1. Mogao Grottoes Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are the general names of Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, Gansu Province and the West Thousand Buddha Cave. They are one of the four largest grottoes in China, and the largest and best-preserved treasure house of Buddhist art in the world. The Mogao Grottoes are located 25 kilometers southeast of Dunhuang City, and are dug on the cliff at the eastern foot of Mingsha Mountain. In the second year of Qin and Fujian (AD 366), Mensa believers came here. Seeing the glittering golden light and the Thousand Buddha Cave on Mingsha Mountain, I had a heart and built it continuously, becoming a Buddhist holy place, named Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as Thousand Buddha Cave. China Grottoes originated in India. The traditional grottoes in India are dominated by stones, while the sculptures in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are mainly clay murals because rocks are not suitable for carving. Generally, the whole cave used to be round plastic, but later it gradually faded into high plastic, shadow plastic and wall plastic. Finally, with the mural as the background, the modeling and painting art are integrated. There are more than a thousand caves in the Mogao Grottoes in the Tang Dynasty, and there are 492 existing caves, including Wei 32, Sui 1 10, Tang 247, Five Dynasties 36, Song 45 and Yuan 8.

When climbing a mountain, I only feel that the sand under my feet will make a sound. Although I am shallow, I still take a step back. Climbing the mountain is extremely difficult, but I still find it interesting. I climbed to the top of the mountain with all my strength. At this time, I felt a strong wind with fine sand coming towards my body, singing in my ears, leaving footprints that soon disappeared. It is said that a gust of wind blew, and the gravel falling from the top of the mountain fell with the human body, and the sand mountain made a loud noise. On weekdays, the breeze blows like string bamboo, hence the name Mingsha Mountain. The sunset scenery of Mingsha Mountain is even more intoxicating and should not be missed. The crescent moon is about 300 meters long and 50 meters wide, surrounding Mingsha Mountain. The poplars by the spring are graceful, and the fish in the spring swim leisurely. The spring water is light blue, clear and soft, delicious and sweet. Named after the water is like a crescent moon. Crescent Moon Spring, a dreamlike mystery.

Mingsha Mountain In China, there are many tourist attractions called Mingsha Mountain, among which Dunhuang Mingsha Mountain is the most representative and widely known for its long history and culture, so it is introduced separately. "God's preaching is different from sand, and cold is also heard. The situation is in doubt and turned upside down. Yin is like a mine, the wind is still sharp, and the human umbilical blade is uneven. " This vivid chanting poem is a description of the wonders of Mingsha Mountain in Dunhuang by poets in the Tang Dynasty. Mingsha Mountain has attracted people with its vivid natural wonders since ancient times. In the Western Han Dynasty, it was recorded that Mingsha Mountain played bells, drums and orchestral music.

As early as BC 12 1 year, the Western Han Dynasty established Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang counties in the Hexi Corridor, and at the same time established Yangguan and Yumenguan to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu and manage the western regions. Since then, as the gateway to the western regions, Yangguan is the only place where the South Road of the Silk Road passes, and its strategic position is extremely important. Since the Western Han Dynasty, many dynasties have taken this place as a military stronghold and sent troops to guard it. Xuanzang became a monk, took the South Silk Road from India, went east to Yangguan, and returned to Chang 'an and China. Cen Can, a frontier poet, once wrote the poem "Two years of official business, two years of sunshine". After the Song Dynasty, the quicksand from Bailongdui swallowed up, forcing people to retreat eastward, and Yangguan was buried in the ruthless desert. Today, the former Yangguan City has long since disappeared, and the only sight-a beacon tower on Dundun Mountain still stands proudly. 7.

Because the story of Dunhuang took place in the Song Dynasty, all the scenery in the city was built according to the style of the Song Dynasty, so it was called Dunhuang Ancient City or Shazhou City, and the locals referred to it as Dunhuang Film City or Dunhuang Ancient City for short. After the film was finished, the ancient city was handed over to the local area for protection and utilization, and became a film and television shooting base in western China, adding a new tourist attraction to Dunhuang.

According to historical records, in the third year of Liang Wudi's Yuan Shou (BC 120), there was a small official named a profiteer in Xinye, Nanyang, Henan. His crime was punished and he was exiled here to settle down and raise horses. When he released his horse, he saw a group of wild horses coming to Wowachi to drink water every evening. One day, he found a unique good horse among the wild horses. This horse is very tall, with extraordinary bones and purple fur. It runs like a raging fire. Often profiteering, knowing that Liang Wudi loves BMW, he designed and captured it and dedicated it to Liang Wudi. In order to make the horse mysterious and weird, I lied that it flew out of the pool.

Hamming Great Wall
The Great Wall of Han Dynasty was called "plug" in Han Dynasty. Ding Yuan, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, built a frontier project from the west of the Yellow River to Jiuquan in the sixth year (before11). Starting from the junction of Yongchang and Shandan, it passes through Xiakou Valley to the north of Jinshanzi, passes through Duanyao, Xinhe, Sanlibao and Shilibao to the northwest, passes through Shandan City for 2 kilometers, passes through the north edge of the city, Shi Hao, Beiwan, Jing 'an and Xiaozhai, reaches Xitun North, crosses the cave ditch and enters Ganzhou District. Where the Great Wall passes through Pingchuan and Gobi, it is generally composed of trenches and ridges (beacon towers are built on the south side and ridges, and beacon towers are connected with pavilions and barriers). The existing trench in Shandan is 59.95 kilometers long, 0.8 ~ 3 meters deep and 5 ~ 8 meters wide. There are ridges in the ditch, which are like soil ridges. The beacon tower is built on the ridge with an interval of about 1.25 km. Most of the obstacles are connected with the beacon tower on the ridge, with an area of about 100 square meter, and there are 3 existing obstacles. About 4 kilometers east of Shandan Xiakou Valley, because the mountain is blocked by rivers, there are no trenches and walls.
The Great Wall in Ming Dynasty was called the side wall. It is composed of walls, piers and barriers made of loess or yellow sand, and the rammed soil layer is 15cm ~ 20cm thick. The wall base is about 4 meters wide and 5 meters high. There is a beacon tower on the Great Wall. The pier bottom is 8m to12m in length and below12m in height. The south side of the pier is flush with the wall, and the north side is prominent. There is no path ahead, so climb with a rope ladder. The wall has a patrol rail, which is about 1m ~ 1.5 m wide, and the skirt wall is built on the north edge of the wall top, which is about 1.5m high ... When building the Great Wall, anyone passing through the city or fortress will leave a secret door (that is, the city gate hole, and a watchtower will be built outside the door). The direction of the Ming Great Wall is basically the same as that of the Han Great Wall. The Great Wall of Ming Dynasty was built in Qin Long from the middle of Jiajing to the early Wanli period (1573- 16 19), which lasted about forty years.
