The Potatso National Park in Shangri-la, Yunnan province, welcomed its most beautiful season of the year. The blue sky, white cloud, clear lake and wetland, forest, grass, rare animals and plants create a poetic natural painting during summer.

The national park located at the southeast of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau features high biodiversity. In recent years, it has developed tourism with ecological preservation as top priority. The tourism revenue is used in environmental protection, which has brought it to a path of sustainable development.
