Songzan study tour

A Tibetan hotel designed by a filmmaker.

Amazing world.

Songzan is the best boutique hotel chain in China.

Baima Duoji is an insurmountable folklore.

When the overwhelming media began to report crazily,

Songzan Hotel is too hot to find a room.

Former CCTV director and top hotel designer

But light said 1:

"I'm not building a hotel, I'm just building a home"

He went out and came back.

Just to keep the last Shangri-La.

What made Bai Maduoji resign as the director of CCTV and return to his hometown? Just because a colleague who has been to Shangri-La inadvertently complained:

"How can you live in such a beautiful scenery?"

And his hometown complex is particularly heavy. He just felt sorry for his colleagues and hometown. He asked himself:

Should I do something for the best place in the world?

So he quit his well-paid job and resolutely returned to Shangri-La to start his hotel project.

Who knows, this is 17.

He demolished the house in his hometown and built his first Songzan (Songzan Green Valley, also known as Songzan Shangri-La) on the homestead in Kena village, next to Songzanlin Temple, the largest Tibetan Gelug Buddhist temple in Yunnan.

This humble small building with Tibetan civil structure faces a lake inhabited by waterfowl and the hillside around the lake. In summer, there are wild flowers everywhere. In winter, if it snows at night, opening the window in the morning is an unreal snow mountain.

There are goldfish, azaleas and wisteria in the sunny yard. The fire in a comfortable restaurant always warms every passerby, low-key, unobtrusive, but silent, attracting passers-by.

Save the last Shangri-La.

Turn the hotel into a tourist loop.

Praise has created a great reputation and made Songzan more and more popular, which gave Baima a new idea: many people hurried back just after they got off the plane and walked around Shangri-La.

Growing up in Shangri-La, he knows that the beauty of Shangri-La lies in the deepest place, and the deeper the more beautiful it is. The valley where Lancang River, Nujiang River and Jinsha River meet is the soul of Shangri-La.

What if this line is connected through a hotel?

So six Songzan, Shangri-La, Karin, Benzilan, Tacheng, Meili and Cizhong are dotted in the parallel area of the Three Rivers in turn, connecting the beautiful scenery and national characteristics along the way.

With the services of cars, horses and butlers, plus the authentic in-depth tour around Tibet, a trip is simply a documentary that goes deep into Tibetan areas, with such amazing purpose that you can believe that it is definitely Shambhala described in james hilton's Lost Horizon.

Every family on Songzan Ring Road has made the most perfect site selection, including the original and magnificent natural scenery, human landscape and cultural heritage, as well as the national cultures of Tibetans, Naxi and Lisu, so that the experiencers can appreciate the real cultural value and beautiful scenery!

▲ Bring a bird-watching mirror and go to Napahai to see the black-necked crane that can fly over Mount Everest.

▲ Go to the collector to eat a hearty yak hot pot.

▲ Sing and jump in pots and pans with local ethnic minorities who have come down from farming.

▲ Walk into a family and do Bazin with Tibetans.

▲ Hanging handprint prayer flags in front of the holy mountain.

▲ Learn non-legacy handicrafts and make a Nixi black pottery by hand.

▲ Have an outdoor picnic in Nitin primeval forest.

▲ A thrilling Jinsha River drifting.

▲ The local Songzan housekeeper will give a comprehensive and true explanation of this land they love.

Experienced people can't help but admire:

Other ways of playing are superficial, which is the real entry into Tibet.

There is originality behind success.

Brick by brick and tile by tile.

"There is a word in the movie, montage, which comes from architecture. For Shangri-La, find a suitable place to set up a camera, put the hotel in the position of the camera, consider the environmental scenery and the feelings of this place, and gradually restore the appearance of home in your mind, so as to create a good atmosphere of the hotel. " The white horse said.

▲ Opposite the Meili Snow Mountain Songzan Meili Hotel. In room 17, you can see the continuous Kawagebo.

▲ Stand on the balcony of Sonzameri and shoot live.

So when you live in Songzan, the scenery around you is exquisite. Behind this is the unique landscape composition of a senior director, and then every angle is dead, and finally the hotel is perfectly integrated into the landscape.

At the same time, Baima also thinks: "Since I'm here, I should live in my own home." Therefore, in every hotel in Songzan, local precious Tibetan handicrafts are indispensable. My hobby of collecting Tibetan gadgets helped me a lot. Now, a few hundred card mats are sold at 6W-8W, which is hard to find.

Legend has it that the Tibetan Buddha statues endowed with souls are quietly enshrined in the lobby, as well as the walls of Thangka and exquisite Tibetan handmade toys, all of which are quietly telling their stories.

Family culture is also reflected in the people in Songzan Hotel, 98% of whom are locals. Every employee will nod, smile and greet the guests. Simple plateau red and pious crossing hands are more sincere than ordinary high-end hotel services!

If you change to other waiters with high academic qualifications and high attainments, Mr. Baima refused. He insisted, "I need their simple smiles."

10 Dasongzan Collection

Living here poetically

Karin Lijiang Songzan

Style characteristics: the noblest. Lijiang is the first stop of Songzan Ring Road. Lijiang shop looks at the city by the mountain. Relying on geographical advantages, it faces the ancient city in the east, Yulong in the north, high mountains in the west and the scenery of Lashihai in the distance.

