No plant lover would dislike Xishuangbanna in winter.

If you fly to Xishuangbanna, you will have a summer that is not hot, with palm trees and coconut trees that are seven or eight meters high, super large Alocasia macrorrhiza, and fiery red flowers everywhere. In December, Xishuangbanna is cool in the morning and evening, and the rain at night falls on the thick leaves, mixing with the hot and humid air of the plants, which can sweep away the gloomy mood. There is a saying that the incidence of depression in cold regions is much higher than in warm tropical regions, where people always wear bright clothes, have a fiery temperament, and are full of smiles. Eating Dai cuisine with a lot of herbs, lemons, and millet peppers, and the warm and sweet Balu Da, the stomach that has been perfunctory for many days is also redeemed. In the botanical garden, you can see many tropical plants that you have never seen before, such as Saraca asoca, Datura, Heliconia rostrata, and Antiaris toxicaria, observe the early, middle, and complete stages of strangler fig strangling palm trees, and hike into the tropical rainforest to find the huge buttress roots of the 45-meter-high Tetrameles nudiflora. If you are not careful, you will also see a well-camouflaged stick insect on the railing of the boardwalk. In the market and ordinary fruit shops, you can buy red bananas, egg fruits, and sugar apples. The surprises brought by the rich ecological atmosphere are enough to offset the negative emotions brought by commercialization and urban construction problems. In recent years, I have gradually felt a kind of life meaning of traveling thousands of miles, don't get stuck in the horns of life, go out more and see that life is not only a possibility.
