during the blue hour, and you'll feel like you're in Kuala Lumpur in a second. Photo 13: Ben's House, it has a bit of a Thai vibe. Photo 14: Chunsanxi Shangbanshan Hotel, the green pool on the hillside will make you feel like you're in the Maldives in a second. Photos 15-16: Xia Wang Southeast Asian Restaurant Photo 17: Thaibanna Select Designer Thai Restaurant (same restaurant where Zhao Lusi took photos) Photo 18: Puzuo Rainforest Thai Restaurant (I don't really recommend this one, the food is not good, and there's only one small corner where you can take photos of the big golden pagoda) Photo 19: Lai Zhen Xiaoyuan, Starlight Night Market Branch, a restaurant I stumbled upon. The food was surprisingly good and the second-floor terrace is perfect for taking photos. It has a strong vacation vibe.
