The Sights of China: Shangri-la

Within China's largest valley area, newly renamed Shangri-la, three great rivers, the Yangtse, Mekong and Salween, flow in parallel between 5,000 m mountain plateaus. Bountiful nature includes snow-capped mountains and glaciers in between a 6,000 m vertical drop, lakes hidden like jewels in the innermost recesses of a great canyon and primordial forests. Along with a number of rare creatures exclusive to the region, people and their daily lives naturally blend into the landscape. Take a journey and feast your eyes on the magnificence of this untainted natural paradise.
