Hylandia by Shangri-La - 恬居·云南香格里拉酒店

Hiding in a land of mystical snowy mountains, deep gorges, primeval forests, wide grasslands and fertile valleys is the Hylandia·Shangri-La Hotel which opened recently. Limelight Studio was invited to shoot this beautiful Shangri-La Hotel in Shangri-La City.

But this was not an easy trip. Although we prepared warmer clothes we found it was not enough as the temperature varied greatly between the day and night. The minimum temperature was only 7 degrees at night time so we all had to buy some clothes there to keep warm. At the second day of the trip, Scott’s assistant Vincent got altitude sickness where he got a bad headache and was throwing up in the morning so we let him rest at the hotel but by the afternoon he was able to get back to work.

In a beautiful place like Shangri-La the shooting was even more enjoyable than usual. Except for the hotel interior and exterior shooting we went to several scenic spots to shoot landscape and lifestyle as well. From the villages in the mountains, BBQ’s, tent picnic’s, pottery den’s, horse riding and monk’s praying gave us all a deep impression of the local Tibetan culture.

The hotel here was named "Hylandia", which refers to the topography of the very special   region in which it is situated. Please enjoy the photos we took for their pre-opening and hope you can feel the special style which the hotel has to offer.

神秘的雪山，深幽的峡谷，苍莽的原始森林，广袤的草原，波光粼粼的湖泊。位于美丽的云南迪庆香格里拉市的恬居 · 云南香格里拉酒店在近期开业了，我们也很荣幸去到这座位于香格里拉的香格里拉酒店进行拍摄。

但是这次旅途并不轻松，虽然有所准备，但到了那里才发现我们衣物都没带够，这里日夜温差相当大，在晚上的温度只有8度，我们只好纷纷在当地买了衣物御寒。在到达迪庆的第二天，Scott的助理Vincent由于高原反应身体不适，还出现了呕吐的症状，只好让他在酒店休息，不过好在到了下午，情况好了很多，也重新开始了工作。

在风景如画的香格里拉，拍摄也更加愉悦。除了酒店，这次我们还为酒店拍摄了一系列景点与情景照，山村，烧烤，帐篷，制陶，藏家美食，僧人祈祷，都给我们留下了当地藏族文化的深刻印象。

这个酒店被命名为“恬居·云南香格里拉”，寓意着在滇西北高原深处的静谧之所。请您欣赏我们为他们开业拍摄的照片，是否能感受到特别的味道呢？
