This is a special hotel I have stayed in, with a strong Tibetan style!

This is a special hotel I have stayed in, with a strong Tibetan style. Feel the beauty of the years The dizziness brought by the thin air of the plateau Let your thoughts wander between dreams and reality Until you arrive at the lobby, drink a cup of warm tea, and your soul will be at ease. The exquisite brass room card light source retains a warm tone The heavy curtain cloth blocks the howling cold wind on the plateau at night, and the small balcony enjoys the scenery of the barren mountains and ridges in the morning alone The carefully arranged layout meets all the needs of the traveler's hard work. It is the most beautiful pure land in the distance Shangri-La Songzan Linka is located in a village behind Songzanlin Temple. The road to the hotel is narrow and hidden, which fits the concept of Songzan's "hidden door". Tibetan-style castles stand by the mountains, and the room balcony can overlook Songzanlin Temple. At breakfast time, the morning light is like a Buddha light, the temple's golden dome is magnificent and solemn, the fields and villages are quiet and peaceful, and the restaurant window is a mural of divinity and humanity intertwined. The color of the room is the five colors of white, blue, red, green and yellow in Tibet. In addition to the yellow of the wall, the other colors used in the soft outfit are low saturation and low brightness, less enthusiasm, more heavy and quiet feeling, the next day I went to Songzanlin Temple and found that the large area of bright yellow wall in the room was in the same line as the temple wall. Wooden furniture, Thangka, bronze ware, black pottery, Tibetan pattern fabrics, are naturally ironed and placed in the space, the deep religious culture of the snow-capped plateau, the simple and rough lifestyle of Tibet is integrated into the details. The hotel's public area is very good for shopping, there are Norlha Nole, BA bakery, Ancestor Bird joint store, Tibetan carpet store, Songzan Fengwu boutique store, and a small Tibetan culture museum. Every morning, the hotel's Tibetan guide will take guests to walk to Songzanlin Temple, explaining Tibetan Buddhist culture along the way, and the tickets are complimentary from the hotel, which can be entered multiple times during the stay. Songzan's service is needless to say, most of the waiters are local Tibetans, and the butler-style service is attentive and responsive at any time. This year, the Shangri-La Airport Songzan VIP Hall and security check channel have been opened, and you can make an appointment with the housekeeper one day in advance. The two Songzans in Shangri-La are respectively the starting points of the Linka and Mountain Residence series. They have been criticized for their old hardware for a long time, but I personally think that there are many modern new hotels, but it is rare to extend the hotel experience to the local cultural comprehensive experience. Songzan gives guests a sense of connection with this land. The hotel is not just a temporary residence for "sleeping", the hotel is the destination.
