About Dunhuang
Dunhuang, an oasis town in Gansu province on the old Silk Road, is known for the Mogao Caves, desert dunes and a crescent-shaped spring.
Dunhuang lies at the western end of the Hexi Corridor in Gansu province, among Gobi desert and sand dunes, and was a stop on the Silk Road for caravans between China and Central Asia. The Mogao Caves, a World Heritage Site about 25 km south-east of the town, hold hundreds of cave temples carved into a cliff from the fourth century onwards, with painted walls and clay Buddhas.
Top-ranked sights in Dunhuang: Mogao Caves, Singing Sand Dunes (Mingsha Shan).
