"Shangri-La" is the name of a paradise in an American novel, where is it?
"Shangri-La" is the name of a paradise in an American novel, where is it? In 1933, the British writer James Hilton published a novel called "Lost Horizon" (Lost Horizon), the book created a narrow valley called "Blue Moon", a high cliff in the valley called "Shangri-La" (Shangri-La). "Shangri-La, a Tibetan-Chinese and Catholic monastery located on the high cliffs of the valley, and at the end of the valley, a snow-capped mountain in the shape of a standard pyramid called Karakal. This small, hidden world became known as Shangri-La. The synopsis of the novel is as follows: One year around the middle of the 1930s, there is a riot in Baskul, an important city in a country close to British India. The British Consul Conway, Vice-Consul Mallinson, American Barnard and missionary Miss Brinklow are evacuated in a small plane to Peshawar, then in British India. But they were hijacked by fake pilots to somewhere on the wild _Tibetan plateau. Led by an elderly Chinese man who spoke English, they traveled over treacherous mountain passes to a monastery called Shangri-La, perched on a cliff. The Lama Temple governs the Blue Moon Valley, which is home to thousands of people. The area is characterized by multi-ethnicity and multi-religion, and the people there live in harmony under the principle of moderation. "The inhabitants of Shangri-La generally live long lives, but once they leave the area, they no longer live long or even die immediately. "The Lama Temple of Shangri-La is home to many treasures, scrolls, and artifacts from both Eastern and Western civilizations, and the people of the temple are all highly cultured. After many conversations with Conway, the "Supreme Lama" handed over the leadership of Shangri-La to Conway before his death. The American Barnard and the female missionaries also decided to stay for their own reasons. Only Marlinson, who strongly disagreed with Shangri-La, took advantage of the weakness of Conway's character and lured him to flee with him. After wandering around the chaotic world for some time, Conway decides to return to Shangri-La. However, "Shangri-La" is not marked on any map, nor is it known, so how can Kang Wei find a secret passage to "Shangri-La" in the vast Tibetan area? The novel ends in suspense. Hilton, who was not a first-rate writer, left the world two major legacies through the book: the utopian imagination of Shangri-La, and a great suspense left behind due to the large number of seemingly real clues in the novel - where exactly is Shangri-La? Where is Shangri-La? During World War II, President Roosevelt was asked where the American planes bombing Japan took off from, and Roosevelt said: from "Shangri-La". This probably means "no comment" or "don't know". In the decades following World War II, a number of places claimed to have found Shangri-La locally, or were considered by outside tourists to be "Shangri-La" or "the last Shangri-La," including Lahore in Kashmir. These include Ladakh in Kashmir, Nepal, Bhutan, northwestern Yunnan, western Sichuan, southeastern Tibet, the Hunza Valley in Pakistan, and even some remote places in Central Asia. A "world-class celebrity" in Lijiang, Yunnan Province, believes that Hilton based his description of Shangri-La on photographs and articles published in National Geographic magazine by American scholar and explorer Joseph Rock, that the Karakal in the novel was the main peak of the Meili Snow Mountain, Kawagabo, and that the Lama Temple in the novel was the Songtsamling Monastery in Zhongdian. He concluded that Shangri-La was in Zhongdian, a remote snowy town in northwestern Yunnan, and that the original Tibetan name for Shangri-La was "Shambhala". (The above is quoted from the report "Feeling Northwest Yunnan" of the Beijing Post Weekly news mission to Northwest Yunnan in June-July 2002.) In September 1997, the People's Government of Yunnan Province announced that Shangri-La was in the Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, and in 2001 the State Council approved the renaming of Zhongdian County, the capital of Diqing Prefecture, as Shangri-La County. Local officials believe that Shangri-La is a Tibetan word meaning "the sun and moon in the heart," and that it is written in English as "Shangrila" (quoted above from the website of the Diqing Prefecture government). Diqing and Zhongdian's "grabbing" of Shangrila has caused chagrin, anger and questions in many neighboring areas (e.g., Lijiang, Nujiang, Dacheng, Chasum, etc.) because the natural and human characteristics similar to those of Shangrila are so similar that they are not recognized as such. "The natural and humanistic landscapes similar to Shangri-La are also found there, or even "more like it". As a result, the 7th issue of Chinese National Geographic in 2004 drew a big circle on the map of Southwest China, and launched a big reconciliation and inclusion program - stop it guys! You all belong to the "Greater Shangri-La", OK? The patent battle over "Shangri-La", the wave of tourism development in the region, and the many crude buildings in the area, all of which are labeled "Shangri-La", are just a few examples. The patent battle over "Shangri-La", the wave of tourism development in the region, and the "Shangri-La" plaques on many crude buildings in the region, all these phenomena have made the remote, mysterious, and off-the-beaten-path "Shangri-La" degenerate into the world, and become a lucrative commercial brand that benefits all. In "Vanishing Horizon", the main character, Conway, was worried that avalanches or landslides would bring the "Blue Moon Valley" to nothing, and when I traveled in the "Shangri-La" area, a subtle sound of collapse reached my heart. "Shangri-La" speculation in a number of fallacies It is also worth noting that, in the "Shangri-La" related speculation, there are many fallacies, scholars, experts, celebrities say nonsense with their eyes open, the network, donkeys and friends are blackmail. This author feels more puzzled, uneasy. In the face of fallacies, blind words and indifferent, or even concur with, contribute to, is one of the common diseases of our society. Around the "Shangri-La" hype and rhetoric, I think there are at least the following fallacies: Fallacy 1 Hilton's "Shangri-La" has been found, it is in Yunnan Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. First of all, "Shangri-La" is a nebulous idealized utopia widely circulated around the world, and using a real place to correspond to it and lock it up will undermine its value as a leading ideal in human society. This would be destroying rather than building Shangri-La. Secondly, to take a step back, according to the clues provided in the original text of "The Disappearing Horizon", the location of "Shangri-La" is in some unknown deep valley on the Tibetan plateau, not in Northwest Yunnan. The author will discuss this point in another article. Again, Ladakh in Indian-controlled Kashmir, the Hunza Valley in Pakistan (the only place Hilton ever visited that also claimed to be "Shangri-La"), Nepal, Bhutan, and Tibet's Tsatsumi, Bomi, and Linzhi in China, Lijiang City and Nujiang Prefecture in northwestern Yunnan Province, as well as Inacheng in western Sichuan Province, and also in the western and northern regions of Tibet, may all have been recorded by foreign explorers. The record of foreign explorers became the prototype material for Hilton's creation of "Shangri-La". The fact that Diqing Prefecture "seizes" the name "Shangri-La" and monopolizes the moonlight of the world only shows that Diqing Prefecture has a head start in the commercial competition, and when it comes to the situation of natural and human resources, it can only be said that each of the abovementioned places has its own characteristics and strengths, but they are far away from the "Shangri-La" in the novel. "Shangri-La" in the appearance and inner temperament have distance. Fallacy 2 "Shangri-La" is a dialect of the Tibetan language of Zhongdian, meaning "the sun and moon in the heart", and its English is Shangrila. Diqing state officials quoted some "experts" as saying that "Shangri-La" is a place where the sun and the moon are in the heart. Diqing state official quoted some "experts" to prove that "Shangri-La" originated from the Tibetan dialect of Zhongdian. The word "shang" means "heart" in Tibetan, and the word "ge" is equivalent to the Chinese auxiliary "的"; "Lira" means "sun and moon". Together, "Shangri-La" means "the sun and moon in the heart", and Shangrila should be pronounced: Shan-g-rila. This is a blatant falsification of Hilton's original. "Shangri-La" is Shangri-La in English, and Hilton clearly mentioned in the novel that La means "Mountain Pass" in Tibetan. In the high mountain areas of Tibet and Kashmir, there are many place names with the suffix "La", mostly referring to the passes in the rugged mountains. "Shangri-La" means a mountain pass named "Shangri" (Shangri), which is just a common Tibetan place name made up by the novelist, and there is no such thing as a secret word in the beginning. The author does not deny that there are some shadows of Shangri-La in Diqing, but there is no need for some people to fabricate some false evidence in order to prove that Diqing is Shangri-La, and to change the meaning of Shangri-La into The meaning of Shangri-La has been altered to "the sun and the moon in the heart" so as to match the ambiguous pronunciation of a certain word in the Tibetan dialect of Diqing. Fallacy 3: "Shangri-La" means "Shambhala". In the popular speech about "Shangri-La", "Shangri-La" is equated with "Shambhala", and "Shambhala" is said to be the same as "Shambhala" in the Zhongdian dialect. In popular speech, "Shangri-La" is equated with "Shambala", saying that the pronunciation of "Shambala" in the Zhongdian dialect is "Shangri-La". "Shambhala" is Tibetan Buddhism and benzoism **** there is an ancient phrase, refers to a kind of man and god **** there, man and nature in harmony **** birth of the ideal pure land, is "located in the far north of the world of bliss". For Tibetans, "far north", "distant Shambhala" where exactly? Is it the self-proclaimed "Shangri-La" of Diqing in the southeast? Tibetan researchers Zhang Qing have in the "Shambhala - Tibetan Buddhism ideal