1 Just outside Jinghong day 1

My buddy Bryan and I did this trip over 5 days from 29 Dec 2006 to 2 Jan 2007. We followed the Mekong river till Menglun, and then one of its tributaries into the hills up to a place called Xiangming. The photos are in chronological order.

Xishuanbanna is in southern Yunnan, bordering Burma and Laos in the south, and China in the north :-) (Sometimes, in these parts, it almost doesn't feel like China anymore!)
