Mangshi, where the capital of Dehong Prefecture is located, Mangshi is 630 kilometers away from Kunming. Mangshi is the only two counties and cities in Yunnan Province named after one word, and the other is Yunxian in Lincang City.

The topography of Dehong Prefecture is high in the northeast and low in the southwest, which is opposite to the high in the northwest and low in the southeast in Yunnan. It is located on the broad and gentle slope of the transition from the Yunnan Plateau and Hengduan Mountains to the Burmese Plain. Yunnan in the vast area east of Gaoligong Mountain, high in the northwest and low in the southeast, the slope faces the Pacific Ocean to the southeast, the river flows southeast, belonging to the Pacific water system, while the slope of Dehong Prefecture faces the Indian Ocean to the southwest, all rivers flow to the southwest, all flow into the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar, not the Nu River (Salween River), but belong to the Indian Ocean water system. Therefore, the topography of Dehong is not like the typical landform of the Yunnan Plateau, nor the geomorphology of the Hengduan Mountains, but more like the river plain basin landform of Myanmar. The average elevation here is more than 900 meters, and the lowest elevation is located in the Jianyang River Valley of Yingjiang County, which is only 210 meters, which is relatively low in Yunnan. The mountains are mainly Zhongshan and hills, with few high mountains, low and gentle, flat and open, and there are many river valley basins (Bazi). These basins have fertile land, abundant heat and rich products. The surface landscape consists of "three mountains", "three rivers", "four rivers" and 28 river valley basins of different sizes. The river valley basins account for 17.1% of the state's land area. The dams with an area of more than 100000 mu are Yingjiang Dam (552300 mu), Longchuan Dam (297200 mu), Mangshi Dam (204200 mu) and Chaofang Dam (118200 mu). Dehong has the highest proportion of basin area in Yunnan Province, so Dehong can be said to be the plain of Yunnan.

Climate characteristics Dehong has unique climate resources, close to the Tropic of Cancer, low latitude, affected by the Indian Ocean southwest monsoon, belongs to the south subtropical monsoon climate, the northeast Gaoligong Mountain blocks the entry of dry and cold air from Siberia to the south, and the warm wet air in the Indian Ocean rises along the southwest sloping mountain windward slope in summer, forming abundant precipitation. Therefore, it has formed the characteristics of no severe cold in winter, no heat in summer, abundant rainfall, hot and dry in the same season, small annual temperature difference, short frost period and less frost days, which provides good growth and overwintering conditions for Dehong coffee.
