Introduction to Xishuangbanna

Xishuangbanna (or Sipsongpanna, the name given to this region by the native Thai or Dai people which literally means 12,000 rice fields) is located in the south of the Yunnan Province, China, sharing its borders with the countries Laos and Myanmar.

This Dai Minority People’s Autonomous Prefecture covers an area of approximately 19,700 sq. km and is home to a cultural mix of 994,000 people,  about 30% are Dai, 29% are Han and the rest is a mixture of ethnic minorities such as Hani, Bulang, Lahu, Jinuo, Yi, Wa, Bai and Yao people. They all have their own customs which makes Xishuangbanna a very colourful and interesting place to visit. It's also home for some of the best festivals in China including the Dai New Year Festival (Water Splashing Festival).

Xishuangbanna is also still blessed with 2,400 sq. km of tropical rainforest which contains 18% of China’s flora species and 20% of its fauna species despite the fact that its land area comprises only 0.2% of the total land of China, making it the most bio diverse region in China, giving this region the title of ‘the Tropical Kingdom’.

The region has a wet and a dry season. The wet season is between May and October; the dry is between September to April. Temperatures range between 11 - 33 degrees.
