I've never seen a place with a name as romantic as Dukezong Ancient Town.

How can you travel to Yunnan without visiting Shangri-La? And if you go to Shangri-La, you must visit Dukezong Ancient Town! The name of Dukezong Ancient Town means "Moonlight City" in Tibetan. I've never seen a place with a name as romantic as Dukezong Ancient Town. Dukezong Ancient Town is located in Shangri-La, an ancient town on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Together with "Niwangzong," it is known as the "Sun and Moon in the Heart." Just hearing the name makes you yearn for it. Only after visiting it will you understand why it is called Moonlight City. In the middle of Dukezong Ancient Town, there is a Moonlight Square with a white pagoda, as if silently telling the ancient legend of moonlight. There is also a prayer wheel on the mountain, several stories high, which requires people to form a circle to turn it. Dukezong Ancient Town shines brightly under the night sky, with the prayer wheel as a backdrop.
