Labrang Monastery|A complete guide to taking photos in Tibetan costumes in Gannan

Endure altitude sickness just to take these life photos❗️ Of course you have to go to Labrang Monastery when you come to Gannan! I started to suffer from altitude sickness as soon as I arrived at the plateau, but I still endured the discomfort and took these photos of Tibetan costumes. I really like it❤️ Labrang Monastery is a very important monastery of Tibetan Buddhism and also a Buddhist university📖 The area is very large. In addition to ticket inspection at the main gate, some monasteries also require inspection. 📷Labrang Monastery photo spot📷 ✅Super beautiful prayer wheel You can see them as soon as you enter the temple. It is said that there are more than 1,700 of them. "A World Without Thieves" was filmed here📹 ⚠️Be careful not to take pictures of monks. ✅Many temple gates The painted doors are very photogenic 👍🏻 You can take beautiful photos standing at the door. ✅White Tower There is a white pagoda in the center of the temple, which is a very important symbol of the temple. ✅Central Square It is very open and the surrounding buildings are very nice. ✨Many buildings have brick red exterior walls, which is also very photogenic📷 ⚠️No photos allowed inside the temple🤳🏻, do not step on the threshold ⛰️Climb up to the Buddha drying platform on the mountain opposite the Gongtang Pagoda, and you can see the panoramic view of the entire Labrang Monastery⛰️ 📌Trip Moments guide📌 1️⃣There are many Trip Moments stores in front of Labrang Monastery and in the tourist center, so you can compare prices. 2️⃣ Renting clothes, makeup and taking photos can be chosen separately. It is recommended to rent clothes + makeup and take photos by yourself, which will give you more time. 💰Rent clothes and put on makeup about 200 meters away. 3️⃣ Both Labrang Monastery and Langmusi have many trip moments, but Labrang Monastery is relatively more photogenic, and Langmusi is more spectacular. While taking photos, let’s also take a look at the treasures of Labrang Monastery💎 ✨Labrang Monastery was built in 1709 and is one of the six major monasteries of the Gelugpa sect. ✨There are six major colleges, which can be called the "Tsinghua" of Tibetan Buddhism ✨The Lion's Roar Buddha Hall has a plaque bestowed by Emperor Jiaqing, the murals in the Great Golden Tile Hall are very precious, and the Labrang Monastery Museum has a butter flower hall and a cultural relics hall. 🔍Labrang Monastery 📍Labrang Monastery, Xiahe County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture 🎫40💰
