Going wild in the wilderness

Yunnan's Xishuangbanna offers a natural appeal, especially with rainforest hikes that explore its biodiversity, Deng Zhangyu reports.

As winter switches much of the country into a fridge, if not a freezer, tropical Xishuangbanna Dai autonomous prefecture in Southwest China's Yunnan province offers a goldilocks climate. That is, not too hot, not too cold — but just right.

It's these mild temperatures that make it a hotspot for travelers during this otherwise-cold season. They flock to the region to explore its biodiversity for both education and entertainment.
