Timeless Trails: Discovering Dukezong Ancient City

#holidayitinerary

Dukezong Ancient City in Shangri-La is a hidden gem steeped in Tibetan heritage and quiet charm. As I wandered its cobbled lanes, prayer flags fluttered overhead and golden-roofed buildings glowed in the mountain light. Locals greeted me with warm smiles, and the scent of incense lingered in the air. I climbed Guishan Hill to spin the giant prayer wheel—an experience both humbling and uplifting. Despite its age, the city feels alive, with vibrant markets, peaceful temples, and stories etched into every stone. It’s a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect with something ancient yet enduring. Dukezong isn’t just a visit—it’s a journey into the soul of Shangri-La.
