Ming Sashan Sand Dunes It is a square-shaped sand mountain. It looks sparkling with the color of the sky. The more camels walk in a row in the desert. There is a morning sun shining. It is a very impressive image. There is also an oasis called Moon Lake in the middle of the desert. It is a pond that never dries up. Sightseeing can take a Jeep or a camel ride. Very fun.

A beautiful but deceivingly small area to go and experience the desert. Walking across sand dunes can be quite difficult, so make sure you wear appropriate footwear. You'll enjoy the scenery for sure.

Lot of people and to get up the dunes via stairs you need to be in a line. Otherwise great views

This is like an oasis in the desert. There is a crescent shaped lake right in the desert. The sand is very fine and it can find its way into our shoes. This is a tourist spot where tourists can go camel riding or slide down the sand dunes. Riding a camel was a great experience. Tourists are warned not to drop their handphones because they can sink into the sand.

At here, you’ll be able to see the oasis town in the desert. 月牙泉 (Yùe yá quán), means the 🌙 spring. It is a natural spring fed by the groundwater. 鳴沙山 (Míng shā shān) is the sand dune protecting the spring next to it. Every night in the midsummer, you’ll be able to hear thousands of people singing and waving their flashlight, which mimics the stars inlaid in the dark blue sky.;) A nice thing to try is that women can decorate themselves as 飛天 (Fēi tiān), the acient fairy described in the Dunhuang fresco. I hope you can enjoy it, and I am so proud to say that I come from this province.

You can ride a camel here while enjoying the Sand Mountain. We were going on March , but still feel quite hot. This sand Mountain is huge and beautiful. It’s located only few km out of Dunhuang. It’s worth to visit. Tips: Bring scarf or big hat to cover the face from sand and sun.
