The commanding height of Guishan Park in Dukezong Ancient City in Shangri-La has a prayer wheel, which is set in the Guinness World Record. The prayer wheel is 21 meters high and weighs 60 tons. It is the largest and heaviest platinum pure copper prayer wheel in the world. The entire prayer wheel is about 5 floors high, majestic, the barrel is pure copper gold plated, on the top of the barrel wall with relief carvings engraved Wenshu, Puxian, Guanyin, the four major bodhisattvas in the ground, the bottom is engraved with the Buddha's eight treasure map, the barrel also contains a total of 1.24 million and a variety of Buddha treasures, The total weight is about 16 tons. To turn such a huge warp, it takes more than ten people to turn at the same time. When the first time I went, four people could not turn at all. When I went to see the night scene for the second time, there were more than a dozen people, and they turned quickly together. Turning the gold tube clockwise for three weeks, you can eliminate the disaster and pray for blessings, auspicious luck.

    When I arrived, Manicha was going back. I could go back to the wind. I went up and people were turning. It's not possible for a few people. And I have to turn to No. 1, No. 3, No. 5, No. 7 ....

    The Big Buddha Temple prayer wheel is the largest prayer wheel in the world. The symbols are magnificent and atmospheric. It takes many people to turn. I also turned around and turned three times. I hope to bring good luck. Good choice. Very good.

    The stone walking road in Dukezong Ancient City is uphill. It has been going in to the high point to Guishan Park. The stone steps are the Tibetan temple of the Big Buddha Temple. The tourists are obviously interested in the oversized prayer wheel, and try to circle with the crowd. It is true that only such a huge instrument is seen here, which has become the highest point of the ancient city, and can be seen almost at any time when shopping.

    Interesting place to check out and take some pictures. It was very crowded and going up was very steep. Make sure you wear non slippery shoes. I saw someone slip down the stairs!!If you are asthmatic, take it easy.

    Very big, many people can turn around, it is worth a visit, free and open! Parking at the door is also convenient. It takes only two minutes to turn to the ancient city. In other words, turn in the square on the right hand side of the prayer wheel and go in the ancient city. Follow the gable wall. The first intersection turns left and goes uphill about 30 meters. There is a restaurant on the left. It tastes good. Compared with those so-called China on the tip of the tongue, it is much better than the good ingredients, good meat, and less chicken flavor.
