Tibetan Experience, Shangrila 香格里拉

In the city of Shanghai-La, Yunnan province there’s a grand Tibetan monastery, Ganden Sumtseling Monastery. Also known as Songzanlin Monastery, this sacred site is a prominent Tibetan Buddhist monastery that showcases stunning traditional architecture and vibrant cultural heritage. Explore the meticulously landscaped gardens, adorned with prayer flags fluttering in the Himalayan breeze. Tickets : 70 元 , bus 🚌 up to the monastery and back 50元 Traditional attire rental + makeup + professional photographer taking pictures at the monastery : 298元 Tips: Best time to visit is April to October, however if it’s your first time traveling to Yunnan, I’d suggest you visit Lijiang, Jade Dragon Snow mountain, blue moon valley and the ancient city ( PS: check descriptions on my previous post on Lijiang) , then ask locals, preferably the host of your Homestay or Hotel, on how to get to Shangri- La , there are shared rental cars 🚘for 150元 a person, and buses for 🚌 40 元 per person. 在云南省香格里拉市,有一座宏伟的藏传佛教寺庙,甘丹松赞林寺。又称松赞林寺,这座神圣之地是一座显赫的藏传佛教寺庙,展示着令人惊叹的传统建筑和丰富的文化遗产。探索精心布置的花园,点缀着在喜马拉雅微风中飘扬的经幡。 门票:70元,往返寺庙的巴士🚌50元 传统服装租赁+化妆+在寺庙拍照的专业摄影师:298元 小贴士:最佳游览时间为四月至十月,但如果这是你首次前往云南,建议先参观丽江、玉龙雪山、蓝月谷和古城(注:请查看我在丽江的先前帖子的描述),然后向当地人,最好是你的民宿或酒店的主人询问如何前往香格里拉,有共享租车🚘每人150元和巴士🚌每人40元的选项。 #travel #localguides #historicallandmarks #tibet #yunnan #lijiang #urbanexplorer #exploresgtogether #china #shangrila
