Yunnan is a beautiful city. Weng Ding Cun is recommended as a must-see spot for Lincang tourism. Here, you can feel the original ecological villages and ancient buildings.

Weng Ding Cun is the most intact original Wa village in China, with a long history and culture, artistic aesthetics, scientific research, village pattern and architectural value, which is the perfect presentation of the magnificent Wa epic in Sigangli. Weng Ding, in the Wa language, means a place filled with mist, and it also means a beautiful mountain and white clouds lake. Perhaps the most mysterious attraction of Weng Ding is the heart of the village that everyone should listen to-Zhaizhang, Zhaixin and Sigangli.

The village buildings are all-wood thatched houses, which can be divided into dry-railing houses and floor-standing houses. The floor-standing houses, dry-railing houses and buildings with attached buildings such as granary houses, wooden drum houses, salar houses, Meiyiji sacrificial houses and Zhaimen constitute a complete housing construction system of the Wa people, with rich characteristics and profound national culture, which is worth visiting.

There are village hearts in the village, which are places for holding sacrificial activities and festivals. Most of the bull's head piles stand on both sides of the village entrance road and folk square; The Goddess Tengtu column stands in the southwest of the folk square, and its shape resembles that of a goddess standing in hands in the air. Different dots on the horn-shaped wooden column at the top of the column indicate the stars and flowers in the sky. The inverted triangle pattern in the middle indicates the collar, the vertical bar indicates the clothes, the horizontal bar indicates the waist circle, and the inverted triangle pattern combination indicates the skirt pattern, which is the totem symbol of the original worship of the Wa ancestors.
