weather (autumn) :
15-21'C (kunming, dali, lijang)

Kunming's airport name still sounds very unique to me... Kunming WUJIABA International Airport ~ 昆明巫家坝国际机场. I'm here for the second time....
Yulong Snow Mountain, Lijang (玉龍雪山, 麗江) a cable ride to the top of the mountain, freezing at (-10C)... altitude 4560m above sea level, i experienced the raindrops/snow... well, shall i say "ice drops" !!! and it was extremely pain when it hits on my face. But that was a great experience tho'....

From Shangri-la....
Shangri-la, also known as "the sun & the moon" in the Tibetian hearts ~ " 心中的日月", located 360km to the border of Tibet, altitude of approx. 3300m above sea level, temp between 3-14C... tour members experienced headache, vomit due to altitude sickness. Suggest to prepare an oxygen cyclinder in case of emergency needs. The term "Shangri-la" comes from Xiangbala & originates in Tibetian Buddhism, equivalent to the phrases such as "The Garden of Eden", an ideal kingdom, Xanadu & a Utopia of the modern glossaries. It is believed by many people that Shangri-la is a fairlyland on earth, a homeland of beauty & a tranquility of luck... here... I can feel the freedom like drifting wind + gentleness like the clouds. This place is just like a fairyland, it was so amazing!!!
"香格里拉" 源于藏经中的香巴拉王国, 是 "佛国胜地" 的最高境界, 是现代词汇中的 "伊甸园, 理想国, 世外桃园" 的代名词. 香格里拉 - 像是一個神仙居住的美好之所. 那里几乎没有烦恼, 没有忧愁, 像是神秘最美的国度... 可是这里海拔3300 米, 太高了. 加上早上3-5C的天氣实在是太冷了, 受不了... 很多客人都有高山反應.. 还好, 我還算是身体健康的一位. 没事, 没事...
