Accommodation Guide - Shangri-La City: We highly recommend the homestays in Dukezong Ancient Town. There are many options, affordable prices, and convenient transportation. However, the roads in the ancient town are rugged, making it inconvenient to carry luggage. Remember to contact the homestay owner in advance for pick-up. - Meili Snow Mountain: Stay near Feilai Temple, where you can see the sunrise over the snow-capped mountains. However, there are limited hotels and prices are slightly higher. - Yubeng Village: Upper Yubeng Village is an excellent choice. It is located at a high altitude, offering a panoramic view of Lower Yubeng and a distant view of the snow-capped mountains, making it a great place for photography. Food Recommendations Butter tea, barley cakes, yak meat, Nixi chicken, and Tibetan pastries are all unique flavors of Shangri-La.
