     Xishuangbanna, located in the south of China's Yunnan Province, is often referred to as the "Kingdom of Plants" or " A green gem in the imperial Botanical Crown". The region is blessed with marvellous virgin forests, tropical rain forests, abundant flora and fauna as well as ancient and charming minority cultures. This wonderland enjoys an international fame for its rich, brilliant and diverse scenic beauty, attracting scholars and tourists from both home and abroad. Xishuangbanna covers less than 0.2% of the total land area of China, yet it is here that more than 4,000 species of higher plants and over 600 species of vertebrates have been discovered. It boasts 50% of China's rare and endangered plants under state protection. Among over 600 species of terrestrial wildlife roaming Xishuangbanna, up to 100 have been placed under special state protection. Xishuangbanna has become a world-famous "oasis" on the otherwise desert belt of the tropic of cancer on accounts of its multitude of vegetation types as well as its rich species resources
