Shangri-La
From Indiana Jones Wiki
Shangri-La is a fictional lost city originating in the novel Lost Horizon by James Hilton. In it, Hilton describes a lost city high in the Himalayas, protected from the cold by a freak climate.[1] Ronald Coleman, a British diplomat fleeing a collapsing China, becomes stranded there. It is a paradise on earth, with no crime or violence, and the residents are guaranteed virtual immortality.
Dr. Indiana Jones discovered Chanri-Ha, a lost city remarkably similar to Shangri-La, by accident in 1938; the similarities led him to believe that Hilton had in fact discovered this city himself and based his story on it.[1]
