Known as the "sun and moon in heart" in Tibetan, and the place that inspired the popular 1930s novel---Lost Horizon. Shangri-La is the capital of Diqing County situated just north of Yunnan Province. The temperature in Shangri-La is vastly different in the south grasslands and north plateau. The south is warm and rainy, with most rainfall occurring between May and September, and warm between June and August. The coldest months are from December to February, where crossing the passes become nearly impossible.
Song Zangling Si is situated at the heart of the Hengduan Mountain range, which has an elevation between 1480 meters abd 6740 meters. Though a lot of the forests have been stripped due to economic modernization, the region still has many areas of virgin forest and a vibrant wildlife that includes yak, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, and amongst rarer species, golden-haired monkey, wild donkey, black-necked crane, pandas, leopards, muskdeer, etc.
