The Wa Mountains on the China–Myanmar border, known for Wengding Wa Village, the Cangyuan rock paintings and the "Moni Hei" carnival.

Cangyuan Va Autonomous County lies in southwestern Lincang, Yunnan, bordering Myanmar, and is one of the main homelands of the Wa people. Wengding Village was once called "China's last primitive tribe" and is known for its thatched-roof stilt houses; it was rebuilt after a fire. The Cangyuan rock paintings are ancient rock art remains, and the lively "Moni Hei" carnival is held every year around May 1. Winter and spring are dry and pleasant. The gateway is Cangyuan Washan Airport, and you can also travel by road from Lincang city.
