Banyan Tree Ringha Tibetan Village, Zhongdian (Shangri-La)

In true Banyan Tree style, Ringha's architecture evokes a sense of place and reflects the local culture. All lodges are traditional Tibetan farmhouses that have been painstakingly re-built and feature intricate woodcarvings, cosy fireplaces and wooden balconies that have valley or river views. Impressive pine pillars add enormous character to the two-bedroom lodge. All rooms have private balcony, direct dial telephone, colour television with international channels, mini bar, room safe, hair-dryer, bathrobes and tea & coffee making facilities. Since Zhongdian is an area of high altitude, oxygen tanks are available at the hotel should you experience shortness of breath.
