Banyan Tree Ringha shares its waste management techniques with the host community to help protect the local eco-system. An incinerator was supplied to Geino village, which is managed by a village resident whom Banyan Tree Ringha pays for, in order to help the community promote more responsible waste management practice. In addition, 14 families in Geino village received solar water heating panels to provide hot water.
Banyan Tree Ringha is situated in the spectacular mountainous area of China’s Yunnan province. In true Banyan Tree spirit, the resort comprises original Tibetan farmhouses, which the Group bought from local families, relocated and reconstructed in the traditional style. There are 32 rustic Tibetan suites with intricate woodcarvings, fireplaces and private balconies with either valley or river views. Each room comes with a luxuriously designed bathroom fitted with handcrafted wooden bathtub.
