In Xishuangbanna, where the largest number of Dai live, they refer to their area as bazi meaning tranquil and beautiful. This land is near river basins in a lush subtropical land where the soil is very fertile. Their food is similar to Thai food in that it combines sour, spicy, salty and sweet flavors.
