Shangri-La | A place lacking in oxygen but not lacking in faith

|A place lacking in oxygen but not lacking in faith. Songzanlin Monastery, located in Shangri-La, is a holy place of Tibetan Buddhism and is known as the "Little Potala Palace". Here, the prayer wheels turn slowly and the Buddha statues are silent and solemn, making people feel tranquility and harmony. The temple's architecture is glittering with gold, contrasting with the surrounding natural landscape, forming a beautiful picture of Dukezong Ancient City. Songzanlin Temple is not only a source of faith, but also a treasure house of culture. Visitors can appreciate the profound heritage of Tibetan Buddhism here and also experience the local customs and culture. Whether it is the morning sunshine or the big prayer flags in the winter snow scene, Songzanlin Temple exudes a unique charm, attracting countless believers and tourists to worship and visit Yunlanli Banshan B&B (Dukezong Ancient City Big Buddha Temple Branch).
