A luxury hotel in Dehong prefecture has recently been named a five-star hotel, the first of its kind in the area.

Mangshi hotel, established in 1956, has been the host to many national leaders such as President Hu Jintao and the late Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai.

The hotel is also the home to two Myanmar osmanthus trees, which were planted by Zhou and the second Myanmar President U Ba Swe. They were planted as a symbol of peace and friendship between the two countries.

In 2003, Mangshi was reconstructed to meet the standards of a five-star hotel. This well-appointed hotel has a building area of more than 60,000 square meters.
