Travel Notes|Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes

At the foot of the Qilian Mountains in the northwest of the border, amid the vast sandstorms of the Gobi Desert, stands the world-famous grotto - Dunhuang Thousand Buddha Cave. There are more than a thousand grottoes stretching for two kilometers. They are the result of the painstaking efforts and unremitting efforts of craftsmen of all dynasties. This shining treasure in the world is thrilling and fascinating...

Since it was a Category B emergency ticket, I visited four caves in total, the Nine-Story Pagoda in Cave No. 90, the Gongde Cave No. 100, the Nirvana Cave No. 138, and the Guanyin Sending Son in Cave No. 148. Dunhuang learning is profound and profound, so I dare not speak 😳, but if you believe If you like Buddhism, please come here, because there is a huge amount of Buddhist content here; if you study art, please come here, because this is the gallery of the world; if you like history, please come here, because there are traces of past dynasties here; if you... If you don’t like it, then you should come because you will be moved here!

I like poplar trees very much. This is a poplar painting in the Mogao Grottoes Exhibition Hall Museum! Nice

The general picture of Mogao Grottoes pays tribute to the previous curators of Mogao Grottoes (especially the first three). Here is their youth!

The Dunhuang Museum is like a grotto, very unique, and there is a replica of the classic cave No. 45 inside.

Look at Shaanxi for three thousand years of history, look at Shanxi for five thousand years of history, and look at Gansu for eight thousand years of history! Dadiwan, Tianshui, Gansu!

Needless to say, the horse on the right is trampling on the flying swallows; the ancient elephant on the Yellow River on the left, you may have an impression of the primary school texts of the post-80s generation😄

Fuxi Temple in Tianshui, Gansu Province, the head of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, where Fuxi became the Eight Diagrams, the origin of Chinese civilization, don't you come and take a look?

The thousand-year-old arborvitae in Fuxi Temple still stands

Maijishan Grottoes, one of the four major grottoes, is your only way to visit the four major grottoes!

The first grotto I have seen in my life, and also the grotto I have seen the most times😁

Mapao Spring PARK, Tianshui Mountain and beautiful green water are known as the "Little Jiangnan", with four distinct seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and a pleasant climate.
