Songzanlin Monastery is also known as 'the little Potala Palace '. In 1679, Dalai Lama chose this place by divination, and it went on to become the uppermost public place in Yunnan which features the particular local characteristics.
Annually, the Gedong Festival is celebrated here by the Tibetans. Pious believers, with their knees and foreheads knocking the ground at every step, come here to pray.
The monastery is full of treasures. There are a lot of golden figures of Buddha josses, golden lamps, Tibetan lections, silver censers and so on. All of these are wonderful collections accumulated from each dynasty. They are precious productions made by people of both Tibet nationality and Han nationality.
