Description
Located on the outskirts of Jinghong City, Manjinglan Tourist Village is a large stockade with nearly 200 households. It is said that the nephew of Zhao Pianling, a big head of the Dai people, was buried here after his death. Zhao Pianling was afraid that his nephew's soul would be lonely, so he sent two servants, a man and a woman, to guard the tomb. They had children, and they multiplied from generation to generation, becoming a big stockade. Now this is a tourist village. The villagers have opened more than 20 Dai-flavored restaurants here, some of which also have performances, hostels, and entertain domestic and foreign guests. Guests can taste the Dai-flavored dishes here and listen to praise. (Singer) Sing and learn about the customs of the Dai people.
