They are one of the four largest grottoes in China, and the largest and best-preserved treasure house of Buddhist art in the world. The Mogao Grottoes are located 25 kilometers southeast of Dunhuang City, and are dug on the cliff at the eastern foot of Mingsha Mountain. In the second year of Qin and Fujian (AD 366), Mensa believers came here. Seeing the glittering golden light and the Thousand Buddha Cave on Mingsha Mountain, I had a heart and built it continuously, becoming a Buddhist holy place, named Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as Thousand Buddha Cave. China Grottoes originated in India. The traditional grottoes in India are dominated by stones, while the sculptures in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are mainly clay murals because rocks are not suitable for carving.

Climbing the mountain is extremely difficult, but I still find it interesting. I climbed to the top of the mountain with all my strength. At this time, I felt a strong wind with fine sand coming towards my body, singing in my ears, leaving footprints that soon disappeared. It is said that a gust of wind blew, and the gravel falling from the top of the mountain fell with the human body, and the sand mountain made a loud noise. On weekdays, the breeze blows like string bamboo, hence the name Mingsha Mountain. The sunset scenery of Mingsha Mountain is even more intoxicating and should not be missed. The crescent moon is about 300 meters long and 50 meters wide, surrounding Mingsha Mountain. The poplars by the spring are graceful, and the fish in the spring swim leisurely.

Since then, as the gateway to the western regions, Yangguan is the only place where the South Road of the Silk Road passes, and its strategic position is extremely important. Since the Western Han Dynasty, many dynasties have taken this place as a military stronghold and sent troops to guard it. Xuanzang became a monk, took the South Silk Road from India, went east to Yangguan, and returned to Chang 'an and China. Cen Can, a frontier poet, once wrote the poem "Two years of official business, two years of sunshine".

One day, he found a unique good horse among the wild horses. This horse is very tall, with extraordinary bones and purple fur. It runs like a raging fire.
