Near the hot spring pool, there is a gold-colored Dai-style pagoda, or stupa, that houses a meteorite. There is a giant "footprint" embedded at an incline in the ground at the rock wall, with the toes of the foot clearly visible. In Southeast Asian Buddhism, this is a very famous footprint of the Buddha. Not far from the towering pagoda stands the Big Buddha Temple. At each and every Buddhist festival, there is a constant flow of pilgrims coming here to pray for blessings.

The Dai Ancient Town is located in Mangshi, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. It is built according to the national 4A-level scenic spot standards. Through in-depth excavation of Dai history and culture, with ancient Dai culture as the leader, architecture as the backbone, commerce as the spirit, and intangible cultural heritage as the skills, relying on the shape of the mountains and water, it has created a world ancient Dai cultural experience site that integrates cultural experience, leisure vacation, tourism services and ecological living. Improved Dai-style stilt houses are distributed on both sides of the main street, and the gray tiles, wooden eaves and carved window lattices retain ethnic characteristics.

Jiegao Port

Ruili · 5.4km from downtown

Jiegao Port is located on the east bank of the Ruili River, facing the Ruili city area across the river. It borders Muse, Myanmar, on the east, south, and north, serving as a busy land route for people and goods on the China-Myanmar border. "Jiegao" means "old city" in the Dai language and is said to have been the site of the ancient Mengmao city. Because it is surrounded by Myanmar on three sides and faces the river on one, it long functioned as an exclave. In the past, access relied entirely on ferries until the Jiegao Bridge was completed and opened to traffic in 1989, truly connecting the two sides. In 2005, a 600 m long, 4-lane bridge was opened, further easing traffic pressure. Jiegao Port implements a special inside the border, outside the customs management system: while located within the national border, the customs supervision line is set on the cross-river bridge, which gives this area a particularly strong atmosphere of border trade. The impressive national gate architecture and the straight, wide National Gate Avenue are the face of Jiegao.The nearby China-Myanmar Street is even more interesting. This street spans both countries; the Chinese side is called China-Myanmar Friendship Street, and the Myanmar side is called White Elephant Street,the boundary marker stands by the street, and standing in the middle of the street, you can see the streetscapes of two different countries on either side.

Shubao Tower

Mangshi · 420m from downtown

105 reviews

Shubao Tower, originally named Tiecheng Pagoda and known as "Guangmu Jielie" in the Dai language, is named after the former Dai village of Jielie where it was built. It is one of the older Dai Buddhist pagodas in Mangshi. Legend has it that the local chieftain built this pagoda during the Qing Dynasty to commemorate a military victory. The pagoda is a solid brick structure standing 11.6 m tall, with an octagonal base supporting a conical, bead-shaped body. The finial's rings and vase point toward the sky, with smaller pagodas standing at each of the four corners. The stone carvings of the mythical "Gatuo" beasts on the base still retain the traditional charm of Dai Buddhist pagodas. What truly made it famous throughout western Yunnan is the spectacle formed by the pagoda and the tree intertwined for over a century: it is said that abodhi tree seedlanded in the dust on the pagoda's top, carried by bird droppings. It took root and sprouted, with the roots cascading down the pagoda walls. Over time, they completely enveloped the entire structure. Today, the dense canopy covers the top of the pagoda like an umbrella, and the gnarled roots coil down the body. From a distance, the pagoda appears hidden within the tree; up close, the tree seems to grow from the pagoda. The tree wraps around the pagoda, and the pagoda embraces the tree, interdependent and inseparable. The bodhi tree is considered a sacred tree in Dai Buddhist culture, and a tree growing atop a pagoda adds even more significance.

The square also features a musical fountain. When the colorful lights turn on at night, the water feature and ethnic architecture complement each other. It is also the venue for many large-scale ethnic festivals and sports events in Mangshi, and it serves as the main site for the citywide water-splashing carnival during the Water-Splashing Festival.
