✦ Synopsis

1933年，当詹姆斯• 希尔顿撰写他的经典小说《消失的地平线》的时侯，绝没有想到会让几代人思考这样一个问题："香格里拉在哪里？"作者龙安志（Laurence J.Brahm）踏上寻找香格里拉的旅程，穿越世界上几个现存环境最好的地区—西藏、青海和云南，采访了艺术家、舞蹈家、音乐家、流行歌手、时装设计师、作家、摇滚乐队成员、环境活动家、僧人、活佛、牧民和少数民族人士。结果发现，真正的香格里拉不仅是一个地方，而是一种观念，一种生活方式。（Laurence Brahm is an environmentalist, international lawyer, author, and chief economist of the New Earth Institute.
