#chinatravel Songzanlin Monastery. Sitting up in the mountains near Shangri La, the monastery looks like something out of a painting with its golden roofs and peaceful surroundings. The walk up is quiet, and when you get to the top, the views are just amazing.
The monastery itself feels really special. There are colorful murals, prayer flags waving in the breeze, and monks going about their day. It is super chill and kind of humbling in the best way. You do not need to know much about Tibetan Buddhism to appreciate the peaceful vibe.
It is the kind of place where you just slow down, breathe in the mountain air, and enjoy the silence. Exploring Songzanlin Monastery is a great way to connect with nature, culture, and a slower rhythm of life. It is definitely a highlight of the area.
