Our first stop today is the Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as the Thousand Buddha Caves, are located on the cliff at the eastern foot of the Mingsha Mountain, 25 kilometers southwest of Dunhuang City, facing the eastern side of the Tongquan River. 

Then head to the Singing Sand Dunes on the edge of the Gobi Desert. The sand mountain is a desert formed under the action of wind. The long yellow sand gathers here to form the sand mountain. The sand mountain will ring under the wind, so it gets its name. 

Once there, you can choose activities that interest you, such as sand skiing and camel riding or relaxing in the Crescent Moon Spring which is a small lake, the water is quite clear and blue. In full sunlight, the water glows with the pleasant colors of the garden.
