    What an adventure. Leaving Lincang we hired a car and driver for a four hour drive to Cangyuan. Our goal was to visit a Wai people village. You have to hire a car and driver to take you to the village which takes about 45 minutes. The village is authentic and about 250 Wai people live there. You can walk around the village and see how the farming community lives. The government has given incentative for the people to continue to live in the village and preserve their way of life. We were told that the village is about 600 years old. They do not speak English so be sure you have an English speaking tour guide. It is the first place I have been and seen women who have blacken their teeth. We elected to take the local bus back to Lincang. When leaving any part of Southern Yunnan province you will be stopped for a random search of luggage. The government cracks down on smuggling in drugs. But it a great time to rest and buy bottle water. See more..

    名气很大,不收门票,早上去的是有一个小沙弥为大家做介绍,如果光看根本不了解他的意义在哪里,二十分钟就能全部看完,希望能有宣传资料推介它 See more..

    First of all you need to be impressed by anything that is 3000 years old. The walk up is challenging and when you get there the images are very in distinct and difficult to make out. View is great and they are trying to upgrade so maybe wait before visiting See more..
