Menglun Tropical Botanical Garden

The Menglun Tropical Botanical Garden, which is established in 1959, is about 80 kilometers from Jinghong city, Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province. Yunnan is known as the “Kingdom of Plants”, and this garden is called the “Green Gem on the Crown of the Plant Kingdom” since it is the birthplace of conservation activities in Xishuangbanna.
Located in a gourd-shaped peninsula surrounded by the Luosuo River (a branch of the Mekong River), the garden is the largest tropical botanical garden in China. It covers an area of 900 hectares, and more than 6,000 species of tropical plants from home and abroad can be found here.
