Songtsam Linka Shangri-la
Di Qing Zang Zu Zi Zhi Zhou, China · Songtsam Linka · July 2026
Songtsam Linka Shangri-La is a Tibetan-style retreat in the highland landscape of Shangri-La, Yunnan, positioned beside Songzanlin Monastery and surrounded by villages, barley fields and mountain scenery. The property is arranged in stone buildings inspired by Kham architecture, with rooms that combine timber floors, fireplaces, Tibetan carpets and handcrafted details with contemporary comforts. Dining focuses on Chinese, Tibetan and Western cooking, including local ingredients such as yak meat, highland grains and seasonal mushrooms. A spa offers Tibetan-inspired treatments in a quiet setting, while the surrounding area invites visits to the monastery, village walks and exploration of the wider Diqing plateau. The atmosphere is calm, rooted in place and more closely connected to the landscape than to urban Shangri-La.
