No 1 campsite in Xishuangbanna Dai autonomous prefecture, Southwest China's Yunnan province. [Photo provided to chinadaily.com.cn] For urban dwellers sweltering and withering in concrete jungles, few things are more therapeutic than a mindful walk in nature, especially a tropical jungle filled with wonders and adventures. That is why the tropical rainforest in Xishuangbanna Dai autonomous prefecture, which is known as the kingdom of flora and fauna located in the deep south of Southwest China's Yunan province, is growing in popularity as a destination for weekend getaways and study tours, attracting people from far and wide. In 2019, Xishuangbanna local Chen Sinan and his friends founded the No 1 campsite in the rainforest which the Jinuo ethnic group has inhabited and safeguarded for centuries. The campsite, a half-hour drive away from the downtown of Jinghong city, the region's capital, has become a sought-after destination for those seeking fun and an informative rainforest experience. |