pure land" ("Tibet art research", 1997.2) in an article, citing the Tibetan scholars Amang Ban Zhida words: Shambhala is the human holding Ming's holy land, is located in the support of the northern part of the continent, the terrain is round, such as the eight-petal lotus, the center of the King's Palace. Zhang also pointed out that: Tibetan Buddhism schools of monks, masters believe that in the main peak of Mount Gangdishen near a place, there is a mysterious place called "Shambhala", Shambhala successive generations of the king of the law is in charge of the 9.6 million city states composed of the happiness of the kingdom. Zhang also cited Tibetan scholars Manlung Guru, Trijie Jue Danzaba co-authored the "Shambhala Road Guide" in the view: Shambhala in the south-west of Tibet, Uttar Pradesh, India, somewhere in the north, may be a mysterious world surrounded by snow-covered mountains, but also in the vicinity of the Earth in a space (i.e., not on the Earth). Therefore, the possible "location" of "Shambhala" is either in the "far north" of the Tibetan settlement, or in the "southwest of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet", or in the "west of Tibet". "or in the southwest of Tibet, or in the vicinity of Mount Gangdisê in western Tibet, or not on earth, or according to a popular saying - in the heart of every human being. In any case, there are no clues pointing "Shambhala" to Diqing, on the border between China and Tibet, to the east of Tibet. Nor does "Shambhala" have anything to do with Hilton's invented "Shangri-La". Comprehensive Tibetan Buddhist description of "Shambhala", "Shambhala" and "Shangri-La" have many differences: 1. Different landforms and size. Shangri-La: Lama Temple is not in the center of the valley; Shambhala: a huge kingdom in concentric circles, the king's palace is located in the center. Shambhala is a wide land, Shangri-La is a narrow valley. 2. Different human conditions. Shangri-La: the population of only a few thousand, and even some of the beauty of the bleak; Shambhala: there are countless city-states, populated by a large number of densely populated, bustling and prosperous. 3. Different political systems. Shangri-La: loose governance; Shambhala: centralized monarchical system. 4. Different cultural patterns and concepts. Shangri-La: cultural Sino-Tibetan, East and West, multicultural **** existence; Shambhala: viciously swore to purge the pagans and the establishment of a purely Buddhist kingdom. 5. Different meanings of words. "Shangri-La" according to the official interpretation of the Diqing, is the Tibetan language "heart of the sun and moon" meaning; and "Shambhala" in the Tibetan language means "northern Elysium". 6. Different rulers. Shangri-La" is a utopia made up by Westerners and their imagination of the East, a fabrication of the "Western body used in the West", and the leaders of "Shangri-La" and their successors are Westerners; whereas "Shambhala" means "Northern Bliss" in Tibetan; and "Shambhala" means "Northern Bliss" in Tibetan. The leaders of "Shangri-La" and their successors are Westerners; the "Shambhala Kings" are of Indian and Tibetan origin. Obviously, the "Shambhala" that has been passed down from generation to generation among the Tibetans and the "Shangri-La" that was invented by the Westerner Hilton in the 1930s are two different things. Fallacy 4 American explorer Joseph Locke and the Republic of China, Liu Manqing's travels have said, Diqing's Zhongdian area is "Shangri-La". First of all, Locke's travels in the "most like" "Shangri-La" place is not in Zhongdian but in the west of Sichuan near the city of rice. Secondly, when Locke wrote his travels, Hilton's The Vanishing Horizon had not yet appeared, so how could Locke say that Inacheng or Zhongdian was "Shangri-La"? Some people say that Locke's travelogue published in the United States in 1931 has confirmed that Aden is "Shangri-La", and I doubt it: did Locke know that there was "Shangri-La" at that time? More importantly, the real value of "Shangri-La" does not lie in the appearance of the landscape, but in the purity and harmony of the spirit and humanity. In Locke's travelogue, near the city of paddy fields are rampant bandits, he wants to be heavily armed Naxi escort and prepare many gifts to enlist the local warlords and bandits, which is not like a "Shangri-La trip"? Leave Inacheng aside, and then look at Diqing. Many "Diqing faction" is also keen to quote Liu Manqing (entered Tibet in the early 1930s), "Kangzang Recruitment" in the "Zhongdian" entry in the praise of the scenery of Zhongdian --- "It is as if Wuling is in the middle of the world. "It is as if I were a fisherman in Wuling, mistakenly entering the fairyland of peach origin" and so on, used to prove that "Shangri-La is in Zhongdian". However, they do not dare to face the "Zhongdian" entry also mentioned in the "city streets *** only two, cattle and horses, muddy, stagnant odor to cover the nose" of the poor public **** health environment, as well as Liu Manqing's later question: "Is it true that the people of Zhongdian have been living in a paradise for years? This is not the case". In the sequel