Nine Floors of Dunhuang Review

Touring Mogao Grottoes, the most eye-catching thing must be the red wooden building occupying the C position - nine floors. The nine-story building, anciently known as the Peking University statue, is now known as the 96th cave of Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as the Great Buddha Hall. The main honor of the cave is the stone tire mud plastic built in 695 years sitting on the Maitreya statue, built on the mountain, full and round, like 36 meters high, is the largest Buddha statue of Mogao Grottoes. When the first construction, the Peking University statue was kiln, and the floor was 4 floors. Multiple reconstructions, the floors are gradually higher, 4-5-7-9 floors. The existing nine-story building was built in 1927-1935, and was overhauled in 1986 and 2011. As a symbol of Dunhuang's business card and Mogao Grottoes, the nine-story building is 43 meters high and magnificent; the next 7 floors are built on the cliff, and the white wall is Danyu; The upper 2 floors protect the top of Maitreya like the head, towering and flying... next to the building, the elegant architecture, the vicissitudes of history, panoramic view.

Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as Qianfo Cave, are located in Dunhuang at the west end of the Hexi Corridor. It was built in the pre-Qin period of the 16th country, after the construction of the 16th country, the Northern Dynasty, the Sui, Tang, the fifth generation, Xixia, Yuan and other generations, forming a huge scale, there are 735 caves, murals 4.5 10,000 square meters, muddy color plastic 2415, is the world's largest existing scale, The most content Buddhist art place. Enter Mogao Grottoes, first enjoy two digital themed movies in the digital center before taking the bus in the scenic area to enter the physical cave. The Millennium Mogao and the ball screen film "Dream Buddha Palace", the two films introduced the millennium history and brilliant culture of Mogao Grottoes, especially the effect of the "Dream Buddha Palace" is particularly shocking and worth experiencing. The history of the last thousand years is all concentrated in hundreds of caves in a few hundred. Photographing is not allowed inside the cave. The lighting of the photo can damage the mural. We enter each cave with a pious heart and light footsteps. Our hearts were shocked again and again, seeing the incomparable exquisiteness of the murals on each wall, the characters were lifelike, the colors were colorful, the soft body of each statue and the light smile at the corners of the mouth were so faintly quiet, and the top of the cave was also decorated incomparably gorgeous. It seems that the millennia ago craftsmen with a most pious heart, carefully depicting the most holy and beautiful yearning in their hearts.

The grottoes we all see now are actually temple lofts on one floor after another in the past. The nine-story building is the final stage of the Mogao Grottoes tour, and it is also the highest point of Mogao Grottoes, so there will be many tourists taking pictures in front. Sitting in the nine-story building with a big Buddha, you will be shocked by the overall image of the big Buddha, but unfortunately in order to protect the cultural relics, I can't take pictures, so I only took some good-looking photos when I entered the door. It is recommended that you do not leave in a hurry after visiting the 9th floor. You can check in in front of the door, because if you go out here, you will have to leave the main scenic spot of Mogao Grottoes. The next stop will be several memorials built by Japanese.

Worth seeing, I like the atmosphere, cultural atmosphere and historical origin here, it is worth every Chinese to come here to see
