The Sun and Moon in My Heart | Dukezong Ancient Town | Shangri-La

Most visitors to Shangri-La will choose to visit Dukezong Ancient Town. This is because it is home to one of the best-preserved and largest Tibetan residential areas in China, with a unique architectural style. It was once a key town on the Ancient Tea-Horse Road and the first stop for horse caravans entering Tibet, with a long history and profound cultural heritage. The town's Turtle Hill Park is home to the world's largest prayer wheel, with scriptures and patterns carved on the golden wheel, symbolizing auspiciousness and beauty. When night falls, the town becomes a sea of joy. People hold hands and form a large circle. Locals and tourists, both familiar and unfamiliar, gather together to sing and dance, performing Tibetan songs and dances in the square, feeling the lively and unique atmosphere, and experiencing the unique romance of the "Moonlight City". The ancient town is really good for strolling around, and every small street and alley is very picturesque. Have you been there yet?
