Dear friends: %D%A Hello everyone! Today, with a happy mood, as the local host, I welcome guests from afar to visit Diqing. I wish you a pleasant stay here! %D%A Before you leave for Diqing, you must have heard some rumors about Zhongdian and Diqing. Otherwise, how can you travel thousands of miles to Diqing for sightseeing, regardless of the long journey? %D%A As the saying goes, "Seeing is believing". Now that you have been there, you should see our Diqing with your own eyes. First of all, thank you for coming and welcome the distinguished guests in Tibetan: "Shangri-La!" "%D%A After listening to my welcome speech in Tibetan, you may be puzzled. How can you welcome us in this pidgin language? Wait a minute, that's what I want to tell you. "Shangri-La" is our Tibetan language, which means "old friend, you are here"! That is, I am very happy to greet you and welcome you. Are you happy to understand this meaning? Let me say Shangri-La again! "Old friend, you're here! Welcome you "! %D%A However, "Shangri-La" means something else in English, and "Shangri-La" means Xanadu. What a coincidence! Our Diqing is a real Shangri-La, a paradise on earth and a fairyland on earth! To understand this, we have to start with the origin of the English word Shangri-la. 1933, the famous British novelist james hilton wrote a novel The Lost Horizon. The story begins like this: a British diplomat named Wei and his three friends came to the roof of the world on a hijacked plane. During the flight, the gasoline ran out and was finally forced to land in a world of ice and snow. They know the exact location, run out of ammunition and food, and have no way out. At the moment of despair, they met Tibetans who went into the mountains to dig coptis and Fritillaria. Seeing that they were desperate, these kind Tibetans helped them, took them home and gave them a place to live. They got out of danger and came to the Tibetan residence. When they woke up the next day, they opened their eyes and looked around. What a beautiful and magical paradise it is! Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, the land is fertile, the sun is shining, the folk customs are simple, and man and nature live in harmony. With the help of Tibetans, they set foot on the road home. When they want to come back to see it again, they can't find the exact place, except that they often hear a saying from Tibetans: "Shangri-La." The lost horizon "-the book called this place" Shangri-La ". And made a wonderful description of the environment of this place: the Tibetan area in the southwest of China is an eternal, peaceful and quiet place. There are grasslands surrounded by snow-capped mountains, sunny and fresh air, unfathomable living buddhas, sacred and quiet lakes, splendid and mysterious temples, and simple and kind Kangba Tibetans. Everything is like the Garden of Eden in people's dreams, where life can be eternal ...% d% a The birth of this book caused a sensation in the world and attracted millions of readers in Qian Qian, so the word Shangri-La entered the English dictionary. %D%A For many years, Shangri-La has been a paradise for many people, especially westerners. For more than half a century, countless explorers have searched for this mysterious place in Tibetan areas of China, Indian and Nepalese places. The mystery was finally solved. After many investigations, it has been fully confirmed that the word "Shangri-La" created in Lost Horizon belongs to Diqing Tibetan. It also means "sacred land" and "bodhisattva in the heart". %D%A Now I will introduce you to the real Shangri-La-Diqing. %D%A Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture is located in the northwest of Yunnan Province, adjacent to Xizang Autonomous Region in the northwest, covering an area of 23,870 square kilometers, including Zhongdian, Weixi and Deqin counties, and inhabited by Tibetans, Lisu, Han, Bai, Yi, Hui, Pumi, Gong and Nu. %D%A Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture is located in the heart of the national scenic spot with three parallel rivers, with three rivers accounting for two rivers and snow-capped mountains accounting for 70%, forming the main body of the scenic spot with three parallel rivers. %D%A Zhongdian County, the capital of Diqing Prefecture, is more than 640 kilometers away from Kunming. Diqing Prefecture is the commanding height of Yunnan Province, with many towering mountains in the territory. The famous one is the Kage Peak, the first peak in Yunnan at an altitude of 6740 meters. It is a pilgrimage site of Tibetan Buddhism and ranks first among the eight sacred mountains in Tibetan areas. Other peaks include Prince Thirteen Peak, Prince Snow Mountain, 5,396 meters above sea level, Baimang Snow Mountain, 5 137 meters above sea level, and more than 4,500 meters above sea level. There are many meadows and dams around %D%A Snow Mountain, which is the place where people of all ethnic groups in Diqing live and multiply. Here, the land is fertile, the water plants are abundant, and there are flocks of cattle, sheep and horses, especially in Zhongdian County, where there is really a scenery of "the sky is grey, the wild is boundless, the wind blows low, and the cattle and sheep are low". On the Zhongdian grassland in May, the green grassland, azaleas, Gesanghua and countless kinds of small flowers on the hillside compete to open, which are colorful, just like colorful carpets. Horses gallop, cattle and sheep roll, eagles soar, and shepherds sing pastoral songs and wave whip under the white clouds and blue sky. This is life in a fairyland on earth, a vivid and beautiful picture. %D%A In the middle or between the snow-capped mountains and meadows, there is a big mirror-dotted with natural lakes. The famous scenic lakes in Diqing include Bita Sea, Napa Sea and Dushu Sea. These sacred and quiet lakes, reflecting snow-capped mountains, forests, blue sky and white clouds, attract animals and cattle, retain all kinds of birds and beasts, and become a paradise where people and nature can live happily. %D%A is surrounded by mountains. On the meadow or hillside, people of all ethnic groups here have established villages: Tibetan thick-walled houses with large roofs and wide corridors, wooden houses of Yi, Lisu, Nu and Naxi nationalities, quadrangles of Han nationality, three rooms, one wall and four patios, which are distinctive and eye-catching. %D%A We celebrate Diqing. As described in Lost Horizon, rivers are ponds and canyons are narrow and deep. In Diqing Prefecture, the three rivers flow in parallel, and the Jinsha River and Lancang River roll in from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. On the rampage in Hengduan mountain area, the embankment broke stones, causing many canyons; In many places, Tongren Valley on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is close to each other, and rapids and rapids are connected. No stone, no water, no life, as dangerous as a ball. It's really "a bird can't fly without a door, and a monkey climbs a rock and tears." "%D%A Along the Lancang River in Deqin County, Diqing County, you can see the geological landscape of the collision between the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate, and you can see the three-dimensional plants, rare animals, precious flowers and precious medicinal materials produced by the three-dimensional climate. %D%A Shangri-La is a paradise on earth, which everyone yearns for. Therefore, people of insight in the world tourism industry call a five-star hotel, the best hotel in the world, Shangri-La Hotel.
