Banyan Tree Ringha Hotel, Yunnan

When traveling through Shangri-La, nothing compares with calling an authentic Tibetan farmhouse your home. Ringha Lodge was built as the private residence of a Tibetan villager, his family and his livestock; it was taken apart, reassembled in its present location and renovated to the highest specifications preserving its historic charm. It’s a personal hideaway that’s ideal for a family or group of four, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a wonderfully atmospheric living area and an enchanting courtyard.

In true Banyan Tree style, Ringha's architecture evokes a sense of place and reflects the local Tibetan culture. All lodges are traditional Tibetan farmhouses that have been painstakingly re-built and feature intricate woodcarvings, cozy fireplaces and wooden balconies that have valley or river views. Impressive pine pillars add enormous character to the two-bedroom lodge.

After a day’s trekking in the mountains there is nothing more divine than returning to the resort and pampering yourself with an indulgent spa treatment in the comfort of your own suite. With a luxurious wooden bathtub and private couple spa treatment room, this spacious one bedroom suite offers the ultimate in rejuvenation.

Savor the rustic charm of the one-bedroom Tibetan Suite, which blends the cozy setting of a Tibetan cottage in the countryside with contemporary colors and furnishings. It's the perfect retreat after a day of cultural and spiritual discovery. You can admire the scenery from your private terrace or indulge in a rejuvenating bath in the handcrafted wooden hot tub of the bathroom.
