2. You are currently located within the Wild Elephant Valley area of the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, where the terrain is complex and forest trails frequently see elephant activity—making it a high-risk zone. Visitors are strictly prohibited from straying off the designated trails. In case wild elephants are spotted, certain sections of the trail may be temporarily closed to ensure your safety. Additionally, camping is strictly forbidden—neither in groups nor individually—within the boundaries of the Wild Elephant Valley.

4. As a responsible visitor, please respect the park’s flora and fauna—avoid trampling on the grass, and refrain from picking or damaging flowers and fruits. Additionally, help maintain the park’s cleanliness by keeping the grounds tidy, avoiding littering, and resisting the urge to scribble or carve on surfaces. Remember, the forest serves as the natural habitat for wild elephants and other wildlife—so let’s all work together to protect this precious environment.

5. Xishuangbanna Wild Elephant Valley is a designated fire-prevention area. Visitors are prohibited from bringing flammable or explosive items into the park. Smoking is strictly forbidden in non-smoking zones, and even within designated smoking areas, littering cigarette butts or leaving any sources of ignition is not allowed to prevent fires. Additionally, outdoor cooking activities—whether inside or outside the park—are prohibited. Unauthorized entry into non-tourist areas is strictly prohibited as well.
6. The park features lush vegetation and humid air—please bring your own mosquito repellent or insect-proof medication to avoid discomfort from bites.
7. Within the Wild Elephant Valley Park, the terrain is mountainous. During your visit, please stay orderly when passing through potentially hazardous areas (such as steep, narrow, or slippery, wet paths). Avoid crowding to prevent accidents and injuries. Before exploring, carefully assess whether your current health condition allows for the activity—don’t push yourself beyond your limits or rely on luck. When participating in activities like hiking, be sure to take regular breaks, avoid overly strenuous exercise, and always prioritize safety precautions.

While hiking, climbing slopes, taking photos, stepping up and down stairs, or traversing boardwalks, kindly refrain from playing or roughhousing.
