travelers stories about Temple in Shangri-La, China

Temple in Shangri-La, China

This is one of the most beautiful mountain vistas in the world. Sadly I was only there for a few weeks and was working a tour group, so no real time for much photography. Thankfully, the place is so beautiful and dramatic; and the weather was perfect to get some good shots. Also serendipitously caught a Chinese Bull Fight Festival while we were there. (Not like the Spanish bullfights). Here, no animals get hurt. Shangri La. If you can, go!

Upper Yubeng consists of these houses and a couple more behind me. The school is in the top right. Currently, it is still underdeveloped but with a major upgrade to the road to the Meili Mountain area to be finished in the summer of 2011, more tourist dollars should flow through Yubeng and it will become more developed.
