The Wengji Bulang Ancient Village, the Nuogan Dai Water Village, both preserve their traditional local-style dwelling houses building. The village planning and architectural design are integrated with the belief system and traditional convention of the national minorities.

Getting down from the Jingmai Mountain, we drove for the Haleja Country Music Town, i.e. the Laodabao Villager Group of Menggen Village, Jiujing Township, Lancang County. The feature of “people start to sing as soon as they can speak, and start to dance as soon as they can walk” for the ethnic minorities is fully inherited in this pure Lahu nationality village.

The Longmoye Scenic Spot is the place where the Wa people worship the god, present sacrificial offerings to their ancestors, and pray for safety and blessings.
> Mysterious rock paintings. Wa people do not have their own writings, thus its past was submerged in the long course of history. To probe the history of Ximeng’s Wa people, we walked into the mysterious Muyiji Holy Valley. The major spots in the scenic area is the “encounter with five gods”, “rock painting”, “Muyiji god statue”, “human head stakes”, “evil turning cliff”, “legend of sacrificial altar”, “legend of two banyan trees grown into one”, and etc., the rock painting – no one knows when it was painted – is a mute story teller of the Wa people’s history.
