Demography[edit]
Lincang is the mountainous home of the Wa ethnic minority and was historically seen as too "wild" to be worth settling by neighboring powers, notably BritishBurma and ancient China. This may have had some connection to the Wa's image as head-hunters.
Natural resources[edit]
Mineral resources mined and extracted in the Lincang area include coal (including waste coal ash), germanium and uranium.[1] Lincang is also home to the world's oldest cultivated tea tree, some 3,200 years old, in the village of Jinxiu (锦绣), Xiaowan town, of Fengqing County.[2][3]
