What travelers say:
Looking at the Mogao Grottoes, not to see the specimens that have died for a thousand years, but to see the life of a thousand years, the mural portraits in the cave are lifelike, the only regret is that they cannot be recorded by camera.

On the first day of coming to Dunhuang, I went to the museum first. The interpreter, Ms. Liu Xiaoying, explained very carefully, was familiar with local culture and history, and had interactions. It's much more interesting than watching it yourself. And also introduced me to some local characteristics and specialties. Great!
I am very fortunate to upgrade the classic explanation to slow enjoyment. Teacher Wang Xingyan showed the evolution of Dunhuang millennium one by one in his patient, meticulous and professional explanation for two and a half hours. Thank you again for Mr. Wang's wonderful explanation!
Remember, if you call when you leave the Dunhuang Museum, don’t believe the taxi driver said that there is an ancient temple Baima Pagoda Temple nearby, and then they will take you there. The Baima Pagoda is real, and the others are fake. Remember that there are liars in it, from taxi drivers to free explanations, Finally, take you to the small room to let the master open the show, and then be cheated of money, and make your arrangements clear all the way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I made an appointment to the explanation of Mr. Lu Xiaoxuan. The teacher explained it very carefully, the voice was gentle, and the expertise was very strong. We also pulled the historical timeline again. There were many questions and asked the teacher, and they all answered one by one! Tomorrow I will go to Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes to make another historical supplement! !
The tour guide, Mr. Liu Xiaoying, has extensive expertise and enthusiastically and patiently explained the history and culture of the attractions to us, making us more aware of the museum. And always pay attention to our safety and comfort in the explanation, eagerly answer our questions and provide many useful travel advice. The most important thing is to extend the explanation service for us for free. It was originally 1.5 hour, but it was added to 3 hours in the end. Thank you so much. It is also a hard tour guide.
