Introduction
"Wandian" is a word in the Dai language, meaning "direct sunlight", so it is often called "a place with abundant sunshine". Wandian is the smallest city among national entry-exit ports and is also known as one of the smallest cities in China, as well as one of the three border cities in Yunnan. A hundred years ago, Wandian was a dangerous wilderness filled with jackals and wolves. At that time, there was only a narrow path leading to the outside world, and a broken thatched hut there served as a "post station" for merchants to rest. It is very convenient to go to the border cities of Nankan, Jiugu, Muzhe, and Lashu in Myanmar. You only need to provide two photos and fees to the Chinese travel agency, and they will take you out of the country and guide your Myanmar tour group. Upon returning, they will hand you over to the Chinese travel agency. Address Mengding Town, Ruili City, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province
