Things to do in Menglian

Emmmm, well, it's not worth coming all the way to Ruili because of it. You don't necessarily have to come here to experience the local customs and culture. It's not very interesting. It's just for taking pictures and checking in!

The Tropical Flower Garden is closer to the city center, within a short walking distance. Compared to the Tropical Botanical Garden, the western section has a denser collection of attractions and some interactive exhibits. Overall, if I were to choose again, I would probably opt for the Tropical Flower Garden, as it would be a more relaxed trip.

The scenery was just incredible. It looked like AI because it was so so so unbelievable on the picture but you don't have to worry because as you see them in the picture is really as they are in the reality. You need a little bit of 4 hours to complete the whole thing, if you take the elevator its faster. If you have more strength and more time, you can walk through the whole way, but if it's rainy or if it's sunny, I really advise you to take either the small car or the elevator

Highly recommend this trip! The attractions are clean and beautiful, perfect for relaxing. We drove there from the city; the road was flat, and the entire scenic area is very large with a beautiful environment.

Rare plants, petrified wood, and free-roaming peacocks make this a perfect spot for a half-day getaway and photo opportunities. 🌟 Key Highlights • Ecology and Wonders: A natural oxygen bar with dense ancient trees and lush shade; rare petrified wood and silicified timber dating back hundreds of millions of years; abundant unique stones and root carvings. • Interactive Experiences: Peacocks roam freely without fear, with a high chance of witnessing them display their plumage; the Zhou Enlai Memorial Pavilion holds historical significance. • Photography and Family Fun: Bougainvillea, banyan trees, and bamboo groves offer stunning photo opportunities; ideal for family walks, approximately a 2-hour visit.

The scenery of Mengsuo Longtan in the early morning is absolutely beautiful. It is very pleasant to circle the lake in the morning and evening. The circle around the lake is about six kilometers, which is worth coming. The scenery around the lake here is picturesque, and the mist is filled in the middle of the mountain, giving a feeling of paradise. Only by coming here in person can you experience its beauty.

A natural rainforest oxygen bar, the round trip is gentle and not tiring, suitable for all ages. Along the way, you'll be accompanied by streams and ancient trees, culminating in the spectacular Moli Waterfall at the end, with its misty atmosphere creating a fantastic photo opportunity. It's great value for money and definitely worth a visit to cleanse your lungs and relax. Remember to wear non-slip shoes, as the path is quite slippery.

It belongs to Mangjing Village, Huimin Town, Lancang Laku Autonomous County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province. The main ethnic group is Bulang. The village was selected into the second batch of Chinese traditional villages. It is a cultural relic component of the "Jingmai Ancient Tea Garden", a national key cultural relic protection unit, and is also one of the nine traditional villages listed as the heritage elements of the "Pu'er Jingmai Mountain Ancient Tea Forest Cultural Landscape". Wengji Village is located at the northern end of the Aileng Mountain (also known as Mangjing Mountain) mountain range. It is built according to the mountain terrain and surrounded by ancient tea forests. It is about 1,350 meters above sea level and above the fog line. According to the villagers' oral account, the layout of the five Bulang villages in Jingmai Mountain and Aileng Mountain is shaped like an elephant, and Wengji is located on the head of the elephant. "Wengji" means "to look at the hexagram" in the Bulang language. Legend has it that when the ancestors of the Bulang migrated to Jingmai Mountain, they looked at the hexagram here to choose a location for the village. The village completely preserves the traditional pattern and historical features of the Bulang villages in Jingmai Mountain. The buildings are scattered around the center of the village along the contour line. Wengji has a village gate, and in the past, only houses were allowed to be built inside the village gate. Wengji Buddhist Temple was built on the terrace at the north end of the village. It is a place for religious activities and major festivals. It was rebuilt in 2009. The buildings in the village are all traditional stilt houses. Tradition requires that the entrance of the houses face the center of the village, and the roof of the building is parallel to the Aileng Mountain. Among them, 49 traditional stilt houses are cultural relics of the "Jingmai Ancient Tea Garden", a national key cultural relic protection unit. There are many large trees distributed around the village boundary and next to the temple, which are regarded as sacred trees for protecting the village by the villagers. The tree species include cypress, bodhi and banyan trees. The center of the village, the village gate, the Buddhist temple, traditional houses and sacred trees are all carriers of the heritage value of the traditional village of Wengji. In recent years, with the development of society and the increase in population, new villages have been built and developed on the north and south sides of the old village.
