Rubber Plantation

　　This lush, neatly arranged rubber forest carries the history of Xishuangbanna’s state farms. The scars on the tree trunks are proof of the arduous pioneering efforts of successive waves of settlers, while the white latex sincerely speaks of the tireless dedication of those who toiled for the rubber harvest. From the patriotic overseas Chinese Mr. Qian Fangyuan and Mr. Li Zongzhou in 1948 to the present day, a series of solid footsteps have been left on this rich and beautiful land.

　　Wandering through the rubber forest, treading on land that has accumulated over fifty years of history, and gazing at the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees, you look up to see nothing but dazzling green. Under the shade of the trees, you neither feel stuffy nor too cold—just the perfect temperature, just the right kind of woodland.

　　The dense rubber forest, an expanse of green, and the pure white latex overflow with the history of pioneering. The wheels of history once rolled here, and the hardships of the past are etched into the rubber trees and buried deep beneath the rubber soil. The past will eventually pass, but this remains a piece of land that must never be forgotten.
