The five temple grottoes are part of Dunhuang Grottoes. Located 20 kilometers northwest of Subei County, 90 kilometers away from Dunhuang, it is one of the small grottoes outside Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. The grottoes are suspended at the waist of the cliff wall, about 12~15 meters from the ground. The caves are from the Northern Wei to the Northern Song Dynasty. The caves dug on the shore have 19 caves, only the five caves in the middle can be visited, so the name is "five temples"...

    The five temple grottoes are one of the small and medium-sized grottoes in the outer periphery of the ancient melon and sand areas (now Guazhou and Dunhuang areas) centered on the cliffs of the west bank of the Danghe River, about 100 kilometers south of the Zhengnan of Mogao Grottoes and 20 kilometers northwest of the county seat of Subei Mongolia Autonomous County. The cave was cut on the sand cliff formed by the Danghe River, the sand cliff was about 30 meters high, and the cave was suspended on the half cliff, about 12-15 meters from the ground. On the cliffs of about 300 meters from south to north, there are 19 caves in existence, only the middle five can enter, so it is called "five temples", one of which has been destroyed in the early years. On the east bank of the Danghe, opposite the five temple grottoes, there are four caves. About 5 kilometers from the five temples, there is a grotto, commonly known as "a temple".

    This is really a very strong historical and cultural heritage. The grotto is the most distinctive place, very shocking and beautiful.
