🔑 In addition to being over 3,300 meters above sea level, you also have to climb nearly 200 steps to reach the main hall of the temple.

“Songzanlin Monastery” requires physical and mental strength, along with the power of faith. 🚶♂️

This is the largest Tibetan monastery in Yunnan Province. It's nicknamed the “Potala Palace of Shangri-La” for its magnificent architecture and stunning views of the snow-capped mountains.

✨ Highlights:

• The golden and red temple structure contrasts cinematically with the sky.
• An iconic photo spot, reflecting the temple's reflection in Lamul Lake.
• The chanting of monks is incredibly calming.
• The simple yet powerful attire and lifestyle of local Tibetans.

📸 Tips:

• Arrive early for a better view and less crowds.
• Bring oxygen cans to avoid fatigue, dizziness, and altitude sickness.
• Wearing earth-toned clothing will contrast beautifully with the temple walls.
• The temple is large and high up, so it's best to take photos of the reflection from the lakeside for postcard-like shots.