to the Kangzang Recruitment, the situation of bandits in Zhongdian was also faithfully recounted, with 800 to 900 guns in the Guihua Monastery (the present Songtsamlin Monastery), and "as a matter of self-defense, every family in Zhongdian purchased firearms". This kind of households and even the Songtsam Forest Monastery are purchasing firearms chaos, can let a person have a "Shangri-La" feeling? Whether it is Liu Manqing, or Joseph Rock, their travelogue not only can not prove that "Shangri-La is not far away", but only prove that "Shangri-La is still far away". From this point of view, it is very wise and logical for Hilton to place his "Shangri-La" in the depths of the Tibetan plateau, which is far away from the right and wrong places of human beings. In the 1930s, when the dissemination of global information was increasing, and when the veil of Oriental mystery of Chinese society was gradually being lifted, and the dark and backward side of China was becoming more and more known to the outside world, it was no longer possible for Westerners to land in the interior of China or on the border between China and Tibet. Just like dodging the Great Flood, the tail end of the Westerners' beautiful imagination about China can only land in the mysterious no-man's land on the Tibetan plateau. Myth #5 The pyramid-like Karakal Snow Mountain in the book is the Kawagabo Snow Mountain in Diqing Prefecture. The "Diqing School" or "Inaccessible School" also has an argument that their local area has "pyramid-shaped snow-capped mountains" with straight lines like those depicted in "Vanishing Horizon". If only from the shape of the snow mountain, in the West than Locke's more famous Sven Hedin also described Central Asia, Western Tibet, a number of standard pyramid snow mountain, and the world's most like the pyramid of the snow mountain, may be no one compared to the western region of Tibet, the sacred mountain of the Gonzales (Hedin's travels have described this sacred mountain). Coincidentally, according to a Tibetan Buddhist saying, the pyramid-shaped near the Gonzales, is the entrance to the paradise of "Shambhala". Many experts believe that the Kawagabo Snow Mountain in Deqin County, Diqing Prefecture, is the Karakal Snow Mountain in the book, and take this as an important evidence that "Shangri-La" is in Diqing Prefecture. They also made great efforts to argue that: firstly, Kavagabo Snow Mountain is very similar to the pyramid-shaped Karakal Snow Mountain in the novel; secondly, Kavagabo is pronounced as "Karakal" in the dialect of Deqin. This author puts forward the following different opinions: First, in 2003, I turned to the mountain had seen the clear outline of the Kawagabo, really extraordinary appearance, temperament honorable, but if it is like a pyramid, that must be three-dimensional geometry did not learn well. The angle of its mountain line has 120 degrees, like an upside down open fan, not at all like the novel that kind of square pyramid. Secondly, the meaning of the names Kawagabo Snow Mountain and Karakal Snow Mountain are very different. Kavagabo in Tibetan is "white snow mountain" meaning, caracal in the novel is the local Tibetan dialect "blue moon" meaning, this white and blue, how can be involved together? As for the local dialect reads "Kavagabo" as "Karakal", not to mention the great difference in pronunciation between the two, whether the local dialect really reads "Kavagabo" as "Karakal" or not. The local dialect has yet to verify whether it really pronounces "Kavagbo" as "Caracal". I do think that Hilton's creation of the snow-capped Karakal Mountain may have borrowed from the descriptions of the sacred mountain of Gunjungpozi by Western explorers, including Sven Hedin. This relict pyramid-shaped sacred mountain is too well known in the West for Hilton to be unaware of the snowy mountain. Possibly the most pyramid-like snow mountain in the world, Gang Rinpoche is also a worldwide sacred mountain, recognized as the center of the world by both Tibetan Buddhism, Hinduism, Tibet's original religion of Benjaminism, and ancient Jainism, where the great rivers of the Ganges, Indus, and Brahmaputra all originate. As such, Gonarezhou does indeed fit Hilton's description of the inner spirit of the Karakal Snow Mountain - it is like a great, divine lighthouse that shines on "Shangri-La" and on the world. Let the Shangri-La rest in the imagination, so I summarize as follows: Hilton's description of "Shangri-La", most likely referred to a number of Western explorers of the relevant records, and its reality must be more than one archetype, but it is clear that none of the archetypes from the appearance, temperament, present the complete "Shangri-La" - the appearance, temperament of the complete "Shangri-La" - is not a good idea. Shangri-La" - even the sum of all the archetypes is not enough, because there are also elements in "Shangri-La" that come from Hilton's literary imagination and his unique political concepts. To pin "Shangri-La" on a specific state or county is pure hype and exaggeration. The material of the novel may include not only the descriptions of western explorers of northwestern