To truly enjoy this place, we decided to come early to avoid the crowds. Opted out for the bus option, and we're glad we did as there was some roadworks and it was hard to spot the plank walk at first.
Once we arrived, we were amazed by the magnificence and beauty of the the temples. The size of the buildings make you feel small. It's really colourful, and the smell of burning incense guides you through your spiritual journey.
Go through all the temples to pray, get a blessing from a monk, enjoy the spiritual atmosphere, and marvel at the beauty of the temples.
Discover a part of Tibetan culture in Yunnan.
💰Average Price per Person: 55rmb/person without the bus, 75rmb/person with the bus.
🗓️Itinerary Scheduling: half a day, enjoyed walking back instead of taking the bus as it offered beautiful views over the monastery
💞Reasons to Recommend: magnificent, spirituality, architecture
