位於雲南省迪慶藏族自治州香格里拉縣的獨克宗古城，建於唐朝、擁有一千三百多年歷史、是中國保存最好、最大的藏民居群。它是茶馬古道的樞紐，亦是滇藏公路的必經之地。“獨克宗”藏語為“月光城”之意。可惜，在2014年1月11日的一場火災，毀了這古城三分之二的建築，也毀了它的歷史文化價值。雖然師傅和導遊都不推薦去參觀這“廢墟”，我們還是趁著回到酒店的時間還早，打的到月光廣場，逛逛獨克宗古城，也圓了大妹和藏獒合照的心願。
Dukezong, or Dorkhar, is a Tibetan town in Shangri-la County, Deqen Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan province, China, with more than thirteen hundred years history. It’s a main city where the ancient Tea-Horse Road and the China National Highway 214 (G214) pass. At January 11th of 2014, a fire broke out destroying 2/3 of this city, and cause a huge lost of its historical and cultural value. As we could arrive Shangri-La early in the afternoon, we decided to take a taxi to visit this lost city. Meanwhile, Jessie made her dream come true to have some pictures with a Tibetan mastiff.
