It is said that you must go to Tibet once in your life, but since I went to Shangri-La, I feel that this place is also a paradise on earth, and it's worth a visit.
When I came back from Tibet at the beginning of April this year, I made a plan to go to Shangri-La, and went to this mysterious place from Lijiang in the middle of April. Although it was already spring, Shangri-La was still very cold, and I had to wear a sweater and a large coat to withstand this bitter cold. I stayed near the old town, pushing open the window of the inn to see the white snowy mountains in the distance, at the foot of the snowy mountains is still yellow grass, with leisurely sheep and yaks grazing on it. I live in the place are big mountains, rarely seen a flat grassland, extremely favorite.
Shangri-La is known as Little Tibet, and its altitude is around 3,000 meters, but probably because I have been living in the plateau area, my body did not appear to have any symptoms of discomfort, really lucky. Shangri-La's ancient city there is the world's largest drum , at least six or seven adults to turn. I've experienced it a few times before when I've been there, and it's really fun for everyone to push the golden cylinder with a single push.
In the evening, when you sneak around the old city, there will be a lot of ethnic minorities dancing in the square unique to their ethnicity, and you can dance along with them, being in the middle of it, it seems like what worries are all forgotten. There is also the Songzanlin Monastery on the outskirts of the city, which makes people feel extraordinarily at ease. In Shangri-La is the first time I have seen so low clouds, as if within reach.
This place makes me feel full of goodwill and allows me to be quiet and completely relaxed, which I really like.
