Hello, I am Master Jiang. Yumen Pass was first placed when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened the road to the Western Regions and established the four counties of Hexi. It was named because jade was imported from the Western Regions.

During the Han Dynasty, it was the gateway to all parts of the Western Regions, and its former site was in today's small Fangpan City in the northwest of Dunhuang, Gansu Province.

It is the administrative center of the Duwei and an important place for garrisoning troops.

It was an important military pass and Silk Road transportation artery during the Han Dynasty.

Yumen Pass is 95 kilometers away from the urban area of ??Dunhuang. It is now a ruins. It is surrounded by the endless Gobi desert. There are no restaurants. Only in the Yadan Landform can you find restaurants or eat in the urban area of ??Dunhuang.
