Jiegao Border Trade Economic Zone

　　Introduction:        The Jiegao Border Trade Zone is located on the southeastern bank of the Ruili River, about 4 kilometers from Ruili City. It borders Myanmar’s main foreign trade port, Muse City, to the east, south, and north. In the Dai language, “Jiegao” means “old city.” Legend has it that during the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, the king of the Luodian Kingdom, Si clan, once established his capital here, hence the name.       Sino-Myanmar Friendship Street is situated on the Chinese side of the Sino-Myanmar border in Jiegao. In March 1991, Myanmar also built a row of commercial shops with distinct Burmese architectural style here.  　    Transportation:       After arriving in Ruili City, you can take a minivan to get there, or you can walk from Sino-Myanmar Street to Muse City, but you’ll need to go through relevant procedures at the border checkpoint.
