Secret Ailao Mountain

It has to be said that the name of Ailao Mountain is daunting enough, making people think of mist-shrouded peaks, insect valleys and dark dense forests. In fact, "Ailao" was the name of a clan and a mountain in the early Warring States period. In the middle and late Warring States periods, it was also the name of a country. It is as famous as the ancient Dian Kingdom and has a very far-reaching history. According to relevant records, about 2,400 years ago, the "Ailao Yi", a powerful ethnic group with more than 20 different ethnic groups, was an important part of the ancient "Southwestern Yi". They not only founded the ancient Ailao Kingdom, which has been popular for hundreds of years, but also created the extremely influential Ailao culture, which is one of the ancient civilizations in Yunnan history. Ailao Mountain Provincial Scenic Area covers the five counties and cities of Chuxiong, Shuangbai, Jingdong, Zhenyuan and Xinping. These areas have been developed into scenic spots, including the Ailao Mountain Shimen Gorge Scenic Area, the Ancient Tea Horse Road Scenic Area, and the Jinshan Primitive Forest Scenic Area, with complete supporting facilities and services. 📝Note tips: Due to the dense forest and changeable climate, the virgin forest part of Ailao Mountain is very risky for people who are not familiar with the terrain. Therefore, you must be accompanied by a guide who is familiar with the terrain when entering.
