Ruili Ethnic Cultural Palace

　　Upon entering the palace, you’ll notice that the gateway is designed in the shape of a triangular spire tower, with a gourd-shaped door opening. It is a Dai-style palace building, resplendent in golden colors and rich in Dai ethnic characteristics. Inside, there is the “White Dragon Pavilion,” a symbol of the Dai Water-Splashing Festival, and the “Munao Shidong” pavilion, representing the Jingpo Munao Zongge Festival. The palace also houses the “Premier - Memorial Pavilion,” which has a multi-tiered pavilion structure covered with golden ceramic tiles. Its base is square with eight sides, and the railing is inlaid with marble. There are 20 entrances, with horizontal inscriptions and plaques written in Chinese, Dai, and Jingpo scripts. These describe how in December 1956, during an overseas visit, Premier - and Vice Premier He Long, together with Burmese Prime Minister U Ba Swe and his delegation, presided over a border peoples’ gathering in Mangshi, promoting the profound friendship between the people of China and Myanmar. In addition, there are features such as a fountain pool, a children’s playground, and a square. The palace is filled with the sound of flowing streams, and lush tropical and subtropical plants thrive here, making it a great destination for sightseeing and enjoying the cool in the peak of summer.
