      "Kelo" is a Wa ethnic term, and "yongkeluo" means "wooden drum house" or "wooden drum village." Yongkeluo Park is a theme park dedicated to the Wa people’s sacred instrument — the wooden drum. Following local Wa customs, hundreds of wooden drums are placed inside drum houses, forming a rhythmic display of wooden drum clusters for visitors to see. Here, you can view the world’s largest collection of wooden drums and the biggest wooden drum in the world. Additionally, you’ll find statues of the Wa people’s “gate guardians,” towering cattle skull posts, sacrificial cattle posts, vine suspension bridges, mysterious human head posts, as well as a monument to the song “The Wa People Sing a New Song.” This song was composed by Yang Zhenren in the former Mowo Township of Ximeng County, inspired by the Wa folk song “White Pheasant.” “The Wa People Sing a New Song” is the anthem of Ximeng Wa Autonomous County.

      Address: Ximeng County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province
