To the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes is undoubtedly the preferred goal.
Mogao Caves 25 km away from the urban area. No lighting inside the cave than the black. Because the Mogao Grottoes face east, so the morning to visit the best, of course, also need flashlights. To the Mogao Grottoes know many people here, the huge parking lot has been stopped full, large and small cars a 200, their voices as if the market. Could see the car park opposite the ridge on the distribution of the large size of the caves, through a tall poplar, can see a sign of the Mogao Grottoes - nine-story floor.
Keep the camera and bag, scrape together about 30 people, was assigned a guide and began to visit.
Mogao Cave has more than 400 large and small, are said to have tens of thousands of pieces of cultural relics. But it would only open more than 40 caves, tour guides and tourists more than 10 each with only cave tour. We are most caves began to be brought on the 17th, that is, in the late Qing Wang, Yuan Taoist Hubei Macheng found Cangjing Dong recorded. The tourists will visit the Mogao Grottoes 11 is so much Cangjing Dong is most concerned about the goal we all wanted to see if it had tens of thousands of national treasures hidden in this little cave looks like the original, so visitors almost accumulated in this Cangjing Dong ago, Ying-Ying Chong Chong, very frightening. Hole in my head at the crowd rush the torch light in the confused looked a bit rough inside, I could only see inside a micro-block is the old monk breasted statue of the Tang Dynasty when Buddhism is said to make a significant contribution to Hong surname monk, but I do not understand. No culture, alas, really terrible.
As the crowd marched in careful steps, it's also always followed by tour guides (otherwise inaudible words), we have seen several dynasties represented significant caves. Then it was found out this is really a great treasure-house of the Mogao Grottoes. Do not look thin, try to figure out, is simply impossible to understand cursory Dunhuang culture. Unfortunately, we have a noisy crowd of people shouted and even the sound of children crying only cursory, so we look at the Mogao Grottoes is read only "superficial." Non unwilling to Seoul, is unable to carry on. Unfortunately, it is regrettable!
However, even so, the Mogao Grottoes is still shocked me.
That sculpture: the aging Ananda a miserable expression, face thin, clearly could see the old man spots; young Kasyapa was a lively appearance, angular, passing breath of youth; Buddha sitting the middle, miraculous awe-inspiring inviolable;
That mural: heaven or ethereal, or clumsy appearance, or the inspection of the Ku Ding, or elegant in the four weeks to fulfill a fantasy of duty; been changed in a limited space painted with Buddhist teaching me the story of probation such as Everyman uncultivated rough people;
And so on ... ... I can not go on. Economic and social living in the materialistic, my brain has been the community slowly eroded the stench of spiritual things can only occupy temporary space for my brain. But at that time I was overawed and truly a surge of spiritual force complete control of me, so I can not get rid of. Now I also remember the strength caught the spirit, I seem to have returned thousands of miles away in space, several thousand of the time. I can not think of, I do not want to under mind control! Let me return to my need to survive in space and time bar! Let me fall bar!
Where the loess is not buried people, he has made reasonable, next to the Gobi where Mingsha far and near, sparsely distributed, large and small grave. Dunhuang air is dry, though here is a desert area where there is an oasis for thousands of years. The driver said that if uncovered the graves here, there are a lot of mummy, I believe the driver much better than this mean mummy, Egypt, much better than this, he was loving home. This piece of the tomb of the market is truly yours, but not overcast deep. Our goal is to Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Moon Spring. We will visit this millennium couples.
Mingsha more than 1000 meters above sea level is actually only 23 of the 100 meters high and 2 km horizontal layers, Wan anchovy vertical winds 45 km. Workaday are in the sun gently sloping hillsides and blade-like ridge, all those who have seen the pictures on the Mingsha faithfully reflects the real, reflecting the classic, all I can so to say. Do not thin the search path, there is no attention to Crescent Moon Spring and not far from where we did not note that there is climbing wooden ladder next to the Crescent Moon, we chose the nearest one sand hill to climb, we really could not help but want to quickly barefoot into the excitement that soft spun yarn. Is indeed a very fine sand, the surface is hot sun, feet stuck to the inner layer is distinct feel of coolness, makes you unique sense of accomplishment in the desert you find a water source. We are happy with the mountains in the sand, or crawling, or running, or wrestling or rest, and even in the midst of sand hills, the lovely back-yang side, Mr. passionate Heysandy.J with their own two feet and has written a great "LOVE , "brought to our attention acclaim and pedestrians. Joy is so generated, is our own manufacture. In the ridge from near or afar to watch this lake, think her heart is always wonderful. In a surprise, in the desert surrounded by such a small lake, went so far as to contend with the ravages of the desert. I would prefer to imagine that this is the power of love. Mingsha my eyes like a rough masculine temper of men, while the Crescent Moon Spring is a petite soft, pleasant woman, and the two love each other, to accompany Aioi, this is their world. Do not know whether they will protect us left behind a huge word LOVE as their proud declaration.
Sunset, happy people in Mountain. For an instant brilliant sunset, we are waiting there. "The green is still there, How Many Suns," Could it be relieved against the sunset in the Castle Peak is the red? Here there are only sand mountain, the sun sets the pace of a hurry, when the pace as we work, but why in that bright when it is yellow? Resentment had watched the afternoon sun exposure that we were leaving the last hint of bright yellow quickly hidden into the mountains, after God has told see a visitor, and we had to regret the departure.
In fact, there are programs, sand-boarding, camels and so on. I do not have sand-boarding, with a bamboo skateboards made from 45-degree angle down a slippery slope, I do not like it can not, of course, I did not hear the voice of sand-ming. I really no match for the temptation of a camel, camel foot of the mountain there are dozens of peaks in the gentle toward us. Miss the Maiyi accompanied the antics of emotion accompanied by camels, I soaked the sand slowly with the departure of this wonderful place.
