Shangri-la
December 22, 2014 § 3 Comments
Located in Vancouver, BC, the Shangri-la is the tallest building in the city, although you wouldn’t know it from the below photo where it seems dwarfed by two other structures.
The bottom 15 floors are a hotel and the upper 47 floors are some of the most expensive condos you can buy in BC.
At its base grows bamboo.
The Vancouver Art Gallery also displays some works outside the Shangri-li. Next is another shot looking up from inside one of the pieces erected by the Gallery.
Here’s a shot inside the wooden structure.
And here’s another work placed outside the Shangri-la some years ago. This one was done by artist Ken Lum.
And a shot of winter in Shangri-la where the Japanese Maples survive amid the pond.
That’s all for now!

Very nice shots. It’s nice to see that luxury hotels at most times are located in stunning buildings 🙂
Thank you. Yes. The Shangri-la is quite the building. I watched its construction from my office window from when they dug the foundation to its top finish, though by then I had to lean against the window and strain to look up.
It’s very nice to see that you had the chance to follow the complete process of building. That makes taking shots of the finished building even more amazing!
