Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring | You must visit this special desert for taking amazing photos ❗️

Chengdu self-driving to Dunhuang. ✨Mingsha Mountain To the east of the Mingsha Mountain is the Sanwei Mountain, to the south is the Heishi Peak Mountain, and to the west is the Gobi and Kumtag Desert. The west wind and north wind, carrying more sand, are blocked by the mountain here, causing the sand particles in the wind to settle down over time, forming the Mingsha Mountain. Under the influence of the wind, the Mingsha Mountain "remains unchanged after a night of wind, with its tracks still visible", always maintaining a certain height and shape. For thousands of years, the Mingsha Mountain still stands tall, and the sound of sand still echoes in the ears. The Qingming Shangming of the Sand Ridge is one of the eight scenic spots in Dunhuang. Dunhuang, formerly known as Shazhou, was named after this place. ✨Crescent Spring Crescent Spring is a clear spring nestled in the Mingsha Mountain, shaped like a dark moon, hence the name "Crescent Spring". Crescent Spring was formed under the internal and external dynamic conditions of tectonic movement, flowing water, and wind geological effects in loose geological structures, low-lying terrain, and regional high groundwater levels. Despite the changing of stars and the howling of wind and sand, Crescent Spring still shines like a bright mirror with its clear blue water. The coexistence of sand and water, and the interdependence of mountain springs have created the world wonder of "the first spring in the desert". 1⃣For leisure travel, you can follow this route: Mingyue Square Archway - Camel Riding - East Peak of Mingsha Mountain - Tiebeiyu Park - Crescent Spring. 2️⃣Learn about the stories and legends of Couple Willow and Medicine King Temple Site. 3⃣Inside Yuege, you can take a photo with the popular coffee and the latte art is quite unique. 4️⃣The sun is strong, make sure to protect yourself from sunburn.
