In April, the writer visits Shangri-La, a highland city in China's Yunnan Province, known for its Tibetan culture and tranquility. Arriving in the chilly and calm environment, the writer experiences the slow, harmonious lifestyle of the locals. This trip contrasts sharply with the fast-paced life back in Seoul, offering a unique cultural and reflective experience. The serene landscape, traditional dances, and local cuisine, including yak milk and Tibetan dumplings, envelop the visitor in an idyllic atmosphere where time moves gently. A visit to the vast Napa Lake and joining the local community dance highlight the sense of unity and slow living in Shangri-La, sparking reflections on the divided and hurried life often found in Seoul.
