Mogao Caves served as a religious and cultural center on a Silk Road, just a few miles away from the Dunhuang oasis. The rock massif contains hundreds of caves with beautiful Buddha carved into the rock. The interiors of the caves are extraordinarily dyed. Thanks to its uniqueness, it is under the patronage of Unesco
