Dukezong Ancient City in the night. Dukezong Ancient City is located in the center of Shangri-La, founded more than 1300 years ago in the Tang Dynasty, when Diqing belonged to the Tubu Dynasty dependency, in the big turtle mountain base stone for the city, the name is Dukezong, it contains two meanings, one is built on the stone castle, the second is the moonlight city. This is an ancient city known as the "Dukezong" by Tibetans, and it was built according to the ideal country of Shambhala in the Buddhist scriptures. The ancient city was built on the hillside, and the road was uneven. It was some old stones paved with natural terrain for a long time. There were still deep horseshoe marks on the stone road. It was a message left by the horse gang for time. Dukezong is an important market town on the ancient tea horse road in the past, and the first stop after the horse helped into Tibet. Dukezong ancient city has a unique style of Tibetan people, with the world's largest pure copper-plated gilded prayer wheel. In "The Vanished Horizon", once described it like this, last night there was a dream, far away and ancient. Dreaming of solemn ancestral, devout monks, simple villagers, dreaming of the ancient village with bright lights between thousands of mountains and snow, dreaming of the horse gang from afar to repair it, the horseshoes are light and crisp, the bells are light. Unfortunately, a fire on January 11, 2014, burned two-thirds of the ancient city of Dukezong (the last two photos are the fire point at the time), so now the Dukezong is the look of the reconstruction after 2016.

A fire on January 11, 2014 burned two-thirds of the ancient city of Dukezong, so now I see Dukezong is the appearance of the reconstruction after 2016. We look for the third that was fortunate to have been preserved, is Jinlong Street, located on the southwest side of Guishan Park in the ancient city of Dukezong, which was listed as the "Jinlong Street Ancient Building Complex" in 2016. Entering this street, antique, the stone road still has a deep horseshoe mark, that is the horse gang left for time of the time. Looking at the ancient buildings that survived the old house of Yim, I felt the style of the ancient town of the tea horse road. The last photo is the fire point of the year.
