Vine Rattan Bridge

　　    The vine rattan bridge is a type of bridge built by the Wa and Lahu ethnic groups in Ximeng over rivers and streams. In the past, sturdy and thick tree vines were used as cables, bamboo and wooden branches as railings, with several wooden logs laid across and connected in the middle. It is primitive and rustic, harmonizing with the surrounding environment. Not only is it practical, but it also has a unique charm and high ornamental value. Several such bridges can be found over the Nan Kang River, Xi Gu River, Nan Xi River, and Nan Ka River in Ximeng.
