There is a similar concept in Tibet of mystical land of Shambhala (also spelled Shambala or Shamballa). It is a mystical kingdom hidden somewhere beyond the snowpeaks of the Himalayas. It is mentioned in various ancient texts, including the Kalachakra Tantra and the ancient texts of the Zhang Zhung culture which pre-dated Tibetan Buddhism in western Tibet. It is also the land of enlightened or the pure land. The Kalachakra tantra was taught by Shakyamuni Gautam Buddha.
The Bön scriptures speak of a closely-related land called Olmolungring.
