Who would go to Shangri-La for no reason? Once you go there, you won't want to come back. Shangri-La means the sun and moon in your heart in Tibetan. There are many symbolic names, such as the golden roof of the main hall of Songzanlin Temple, which represents "Sunlight City" and symbolizes brightness.

Shangri-La is delicious! 1. Shangri-La Food Recommendations Dukezong Ancient Town (Compared to Yunnan and Lijiang, Shangri-La has less commercial areas, with most businesses concentrated in Dukezong Ancient Town, making it very convenient for both accommodation and dining.) Special Tibetan Cuisine Finally, I had the long-awaited yak beef hotpot! I loved the atmosphere of the Tibetan restaurants. Each one has a uniquely ethnic decor. Upon entering, the waiters warmly greeted me with a hello, making it feel like visiting a relative. The yak beef has a light, milky flavor and is chewier than regular beef. Paired with the restaurant's specially prepared dipping sauce, it leaves a lingering aftertaste. The barley pancakes at this Tibetan restaurant are absolutely delicious—soft and crispy with just the right amount of sweetness. I've tried them at other restaurants since, but they're still better. We chose the sweet butter tea, which tasted very much like milk tea, with a strong milky flavor. The yak yogurt was also incredibly delicious. I prefer the butter tea to the yak yogurt; it's smooth and creamy, and a bowl of it is a refreshing after-meal treat. | Gucheng Caisheng Restaurant Highly recommend this restaurant's stir-fries and rice bowls!!! Cong Pu was starving after dropping off Cuo Tuming and decided to go straight to this stir-fry restaurant. They were so delicious we didn't even have time to take photos of the dishes. Every dish we ordered was a hit: spicy Tibetan pork, stir-fried yak tripe, Tibetan short ribs, stir-fried chanterelles, and yak beef rice bowl. Every dish was absolutely delicious! It went really well with the rice! Qingmu Kitchen This restaurant is owned by a Northeasterner in Shangri-La. The owner is very welcoming and will visit each table to interact with the guests. The highlight of this restaurant is its combination of barbecue, hot pot, and stir-fries—basically, everything you could want is available. The barbecue and stir-fries were average, but I highly recommend their matsutake and wild mushroom hotpot. The chicken broth is fresh and fragrant, blending well with the mushrooms—both delicious and healthy. The only disappointment here is the salty butter tea. I don't know if it's just not authentic or if it's just salty, but it's really good. #美食六味会 #我午夜餐堂 #晚飲食 #地方美食 #飲食晚飲食