Yunnan and western Sichuan, but also the descriptions of western Tibet, southeastern Tibet, Kashmir, Nepal, and Bhutan, as well as their descriptions of the Himalayan, Karakorum, and Kunlun Mountain regions. For example, Ladakh, Kashmir, which has long been regarded by Westerners as "Shangri-La", in the north of the Karakoram, south of the Himalayas in the closed environment, multi-ethnic, multi-religious and harmonious **** features, and there are a lot of "La" as a suffix and there are many place names with "La" as a suffix. Before Hilton wrote "Vanishing Horizon", the beauty and tranquility of Ladakh was already known to many Westerners. In addition, Hilton had never been to China, but not necessarily to a place similar to Shangri-La, because it is difficult to get the nuanced descriptions in the book from secondary sources alone. In fact, in 1931, Hilton had come to northern Pakistan, a beautiful, primitive, remote snow-capped valley - Hunza, which is located in the world's three major mountain ranges - the Himalayas, Karakorum, the Hindu Kush confluence, the scenery is beautiful, the inhabitants generally live long lives. For more information on the above, please refer to the English website related to Hunza Valley. Accordingly, we can guess that Hunza Valley may have given Hilton the most direct inspiration for the creation of "Shangri-La". From the novel, we can also see that Hilton was familiar with the mountains of northern Pakistan, so he would let the small plane land there to refuel, and also mentioned the local Pathans. Two years after traveling through the Hunza Valley, Hilton published The Vanishing Horizon. So don't take offense to the "Diqing faction", it's the "Hunza faction" that's most upset! Although there are many places that declare themselves to be Shangri-La, the only place that has changed its name to Shangri-La is Zhongdian in Diqing Prefecture, Yunnan Province, where the world's only airport is named Shangri-La. There is also the only airport in the world named "Shangri-La". I admit that some of the shadow of "Shangri-La" in Diqing, but through the government's actions to name themselves as "Shangri-La" seems inappropriate. "Shangri-La" this Tibetan people and even the whole world people *** have intangible cultural heritage, let it continue to exist in the imagination and legend, perhaps more valuable. In the "Diqing - Zhongdian" is "Shangri-La" in all kinds of arguments, full of strong words, far-fetched and blackmail, full of power operations and commercial speculation. About "Shangri-La" and "Shambhala", Songtsamlin Monastery and "Shangri-La" Lama Temple, Kawagabo and Karakal, we just need to carefully compare, we will find them We only need to compare them carefully, and we will realize that they are really far apart. However, why do so many people in our society always use falsehoods or agree with the "mainstream discourse"? We should reflect on this.
Where is this? In which province
Go to Google Maps and find it.
Now the map are carried out satellite positioning system, or open the satellite navigation system, directly see where not on the line, Taierzhuang is located in Shandong Province, Zaozhuang City, is located in the junction of Jiangsu and Shandong, also known as the Canal City. It's also known as the Canal City. In ancient times, it was a place where soldiers had to fight, and in modern times, there was the Taierzhuang Battle, which is why it's also known as "the place where the Chinese people are powerful and unyielding".
Here in ancient times is still a place where soldiers must fight, it can be seen that the geographic location of Taierzhuang is very important, and still retains a lot of relics, but also by the World Tourism Organization known as the living canal. The city still retains many ruins and has been hailed as a living canal by the World Tourism Organization.
The origin of Shangri-La
Shangri-La is located in Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, in fact, what we call Shangri-La is the short name for Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. Shangri-La means the sun and the moon in Tibetan. The word "Shangri-La" originates from the kingdom of Shambhala in the Tibetan scriptures.
In the history of Tibetan Buddhism, it has been widely mentioned as the highest state of the "pure king". In modern vocabulary, it is also synonymous with the "Garden of Eden"." Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province is also known as Shangri-La, probably because it is the ideal spiritual home of the people, which can be found here in many ways.
What is the legendary Shangri-La? The first time I saw it, I was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night.
In 1933, the British writer James Hilton published a novel called "Lost Horizon" (Lost Horizon), which created a long and narrow valley called "Blue Moon", a high cliff located in the valley called "Shangri-La" (Shangri-La), and the "Blue Moon" (Blue Moon). "Shangri-La, a Tibetan-Chinese and Catholic monastery located on the high cliffs of the valley, and at the end of the valley, a snow-capped mountain in the shape of a standard pyramid called Karakal.
