Is Manting Park worth it?

Did you hear of Manting Park? It’s one of the oldest parks in Xishuangbanna. Full of unique architecture and fauna. It’s full of Dai culture! The park you can easily spend several hours here wandering around the parks that surround the lake 🌿During the day, this place is great to wonder around the nature, bask in the sun, ride a boat in the lake, feed the fish and take in the different temples. 🐟In one part, there is a place where you can buy fish and release them back into the lake - this is seen as good luck. If you don’t want to buy fish, you can buy fish food to give thanks. 🕊Plus you can also see some wildlife and many birds - there is also an elephant show, parrot and mini-horse on site although not something I enrolled in. At nighttime, they also hold an evening show with bonfire and lanterns. (Although I didn’t see anything about this during Covid times!) 💰The park costs enter - you can buy tickets on Meituan or simply buy them at the park entrance. I purchased tickets from Meituan for around 30rmb p/p. It was worth the price for a relaxing day out. 📍35 Wanting Road, Jinghong City 🚕 It’s really easy to get to, simply hail a car or self-drive to Manting Park. Parking is available on site. 🍔 There are some food vendors inside the park including drinks, ice creams, snacks and main meals ☀️ It gets really hot during the day and there is plenty of places to find shade, but make sure you use sun screen! #travellater #traveltheotherside #theotherside #travelwithme #nature #xishuangbanna #mantingpark #banna #manting
