In the ancient town of Dukezong, near the place closest to heaven, the world's largest prayer wheel is spun

Only after arriving in Shangri-La, which is known to be the closest place to heaven, did I truly feel the sensation of being able to touch the clouds with my hands. The weather is always unpredictable; one moment it's clear, and the next, a shower begins to fall. I've visited many ancient towns and cities throughout my life, but this is my first encounter with an ancient city in the Tibetan area. It's different, truly different; the culture and scenery here have completely refreshed my understanding.
