The Dai people are an ethnic minority group that inhabits the Jinghong area. To truly experience the local culture, visit one of the Dai minority villages. Explore the traditional Dai architecture, taste authentic Dai cuisine, and witness traditional ceremonies and performances. The Water Splashing Festival, celebrated in April, is a particularly vibrant and lively event where locals and tourists come together to splash water on each other as a symbol of cleansing and good luck.
