Many people came to Shangri-La for tourism,

but then they changed their minds and

settle

in Shangri-La in the true sense.

the pace of life has slowed down and the

mood has become happy

At Shangri-La, the warm and pure air makes your body and mind stress-free! All the heart and lungs seem to be washed, and the problem no longer exists!

There are colorful folk customs!

Since Shangri-La is predominantly Tibetan,

you can enjoy Tibetan culture without going to Tibet;

There are too many activities such as pot village, dancing, singing, worship, etc., and most of these activities are organized outdoors, absorbing the aura of nature, and enjoying the pleasure brought by this beautiful environment happily and religiously!

What does Shangri-La have?

There are good mountains, rivers and scenery!

Shangri-La has green space,

blue sky and white clouds,

green trees

,

and there is more sacred and unclimbable Meili Snow Mountain

Living in the noisy city of reinforced concrete and traffic all year round, encountering an environment like Shangri-La, such a scenery, all the bad moods have become better, I will forget about all the old sesame seeds and rotten millet, and no matter how busy I am at work, I will slowly let go.

So if you live in Shangri-La, your friends live in Shangri-La, or people who have been to Shangri-La, and you feel that their whole person has suddenly changed, please don't be surprised, Shangri-La is such a magical place! A place where you don't want to leave when you come!

Best time to travel:

Summary: May-November is the most beautiful season in Shangri-La

January-February: It is the off-season for Shangri-La, and Shangri-La is prone to heavy snow and road closures from January to February , the transportation is not very convenient.

March-April: At this time, Shangri-La gradually ushered in spring, but the weather was still very cold, and occasionally you could only see the snow.

May-June: This is the best time to visit Shangri-La to see rhododendrons, yaks and alpine meadows. Imagine the rhododendrons blooming all over the mountains, reflecting the transparent blue sky and warm sunshine, how beautiful it must be!

July-August: Officially entering the rainy season, the water in Tiger Leaping Gorge is huge, which is the most magnificent time, but also because of the heavy rain and the long rain period, the road condition is not very good (it may be accompanied by landslides, collapses, etc., travel needs to pay attention to safety). At that time, Pudacuo Park was in full bloom, and there was a vibrant scene everywhere.

September-October: In autumn, the blood-colored wolf poisonous flowers bloom, which are very suitable for photography. All kinds of flowers compete for colors...... The entire plateau is full of autumn colors.

November-December: The weather is sunny and the air is clean at this time, which is a good time to see the Meili Snow Mountain. But it also depends on luck. Generally, when the sun first comes out in the early morning, it is easier to see the snow-capped mountains. However, it should also be noted that it will snow slowly during this season, resulting in icy sections and low temperatures.

Wearing

1. It is recommended to bring a jacket, gloves, non-slip boots, and down jacket (autumn and winter) to Shangri-La. In addition, the climate is dry and ultraviolet radiation is strong, so women should prepare sunscreen, sun hats, sunglasses, and warm clothing, especially after October.

2. Every year from June to September is the rainy season in Yunnan, Shangri-La is a high-altitude area in the plateau area, the plateau weather is changeable, it is recommended to bring a few more plastic bags, cover the camera on rainy days, rainproof and dustproof, and can also protect the equipment.

Things to remember:

1. When traveling in plateau areas such as Shangri-La, be careful not to walk or run in a hurry, walk slowly, bring oxygen, pay attention to keeping warm, etc.

2. Strictly prevent colds, which are easy to cause altitude sickness after a cold.

3. Diqing is a high-altitude area (3300 meters), so it is not suitable to drink alcohol, eat more vegetables and fruits to prevent altitude sickness.

4. Skin care products such as cold medicine, gastrointestinal medicine, and anti-inflammatory medicine are very important; Shangri-La is higher than other places in Yunnan, and the ultraviolet rays are stronger! Sun protection must be done well! It's still relatively dry, and the skin moisturizing work can't be left behind!

...... To be continued

Shangri-La will make people feel hoda,

Shangri-La will make people feel relieved,

Shangri-La will make people indifferent,

Shangri-La will make people peaceful.

Shangri-La seems to have made me obsessed with it?

In short, if you have the opportunity to go to Shangri-La once in your life, you will see the blue sky of Shangri-La, contact the rustic Tibetans, and breathe the clean and pure air, you will be comfortable and all diseases will disappear, just like a young man with strong hormones who sees a beautiful woman with all kinds of charm, and does not want to leave for a long time.
