🌲 Shangri-La Yubeng Village is located in Yunling Township, Deqin County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China. It is hidden on the eastern slope of Meili Snow Mountain. Surrounded by mountains and isolated from the world, this village is known as a "paradise" and a hiker's paradise for its well-preserved natural landscape and unique Tibetan culture.
🔸 Yubeng Village is divided into two parts: Upper Yubeng and Lower Yubeng, which are connected by a small path. The surrounding area is full of dense virgin forests, vast meadows, and spectacular snow-capped mountains, the most famous of which is Meili Snow Mountain, one of the four sacred mountains of Tibetan Buddhism, which is extremely sacred to the local residents and many believers.
🚌 Due to its remote location, Yubeng Village was extremely inconvenient to access in the past, and access to the village was mainly by hiking. Usually, visitors would first arrive in Shangri-La City, then take a local shuttle bus or charter a car to Deqin County, then charter a car from Deqin County to Xidang Village, and finally hike through the mountains and forests to Yubeng. With the gradual improvement of tourism facilities in recent years, although there are more ways to get there, hiking is still the main way to explore Yubeng, adding to its charm as an adventure destination.
🏘 In terms of accommodation, Yubeng Village has developed from its original rudimentary conditions and now offers a variety of options from budget inns to specialty B&Bs and even high-end hotels, although the options are still limited, they can meet the needs of different visitors. In addition, due to its high altitude, visitors need to be aware of altitude sickness and make appropriate preparations.
🔸 Yubeng Village is not only a place of natural beauty, but also a great place to experience Tibetan culture and traditional lifestyle, where visitors can participate in cultural activities such as mountain tours, temple visits, and Tibetan food tasting. Overall, Yubeng Village attracts travelers and adventurers from all over the world with its pristine natural beauty and simple folk customs.
