Feb 17, 2025
Thought Dali and Lijiang were stunning enough, until I went to Shangri-La and realized this is the true summer paradise, a hidden gem! The average summer temperature is around 20℃, 🏕 with snow-capped mountains, meadows, forests, and canyons all here. Bringing kids means both escaping the heat and immersing in nature, and best of all, fewer crowds—it's simply perfect~
Stay at [Meili Bodu]🏡, facing the Meili Thirteen Peaks across the mountain. Open your eyes in the morning to see the golden snow peaks waking from the mist, full of healing vibes~
Luxury Wild Hotels:
Meili Bodu Hotel
A newly popular scenic hotel on Wunong Peak, directly facing the Meili Snow Mountain Thirteen Peaks. The hotel is full of snow mountain viewing platforms. Wake up to golden light, watch the snow peaks turn rosy at dusk from the terrace, even your breath feels fresh with the mountain air~
Yubeng Wild View Hotel
In Lower Yubeng Village, the prime spot for snow mountain views! Floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows face meadows, forests, and snow mountains. You can lie in your room and see the Meili Thirteen Peaks. Just a few minutes’ walk to the Divine Waterfall hiking start point—truly a hiker’s paradise.
Songtsam Linka Hotel
Facing the Songzanlin Monastery, the "Little Potala Palace," the hotel itself is a Tibetan lifestyle museum, decorated with solid wood furniture, handmade Tibetan rugs, and bronze Buddha statues. Watch monks debate on the terrace at dusk and feel the Tibetan Zen spirit.
Luxury Wild Ranch
Standalone wooden cabins hidden in Ren’an Valley, surrounded by flower seas and grasslands, like stepping into a New Zealand ranch postcard. Bring kids to feed lambs, stroll in the valley, and watch the starry sky at night.

The foremost of the eight sacred mountains in Tibet, a holy snow mountain never summited. Early morning golden sunlight floods the peaks, as beautiful as a dream—definitely get up early to catch it!
✔ Yubeng Hiking
If not heaven, then Yubeng. Hike the Divine Waterfall trail through primeval forest, listen to the snowmelt streams. The waterfall at the end is surrounded by prayer flags; it’s said that being sprinkled by the waterfall brings blessings.
✔ Songzanlin Monastery & Napa Lake
The solemnity of Songzanlin Monastery contrasts beautifully with the healing Napa Lake. Any snapshot of the Napa Lake loop road looks like a desktop wallpaper. From June to August, the grasslands are lush, like a fairyland.

The world’s largest prayer wheel, requiring several people to turn it. One full turn equals reciting 1.24 million mantras, letting you feel the power of Tibetan faith.
