Dunhuang Mogao grottoes travel guide

Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are undisputed world treasures. Feel the art of color. If there is an opportunity, you must come here to feel it. Unconsciously, it will be very awe-inspiring. Let's briefly talk about some things that need attention when we come here today.

When standing in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, it seems that a distant dream suddenly comes true, and a dialogue that has crossed the Millennium slowly opens. Almost every cave has a unique story.

Normal ticket: 238 yuan in peak season, old people and children 148 yuan. It is recommended to buy 1 month in advance, and watch two movies before watching the eight holes in the peak season.

Emergency ticket: 100 yuan, old people and children 55 yuan, can see 4 holes.

Special Cave: 150/200 yuan. Do you need to visit a special cave early? While it's sold out, go to the queue.

Visit process:

Change the "scenic gate" to a paper ticket (the full-price ticket can be a self-service machine, and others can find a manual window)

Watch two digital movies for 40 minutes;

After watching the movie, take the scenic bus (20 minutes) to the Mogao Grottoes, and then walk a short distance.

Find a commentator to get headphones and visit ordinary caves;

After visiting the ordinary grottoes, buy tickets to continue visiting the characteristic grottoes and visit Wenchuang shops;

Come back and cross a small bridge. After crossing the bridge, 1) you can visit the exhibition center, where there is a replica cave worth seeing. 2) Return to the bus stop and take the bus to the "scenic gate" again.

You can choose to buy a special hole after the regular ticket is over.

After the normal visit, you can go out from the exit, then walk to the entrance and queue up at the artificial window to buy tickets for special caves. The number of grottoes opened every day is different and limited. A characteristic cave, 200 yuan.

The caves entered at different times, with a group of 15-20 people. People will also have a commentator. Some of these people may look at all three holes, while others only look at one hole. If the narrator shows you the other two caves first, then people who only look at one cave will have to wait outside.

Recommended (random every day)

Cave 45: the most beautiful statue of the Tang Dynasty

Cave 57: The Most Beautiful Bodhisattva

Cave 275: Beiliang Cave, the earliest cave in Dunhuang.

Cave 220: The most classic cave described in the documentary Hexi Corridor.

There are 4 special holes every day in the peak season and 2 special holes every day in the off-season, and the number of special holes released in different fields may be repeated.

note:

Leave enough time to visit the Mogao Grottoes! It will take at least 5 hours to experience it! Because many places have to line up, line up, line up! ? We have to queue up to visit, do sightseeing bus and watch movies!

Before coming to the Mogao Grottoes, I suggest seeing the Hexi Corridor! The experience will be stronger!

The ticket office can change the electronic ticket into a commemorative ticket, and then go to the Wenchuang store inside to stamp it!
