What are the best tourist attractions in Dunhuang in a few months?

Although Dunhuang is a desert, the scenic spots here are not inferior at all, and Dunhuang is not just a desert. Dunhuang has many scenic spots. Now Bian Xiao will tell you the relevant scenic spots and the best travel time.

According to the actual situation, it is suggested to go in early autumn, that is, September,1October. This season, the weather is sunny, the temperature is comfortable, the sandstorm is small, it is not so dry, the vegetation is rich, and everything feels very comfortable ~ But this season is the peak season, and tickets, accommodation, transportation and food will be more expensive ~

If you go to Dunhuang in winter, it is very suitable for the scenery of this desolate place in the northwest, and it feels a little endless. Tickets and the like have entered the off-season, which is really cheap! But it's too cold, and sometimes I stamp my feet when I look at the scenery. This feeling is really ... . . It's windy and dusty in spring ~ In fact, it's not bad in early summer, and it's not sunny. You can also see some green plants on the Gobi Desert, to compare the scenery! However, it's just a little dry these days!

The best travel time is generally May-June and August-September, which are relatively suitable seasons. Early summer is not hot, fruits and vegetables are ripe in autumn, and the peak of summer tourism is avoided. Every year is considered as the best time to travel.

Dunhuang belongs to a typical extremely low arid continental climate, which is dry and rainy, with a large temperature difference between day and night, with an average annual temperature of 9.3 degrees Celsius. Therefore, there are many sandstorms in spring, which 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.

Generally speaking, May-June and August-September are more suitable seasons. It's not hot in early summer, and fruits and vegetables are ripe in autumn, which is also the best time to travel every year.

The scenic spot Dunhuang is relatively concentrated, and there are many places worth visiting. This is a treasure house of national culture and art, and silk culture and Buddhist culture have far-reaching influence here.

Generally, it will be divided into the eastern line and the western line, and it will take about 2-3 days to finish it all. The way to travel is to take a taxi or charter a car. Because the mileage is not long, I usually charter a car for one day.

Around 300-400, depending on the off-season. Detailed route: West Line: Dunhuang Ancient City-West Thousand Buddha Cave-Yumenguan-Han Great Wall-Dunhuang Ghost Town.

East Line: Sunshine-Mogao Grottoes-Crescent Spring in Mingsha Mountain (the distance on the east line is short, so you don't need to charter a car all day, just take a taxi or take a bus).

Special note: If the Mogao Grottoes implement real-name reservation, you must make an appointment in official website or the official WeChat account in advance. The Mogao Grottoes sell 6000 tickets every day, and the tickets are opened 30 days in advance. The peak season is very tight, so you must make an appointment in advance.

What must-see spots are there to visit Dunhuang?

It can be said that most of the scenic spots in Dunhuang are national treasures, which are basically worth your time to see. After all, whether you can see it in the future is another matter (many relics or cultural relics are seriously damaged, so you should take a look less)

Some of the most classic must-see attractions:

1, Mogao Grottoes 2, Crescent Spring in Mingsha Mountain 3, Han Great Wall 4, Yumenguan 5, Yangguan 6, Ya Dan Ghost Town in Dunhuang 7, West Thousand Buddha Cave.

1. Mogao Grottoes: This scenic spot is especially worth visiting, with five stars! Not far from the railway station, you can go directly after getting off, and there is also a direct bus in the urban area 12. It is suggested to stay here for a day and listen carefully to the lecturer's introduction. It is suggested to prepare a small flashlight. The art of murals and Buddha statues is amazing!

2. Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring: Do you like desert? Do you like camels? Here is a five-star recommendation! Crescent spring is shaped like a crescent moon. Potamogeton and Charophyta grow in the spring, and reeds are dense on the south bank, surrounded by quicksand. This place is especially suitable for watching the sunset. It is suggested to take bus No.3 from downtown at 3 pm, see the spring first, and then climb the mountain. If you like helicopters, gliders, sand skiing and desert off-road vehicles, you can go to play, but the prices are not cheap ~

3. The film and television base of Dunhuang Ancient City (Tianshui Post) recorded by Running Man is the first stop on the western line, and it is not recommended to enter.

4. West Thousand-Buddha Cave: If you want to visit, at least 15 people are required, and the guide will lead you in. If there are not enough people, tickets are not sold here. The second stop on the western line, where chartered cars must pass, is generally recommended. If you especially like the Mogao Grottoes, this is a supplementary place!

5. Yumenguan: A large rectangular mound. . . More general. When you go, you will know that spring breeze is not enough, but it is just feelings. It doesn't matter if you don't look at the scenic spots. The third stop on the western line, the only place to charter a car, is generally recommended.

6. Yangguan: Yangguan site itself has nothing to see. Fortunately, the Yangguan Museum has been newly built, and there is also a viewing platform to enjoy the desert, oasis, ancient Silk Road and ancient beacon tower. The museum also built retro siege facilities and barracks, which are very realistic! Three stars recommended!

7. Han Great Wall Site: A long mound. . . Just passing by, this is really boring, there is no ticket!

8. Ya Dan landform: This is the last one in the western line, and it is recommended by five stars. You must watch the sunset! There are all kinds of wind erosion landscapes with different shapes. Tickets and sightseeing bus are not cheap. If you want to go deep into the scenic spot, you have to charter a jeep, a 45 1 car, and four people can go. If you really have feelings for this place, it's worth renting a jeep. After all, you can see different scenery!
