Shangri- La

It was the British writer James Hilton's novel, The , some 80 years ago, that brought fame to an unknown and uncontaminated place- Shangri-La. The novel described in great detail the stunning scenery in the area: the azure sky, the breathtaking beauty and the hospitality of unsophisticated people.
In Tibetan, Shangri- La means a place of good fortune and luck. Shangri-La is a sacred scenic region. Scores of years have witnessed the failure of numerous efforts to seek out and pinpoint the exact location of this dreamland. A few years ago, the government of Yunnan Province finally declared the discovery of Shangri-La and the long lost horizon was recovered in Diqing, this stunning prefecture in Yunnan Province.China.
