Ancient village - Manzhang Village

Took a didi to the village which is about 30-40 minutes from downtown Jinghong. The fare to get there is well worth it - did pottery and flower pictures and they even can teach you how to do tapestry! Food available on every corner by the locals! Probably our best day out and great to keep children occupied!

Visit the Dragons of Manzhang Village

#china #yunnan #xishuangbanna About a 35 minute taxi ride from the night market you can find Manzhang village, a Dai minority historic village with many attractions. One of my favourite parts of this visit was spitting all the different dragon sculptures as part of the temples. Go to see traditional Dai performances, buy fresh grown fruit and have a walk around a traditional town.

Xishuangbanna | Visiting Manzhang Village, it truly is the best village in Banna for a stroll with kids

Manzhang Village is indeed a great place for a walk with kids. The village is not very big and is quite commercialized. However, commercialization is not necessarily a bad thing, as almost every household has hands-on experience projects. The small village, which can be walked through in half an hour just by strolling, can provide a long and enjoyable visit when accompanied by children playing along the way. The kids also have a great time! Experience projects include: Papermaking, Dai pottery, grinding soy milk, squeezing sugarcane, fishing, cockfighting, etc. The prices are all about the same, just go with the flow, no need to make it too complicated. The villagers are simple and the prices are touching. Mangoes are cut on the spot for 10 yuan per box, and the fruit smoothies are also made on the spot with real fruit. The number one roast chicken lives up to its reputation and is really delicious. The grilled ribs, wild vegetable soup, and sticky rice ordered together are also tasty, recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The location is easy to find, right at the first house at the entrance of the village. 📝Travel tips: 1. Tickets: The village is free to visit, but there is a sanitation fee of 10 yuan for parking. 2. Transportation: ❶ Self-drive or chartered car🚗 ❷ High-speed train🚄 to Wild Elephant Valley Station, after getting off, villagers at the station offer rides for 5 yuan directly to the entrance of the village. 3. Manzhang Village and Wild Elephant Valley are on the same route and can be visited in one day. —————— This is LuLu's Travel Journal Continuously updating more parent-child travel strategies and daily life Thank you all for your support and likes!
