City in China: Shangri-La香格里拉

The Chinese government renamed the city to Shangri-La (Xiānggélǐlā, 香格里拉) in 2001 in a effort to boost tourism, which is originally known as Zhongdian (Zhōngdiàn Xiàn, 中甸县). A gateway for travelers into Tibet, the cobblestone-lined old town offers a charming look into Tibetan life without having to jump through all of the hoops required to enter the Tibetan Autononomous Region (TAR) itself. It's a beautiful ride from Zhongdian through the mountains to Deqin to the northeast, and beyond that, the massive range of snow-and-ice-capped mountains on the border with Tibet proper known as Meili Xue Shan. It is also possible to visit Tiger Leaping Gorge, Pudacuo National Park, Napa Lake (Nàpà Hǎi, 纳帕海), Xiagei Hot Springs (Xià Gěi, 下给) and Haba Snow Mountain (Hǎba Xuě Shān, 哈巴雪山) from Zhongdian/Shangri-La by bus, motorcycle or hired car.
