Mogao Grottoes Each grotto in the Mogao Grottoes is like a window peering into a thousand years. The flying Apsaras on the murals are still dancing, and the Buddhas still lower their gaze. Gliding past the mottled colors, it feels as if you are touching the warmth of sixteen hundred years ago.

Good to know

All itinerary arrangements are subject to the confirmed tour notice and formal travel contract signed by both parties!
Due to the real-name reservation system for Mogao Grottoes tickets, and the limited number of Class A and Class B (emergency) tickets available daily, it is necessary to book one month in advance during peak season. After placing an order, customer service will provide 1-on-1 guidance for purchasing tickets.
Explanations at some scenic spots are provided by dedicated staff and only include Chinese language service (Mogao Grottoes and Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring scenic areas can provide English explanation services). The itinerary includes a Chinese driver who also serves as a guide, and can provide a translator (free) or English explanation service (requires paid upgrade). Please inform our customer service of your needs in advance.
Sun protection essentials: sunglasses + sun hat + SPF50 + sunscreen, as Mingsha Mountain's strong sun can easily cause skin peeling.
Wear non-slip shoes; they are stable for walking on sand in the desert and around Crescent Spring.
If you have a sensitive stomach, bring stomach medicine. Apricot peel tea is delicious, but don't drink it cold on an empty stomach.
