A distant and secluded hideaway of mesmerising beauty and peace
At Gyalthang Dzong Hotel in Yunnan, China you will discover your own Shangrila... a distant and secluded hideaway of mesmerising beauty and peace. A remote paradise on earth where harmony reigns, where the gods walk among the people, and where man and nature embrace.
For a holiday in a place as novel as it is ancient, choose an Angsana-managed hotel. Gyalthang Dzong Hotel is a typical Tibetan building but with a unique architecture in 'Tibetan lamasery' style.
The storied tales of Shangrila are not new to travellers. The Southern Silk Road began in Sichuan province to the north, crossed the length of Yunnan and continued on to Vietnam. Some 2,000 years later, the region gained a new mystique as the setting in James Hilton's novel 'Lost Horizon'. Today, with the opening of China, Gyalthang Dzong Hotel is the ideal base for intrepid travellers visiting this exotic destination.
