Shangri-La holds global #MyShangriLa photography contest

SHANGRI-LA Hotels and Resorts is running a global photography contest that aims to give new meaning to “Shangri-La” - a memorable, magical moment that catches people by surprise and delights with joy. Guests, travelers and beyond are invited to capture and share their unique Shangri-La moment.

“Shangri-La is both a feeling as well as a place. It’s about an unexpected moment of happiness which can happen to anyone at anytime, anywhere,” said Anthony Wong, executive vice-president for brands at Shangri-La Group. “We taste it at our favorite table. We hear it in a child’s laughter. We discover it in our travels. And it’s different for each one of us. In our hotels and resorts, we strive to go the extra mile to connect our guests with their own Shangri-La through our thoughtful service that comes from the heart.”

Until January 10, 2020, participants are invited to share images of what their Shangri-La looks like on Instagram with #MyShangriLa and @shangrilahotels and on Weibo or upload them to www.shangrila.com/myshangrila. It can be that special occasion or moment or simply a feeling of pure joy and happiness. Photos must be taken at one of Shangri-La’s hotels, resorts or destinations.

Shangri-La will be giving away delightful prizes including 10,000 Golden Circle Award points each month to celebrate the most heartwarming, unexpected moments of joy. As the ultimate grand prize, one winner who shares the most inspiring #MyShangriLa moment will be awarded a two-night getaway inclusive of flights to one of 10 Shangri-La destinations of their choice, including divine and exotic destinations such as Kota Kinabalu, Muscat and Istanbul. The winner will be chosen based on photo quality, creativity and uniqueness of the entry, at the sole discretion of Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts.
