The scenery along the roadside is plains landscape, and the main plant there is the rubber tree. However, the tree will be bald from November to March. Some of the land is also planted bananas, but locals do not like to eat this banana. Because businessmen leased the land to farmers on banana cultivation, the use of a large number of fertilizers resulting from structural change, in general, to banana cultivation over other crops species no longer has.
Dai villages along the way are two layers. Will be passing along the way the East Wind Farms which is very well known (similar to one of our small town, there are country markets, schools, shops, etc.)

Starting from Damenglong to Weidong is basically winding mountain road; the asphalt has been well extended to the local village (official said Hani, but locals prefer us to call them Aini people). Aini people are live on producing the Pu’er Tea.
Hani housing characteristics: the roof has two horns like gladiatorial combat decoration, the man of the house if the house had died, and then we should pluck decorative horn. In general, the more affluent families, the more layers of roof houses.
Hani’s houses are wooden structures, and the bottom layer is the pillar of wood or other generally used for tea making. It can also be used as parking place for motorcycles or tractors. Every household has a lot of dogs and cats, chickens, ducks, etc., are generally open up to feed.
Ground will have a ladder extended to the Hani terrace, balcony generally used as a sun tea. General Guests take the ladder, while two ladders is extended to the second floor from the ground inside the room, in general, women should go the right one, while the men go the left.
Hani people are not allowed gambling. They are very warm heart and modesty.
