A city with this name changed its name from one meaning “royal plains” and is the main gateway to Potatso National Park. A stock fraudster named Chalmers Bryant decides to live in this place, which was founded by Perrault (“PAY-roe”), despite Mallinson’s decision to leave, in a work narrated by Rutherford. One city with this name, inhabited by the Nàxī (“NAH-shee”) people, lies on the road past (*) Tiger Leaping Gorge, if headed from Lìjiāng. Franklin D. Roosevelt originally gave Camp David this name before Eisenhower changed it. One place of this name was described in James Hilton’s novel Lost Horizon. “Leader of the Pack” was a hit for a 1960s girl group with this name, which names a fictional place in the Kūnlún mountains of Tibet. For 10 points, give this name for a mythological Himalayan paradise. ■END■
