Xishuangbanna is a Dai autonomous prefecture located in Yunnan province. The climate is pleasant all year round.
Due to its location close to the ocean, it rains frequently and has many forests. This is why Xishuangbanna has the reputation of being the "Kingdom of Plants".
In 1993, Xishuangbanna was named an international biosphere protection area.
