September-October is the peak tourist season in Dunhuang. At this time, the weather is dry and the temperature is suitable. The clear blue sky and the golden Populus euphratica are set against each other, and the colors are particularly beautiful.

Many people’s impression of Dunhuang is the sky full of yellow sand and the ancient Buddhas in the Mogao Grottoes. It is full of strong Western style. Although the glory of Dunhuang has gradually been lost in history, the former glory here can still be seen. The Mogao Grottoes are the largest and richest Buddhist art site in the world. Because it contains profound history, glorious culture, high artistic achievements, and devout beliefs, it is known as a "must visit once in a lifetime" place.

If you travel to Dunhuang, you can arrange 2-3 days. On the first day, take the east route, set off to visit Mogao Grottoes in the morning, visit Mingsha Mountain in the afternoon, and go to Shazhou Night Market in the evening to look for food and souvenirs.