In Songzanlinka, Lijiang, Baima Duoji has reserved more than one third of the building area for public space. Therefore, there are all kinds of swimming pools, spas and gyms, and you have enough time and space to feel the leisurely life in Lijiang.

Songzan Green Valley (Shangri-La)

Style characteristics: the most Tibetan style. Green Valley is the initial and flagship of Songzan, and it is also the most carefully decorated home of Baima. He decorated the whole mountain house with antique furniture and traditional Tibetan carpets he chose. Handmade bathroom copper basin, key card, Tibetan carpet and decoration, everything is carefully made.

The hotel faces a grassland lake, surrounded by mountains, flocks of cattle and sheep and birds are resting and flying. All the beauty is close at hand, and all the tranquility and peace make your own breath sing along with the songs of birds crossing the sky.

Songzan benzilan

Style characteristics: the most secretive. This is a homestay with its own vegetable garden. It is located in a hidden green valley near the Jinsha River. The iconic stone Tibetan small building and the wooden-topped white-walled farmhouse complement each other, and the mountain house is surrounded by white-walled pure Tibetan dwellings.

Benzilan, translated into "Jinsha Dam" in Tibetan, was once an important commercial ferry and turnover center on the ancient tea-horse road. Once in Lhasa, no one knew about Zhongdian and the construction of ponds, but they knew about Benzilan.

Songzanta municipality

Style characteristics: the most idyllic. Songzanta is located in Zibehada village, a village where Tibetans and Naxi people live together. The climate here is the most pleasant, the land is the most fertile, and it is also the hometown of golden monkeys.

Tacheng is like spring all the year round, located between Lancang River and Jinsha River. Here, ancient forests can be seen everywhere, and green landscapes can be seen everywhere.

The design of the mountain house shows the traditional art and style of China. The 9 spacious and comfortable rooms all face the beautiful rice terraces, and the oversized windows and balconies allow guests to have a panoramic view of the quiet water town in the room.

Sonzantz High School

Style characteristics: the most sacred. A hundred years ago, French missionaries ventured to this canyon, bringing Catholicism and wine. Today, the church is still thriving, surrounded by vineyards, and you can taste the "rose honey" that France has long lost. Tibetans, Han, Naxi and Lisu all live here, where western culture and Tibetan culture are perfectly integrated.

Rooms 65,438+00 all face the beautiful Lancang River Valley. On summer nights, they sat quietly by the lotus pond in the garden, watching the stars all over the sky and dreaming a French dream with the Lancang River under their pillows.

Sonzameri

Style features: the most gorgeous. This is a small village with only five villagers. The hotel faces Kawagebo, and almost every room can see the panoramic view of Kawagebo and the continuous snow-capped mountains. On one side is the beautiful Meili Snow Mountain, and on the other side is the Tibetan villages and forests nourished by the Snow Mountain; A stream flows through the village, and the jingle of cowbells makes the mountains more quiet and natural.

Some people come here and do nothing but see the mountains.

But out of the hotel, there will be different gains. For example, you can visit people in the village to learn about local culture and customs, or you can print local prayer flags at home and take them away to pray the next day.

In Meili, enjoy the sacred scenery of Rizhao Jinshan in the morning. In the afternoon, I will hang the prayer flags printed the day before on the mountain pass of Baima Snow Mountain to pray.

Even more beautiful, on the fifteenth day of the first month, the moon is about to set in the west. When the first ray of sunshine shines on the top of the mountain, the moon is still high, and you can see the sight of the sun and the moon shining together.

Lisu Nationality Dazhai, Le Tong

On the way to Songzanz Middle School, visit the Lisu Dazhai in Le Tong and learn about the local life ~

Cizhong church

Cizhong, a village with 1 1,000 people, inhabited by Tibetan, Naxi, Yi, Han and Lisu nationalities, has more than half of Catholics.

Mass in the church every Monday, Wednesday and Friday has become a link you can't miss when you come to Tuscany. Simple villagers sang hymns and blessed each other. The priest preached the Bible to the saints. Love in the Bible was translated into the local language and spread all over the village.

Qudengge-Changing Keys over Mountains and Ridges

In Tibetan Buddhism, turning mountains to pray is a traditional and important part, and turning clockwise is also considered as the best way to pray. Turning to the mountain means that a person's soul will end up on the other side of the mountain, always blessed by the mountain, and his merits will be complete. And "getting the key" is an indispensable step in this religious etiquette.

The "Qudengge" located on the edge of Deqin County is the place to get the "key" of Shenshan Meili. From a distance, "Qudengge" is plain, solemn and quiet. Every day, hundreds of believers come with their wishes and transfer their beliefs, future, children and family members to this temple. If a candle burns, it will last forever.

shigu town

Depart from Lijiang to Tacheng, pass through the First Bay of the Yangtze River and Shigu Town, an important town of the ancient tea-horse road, stroll along the Jinsha River valley and enjoy the pastoral scenery and Naxi village.

Trip Advisor has listed Songzan as the "25 Best Hotels in China" for nine consecutive years, and British aristocratic magazine Tatler has listed Songzan as "10 1 the best hotel in the world".
