As the exchanges between civilizations increased in recent times, a number of works emerged that reflected the author's imagination of other civilizations, such as the book Lost Horizon, which started the "Shangri-La trend". This novel focuses on the experiences of the protagonist, Conway, and his companions in the hidden location named Shangri-La, which is portrayed as a tranquil and transcendent ideal country. This paper will outline and introduce the main characters and the specific details of Shangri-La as depicted in Lost Horizon, and explore the artistic techniques employed in portraying an ideal realm in literature.
