    "On the way from Dunhuang to Dachaidan, the scenic spot passing by is still worth punching in. There is a sense of vicissitudes and desolation in the west, which shows that the film and television props are made realistic. It is more sensational to check in after seeing the nine-story demon tower. The battery car can not sit, walk slowly. It’s good to walk slowly."

    "I went to see it a few days ago, but most of the shops inside are closed. There are few people in the scenic area but it is suitable for wearing costumes and taking pictures. The ancient city building can also be visited. You can rent an electric or bicycle outside to watch the flowers. The big brother who rents the car is very special. I like it very much. He loves Dunhuang very much, loves grottoes and murals, and talked for a long time when he left. It used to be an old film and television base for shooting. The specific city is a bit far away, but it doesn’t cost much to take a taxi. Next to it is Dunhuang Silk Road Heritage City, and then go to the ancient Thousand Buddha Cave. This line is also very valuable. Overall it is recommended to go"

Facing the bright moon alone and playing a pipa tune, this young man who pursued his dreams finally created a work in Dunhuang that comforted his life and realized his grand dream of integrating Eastern and Western music.
