The Chinese Academy of Sciences Tropical Botanical Garden, Wild Elephant Valley, Manting Park, and Gaozhuang West Twin Views each have their own charm, making it an excellent place to experience tropical scenery and Dai culture. The climate here is warm and humid, with evergreen weather all year round. My understanding is that the tropical botanical garden must be explained, as the names and stories of exotic flowers and trees are very interesting; The Starlight Night Market at Gaozhuang West Twin Views is liveliest at night, and taking photos in Dai costumes makes for great photos.

Friendly reminder: The mountain roads are slippery, so when going downhill, pay special attention to shifting your center of gravity and slowing down. You can have a pair of knee pads. Visitors generally report that Dai ethnic customs and tropical plants are favored, and they say it's hot but fun; Reminder: The Water Splashing Festival is packed, so sun protection is essential all year round. Depending on the situation, shoot early or late—early mornings with few people and soft light, golden glow at dusk for best photos; at noon, the summit is cramped and flat, so it's more cost-effective to rest.

Early in the morning, climb Laojun Mountain and take the two-level cable car to the Golden Summit, checking in at the Taoist temple cluster and the sea of clouds at sunrise; In the afternoon, slowly descend along the Ten-Mile Painted Screen, changing scenery at every step, and return at dusk.

My understanding is that hiking should be done within your means. Cable cars should be saved if possible, but those with knee problems shouldn't force themselves to hike—the scenery is not about showing off.
