Shangrila

Old town

Wander the old town at the south end of town.

Horses

Tibetan horses are available for hire outside of town. Taxi drivers should know how to get there.

Private homes

Visit the homes of local people. Many of the locals open up their homes to tourists. They ask for a small fee to compensate for the food. You can hang out with the family, and the younger adults will lead you to ride horses in the open field. Mind you the Tibetan horses are trained, but they can be very unfriendly towards strangers.
