When is the best time to go to Dunhuang?

Dunhuang belongs to a typical extremely low arid continental climate, with dry and little rain, large temperature difference between day and night, and an average annual temperature of 9.3 degrees Celsius. Therefore, there are many sandstorms in spring, which greatly affects travel and mood, while in winter, the temperature is low and there are few green plants, which greatly affects the scenery. Therefore, the best travel time is in summer and autumn, specifically from May to 10 every year.

If you want to pursue a perfect journey, I suggest you go between August 15 and September 10, because all kinds of fruits are ripe (such as grapes in Nanhu) during this time, avoiding the high temperature period, which is the best travel time every year.
