Jinghong
Quick Answer
Jinghong is the main transport and hotel base for Xishuangbanna. It is the practical starting point for private day trips and short tours to Nannuo Mountain, Menghai and nearby tea villages.
A Convenient Tea-Tour Base
Jinghong offers an airport, railway station, established accommodation and a large food scene. Tea mountains are outside the city, so the strongest itineraries use a private vehicle and confirmed village or workshop hosts rather than relying on urban tea shops alone.
