漂泊一生吧
The Mogao Grottoes scenic spot is quite famous. After playing, I feel that it is not interesting. Maybe I don’t have art cells. The scenic spot does not let me take pictures. I have seen four or five caves in total. I personally feel that there is no Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang. The Crescent Spring Scenic Area is also in the primary school textbooks. I have read it, and the expectations are quite high. Not achieving the desired effect!

小两口KK
I can only say that I feel the history, and other sincere development is average. The location is also relatively remote, and I can't come without driving. They are all newly built scenes, or for the phrase "West out of Yangguan without reason", there is really no need to come

花漫熙
A spring breeze did not reach the Yumenguan, and thousands of miles came to Dunhuang and came to the Yumenguan. In fact, the viewing value is average. It takes a long time to take a tourist bus to the generous plate, so it is not recommended to bring smaller children. Since there is a general strategy before coming, there is no big expectations, and there is no disappointment. It is a learning point when you are a child!

The Great Wall of Han, also known as Foreign Minister City, is attached to the city of Saiwai. It is the Great Wall built in the early Taihe period of the Emperor Han Wu. After several years of inspection by archaeologists, it was found that the Han Dynasty built a "Foreign Minister City" from the west of Dunhuang, Gansu, to the south of Pyongyang, North Korea, and more than 10,000 kilometers long. Worth a visit

Tibetan Jingdong is the popular name of Mogao Grottoes 17. This cave was originally built in the five years (851) of Tang Xuanzong University, and was a shadow cave of the monks in Hexi at that time. Around the 11th century, Xixia ruled Dunhuang period, before the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty occupied Dunhuang, the monks of Mogao Grottoes, considering the disaster of war, so they sealed the scriptures, documents, archives and Buddha statues preserved in the temples throughout the ages, and then built a wall outside. And painted murals to hide people's ears. After the monks also fled the war difficulties, the cave was decadent, the years were deep, and the cave was silted by the wind and sand, so claustrophobic for nearly 800 years. Qingguangxu 26 years (1900), Mogao Grottoes Daoshi Wang Yuanxu, the rate of people "drain three layers of cave sand with running water", the secret room has been in the world, and it is called "Tibetan Jingdong". The Tibetan Jingdong has unearthed the largest literature in Dunhuang's legacy, especially the icing on the cake of the famous historical and cultural city. It has also become an important data from the East Han Dynasty, the Central Jing two Jin Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Western Wei Dynasty, the Liang Dynasty, the Beizhou Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the fifth Dynasty, the Northern Song Dynasty, the Xixia Dynasty, the Xixia Dynasty, and the Yuan Dynasty, covering the civilizations of each dynasty. Professor Jiang Liangfu, a Dunhuang scientist, believes that "the whole Chinese culture is manifested in the Dunhuang volume". First of all, the important value of Dunhuang's legacy is the gold stone scientist Ye Changyi of China. In "Yushi", he not only recorded the stone of Mogao Grottoes, but also made a quite unique explanation of Dunhuang's legacy. The cave has discovered tens of thousands of ancient Buddhist scriptures, Taoist scriptures and secular instruments, which are valuable documents for the development of academic culture in China for nearly two thousand years. The accumulation of history has finally become the treasure of the future generations, which is a great blessing for Chinese academics and world academics.

每日少开一天车
The Suspension Spring site is not a tourist attraction at present, and the state is carrying out the protection of the cultural heritage of the site, so it is not worth visiting for most people. People who have seen the documentary "Hexi Corridor" must be no stranger to the hanging spring. The discovery of this Han Dynasty's post site has great significance for understanding the Silk Road and the exchanges between China and the West. Thousands of years ago, I do not know why the hanging spring was abandoned, gradually obliterating in the vast history, leaving countless mysteries waiting for future generations to solve.
