Ganden Sumtseling Monastery’s Golden Glow

#chinatravel Visiting Ganden Sumtseling Monastery in Shangri-La felt spiritually humbling. Perched in the mountains, it gleamed golden in the afternoon sun. The Tibetan prayer flags fluttered in the breeze, and monks welcomed visitors with calm smiles. I learned a bit about the monastery’s history from a young monk who shared stories in broken Mandarin and big gestures. The chants echoing in the halls gave me goosebumps. #tibetanvibes #shangrila #buddhistmonastery
