Mengjinglai, The First Village Between China And Burma

Mengjinglai, The First Village Between China And Burma

Also known as Mengjinglai Village in the past, Mengjinglai Scenic Area is 2km
 from Daluo Town of Menghai County, bordering Burma in the east and seated
 on the Kunming-Daluo Road in the west. In the south, one also will find a big 
coverage of rubber tree forest.

The village, covering 5.6 sq km, has cultivated multi-acres of paddies and fish
 farms to create pastoral landscapes. It as well exhibits profound primitive ethic
 culture and features as an ecological community. Buddhist temple, pagodas, 
Bodhi trees, natural springs and the village are integrated with each other here; 
and the long history, colourful natural sceneries and human resources have all
 embodied the Buddhist culture of Hinayana.

And traditional techniques/things have been inherited in Mengjinglai Village that
 is co-inhabited by Dai and Shan, including paper-making, iron-forging, brewing,
 cloth-dyeing, sugar-making, pottery making, Gaosheng rocket, and brocading etc.
