Sixiao highway rolls out ecological beauty

In April, the fragrance of flower blossom is still spreading, and we just had a drive tour along the Simao-Xiaomengyang highway that links up the Yunnan localities of Pu’er and Xishuangbanna. The highway is part of the Kunming-Bangkok highway. 

A vast expanse of luxuriant and green tropical forest comes into our view all the way round, which is a feast for the eyes. Winding around the geological landform, the highway is just like a silver belt flying in the green sea, rolling out a natural painting of ecology.

‘Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets.’ It is this spectacular tropical forest highway that puts the concept into practice during the process of design, construction, operation and management. With wild animals only a glimpse away, the highway is a good example for sustainable development.
