Silk Road Oasis in Dunhuang🇨🇳

#timetotravel If you are doing the Silk Road Tour then do not miss this place. It just a wonder how this oasis survived in the middle of the desert for such a long time. It is I guess the only remaining oasis along the silk road that hasn't dried up yet. But of course, it needed human intervention. They didn't want to lose this oasis in Dunhuang so the all worked hard to preserve this and now it has become a famous tourist attraction along the silk road. It is a far walk from the main entrance so make sure you go there early to avoid too many tourists as well. If you want the best view of the crescent moon lake then I suggest that you climb up the sand dune. It becomes too hot during the day so make sure to applu sun cream and their pavillion offers drinks anyway for extra charge. Entrance Fee: 100 RMB ( but since the lake is far away from the entrance you can either opt to walk or pay extra to ride a camel or a mini shuttle bus. Enjoy the experience! #mytripvlog #tripblazers #silkroad #chinatravel #dunhuang
