For those who are looking for a place to visit that is steeped in history, then a trip to the Great Jiele Golden Towers in Dehong in the Yunnan Province top China tours is an amazing destination. The long history of these remarkable towers that have been destroyed and rebuilt eight times is an astounding story in itself, and makes it one of the most famous Buddhist pagodas in the area. It¡¯s honored to be the very first Buddhist pagoda in this province and certainly one of the most prominent. It is the great symbol of friendship between the people of Burma and the people of China and a magnificent achievement of the Dai artisans and craftsmen of that region over four centuries ago. In order to get to these Great Jiele Golden Towers the traveler has to arrive in Ruili , the capital of this lush subtropical frontier, which lies on the east bank of the Ruili River. This town is specifically called the ¡°foggy town¡± because typically each morning in the winter, a mantle of fog covers the entire area until after the midday sun finally burns it away. Ruili is about 521 miles from Kunming Kunming tourand travelers can either go by bus or plane or by ferry from Myanmar. Ruili is a paradise for those who love jewelry because it¡¯s one of the major distribution centers in China for the magnificent Myanmar emeralds and other spectacular gemstones. With its location just north of the Tropic of Cancer, the climate is humid and the Moli Rainforest is a great place to see unique plant and animal life.
