#mynovgetaway #autumn Balagezong is a relatively new sight in Shangri-La. We were not sure if it’s worth going but turned out it became the highlight of the trip. Gorgeous scenery plus glass bottom viewing platform make the experience unforgettable. #awesomepic

Looking for a great place for a fall hike? I was blown away by Balagezong National Park near Shangri-La in Yunnan Province. It’s simply spectacular and best enjoyed in the late fall after tourist season. The number of guests is far lower and everything much nicer that way. It takes a solid day to visit. #mynovgetaway #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

Balagezong National Park is a phenomenal place in Northern #yunnan Province. If you’re staying in nearby Shangri-La, it’s totally worth it to take a day and visit Balagezong. You’ll spend a fair bit of time on the bus, but there are several spots where you get out and walk. The scenery is fantastic! #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

There’s plenty to enjoy in Shangri-La, but one of the best things is the historic Old Town. We spent just about all of our time here wandering the cobblestone streets and visiting the many shops and restaurants. If you can, book your hotel stay in the Old Town. That way you can enjoy things at night. #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

no electricity, no Wi-Fi, but I don't mind... I'm reading books with candles, when can see them gorge through the window...

#tripaway It was nice to walk down the quiet streets of Shangri-La and have some breathing space compared to the crazy disney-land towns like Dali and Lijiang. #tripaway
