Around 9:00 AM, depart from downtown Dunhuang to Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring. This is a pearl in the desert, surrounded by sand dunes with clear spring water, forming a unique natural wonder. You can choose to ride a camel or hike up the dunes to experience the majesty and tranquility of the desert. Crescent Spring, like a crescent moon, lies quietly between the sand dunes, which is breathtaking. Afterward, you can experience riding a camel through the dunes, feeling the vastness and magic of the desert. The camel team moves slowly forward, the sand dunes undulate, and the sunlight shines on the golden sand grains, as if you are in a magnificent picture. Next, head to the Mogao Grottoes.
