The museum has six exhibition halls divided into 13 units, featuring historical relics of Dunhuang and precious cultural relics in Mogao Grottoes. There are many authentic documents unearthed from the Mogao Grottoes through the caves.

Open from 9am to 6.30pm every Tuesday to Sunday (winter time may be adjusted), closed on Mondays. It takes about 2 hours to visit. Overall, Dunhuang Museum is a great place to learn about Dunhuang history and Mogao Grottoes art, worth a visit

看莫高窟，不是看死了一千年的标本，而是看活了一千年的生命，窟内壁画人像栩栩如生，唯一遗憾的就是不能摄像记录下来。

来敦煌的第一天，先去逛了博物馆，讲解员刘晓英女士讲解非常细致，对本地文化和历史很熟悉，而且有互动。比自己看有意思多了。而且还给我介绍了一些本地的特色，特产。非常赞！

记住，出了敦煌博物馆的时候如果打的，不要信出租车司机说附近有个前年古寺白马塔寺，然后他们会带你过去，白马塔是真的，其他都是假的，切记里面还有骗子，从出租车司机到免费解说，最后带你们去小房间内让大师开示，然后被骗钱，一路把你们安排的明明白白。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

约到了吕小媛老师的讲解，老师讲解的非常细致，声音温柔，专业知识很强，给我们把历史的时间线也拉了一遍，其中有很多问题也请教了老师，都做了一一的解答！明天会再去敦煌莫高窟去再做一个历史的补充！！

专业讲解敦煌历史，加上敦煌市区一游，深入学习了敦煌的前生今世！
