Overview of your Dunhuang tour:

Following me to take the Hexi Corridor adventure tour from Dunhuang, Jiayuguan, Zhangye , Lanzhou and Xiahe, I will show you how prosperous the ancient silk road was. Not only you will enjoy the particular natural scenery, but also you will learn about the treasures of the Silk Road and Buddhism art of Han and Tibet Buddhism. You will have chance to ride a camel in the desert like ancient caravans on the silk road and visit Labrang Monastery - one of the six famous monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism. It is a holy place where Buddhism followers learn the essence of Buddhism and retains the best Tibetan Buddhist teaching system in the country, which is well known as the "World Library of Tibet" in the world. Mogao and Binglingsi grottos are both listed as the World Heritages by UNESCO, where you can discover much value of Han Buddhism. And last but not least, Danxia National Geological park in Zhangye can be the paradise for photographers, where you can see rainbow colours from the masterpiece of nature
