Tourism Resources

In 2007, the resort upgraded its 51 deluxe twin rooms, 2 deluxe single rooms, 6 deluxe suites, and 1 presidential suite to meet three-star standards. It has a restaurant for 500 diners, an ethnic-style barbecue area, a fully equipped dance hall, and multifunctional conference rooms, making it an ideal place for leisure, dining, accommodation, and entertainment.

To showcase Xishuangbanna’s unique ethnic charm, the resort’s main design—created by Shanghai Jiao Tong University—features a 100-meter relief depicting the story of the Peacock Princess.

Golden Lake shimmers amid dense forest, with traditional Dai-style buildings nestled in the greenery. Peacocks display their plumage, ostriches sing in welcome, and sika deer frolic by the lakeside, embodying the theme of harmony between humans and nature.

Two pavilions—Prince Pavilion and Princess Pavilion—stand on the lake, marking the legendary meeting place of Zhao Shutun and the Peacock Princess Nanmunuona (喃木诺娜). Today, flocks of peacocks fly over the lake and stroll along its shores, reenacting the romantic tale.

As Southeast Asia’s largest peacock breeding base, the park is home to over 3,000 peacocks—white, green, and blue. They generally inhabit open savannas, shrublands, bamboo groves, and mixed forests below 2,000 meters in elevation, favoring areas near rivers and open clearings.

Here, peacocks are trained from a young age through artificial taming and whistle-based conditioning. When the park’s keepers blow the whistle, hundreds of peacocks glide from the forest across Golden Lake to feed along the shore.
