Winter tour to Zhangye - Matisi Temple

Matisi Temple under the Qilian Mountains, named after the horse's hoof print left by the heavenly horse drinking water here.🐎 This place is worth taking a day to stroll around, there are very few people in the off-season, self-driving is more recommended, the time is more ample, you can visit slowly. The Thousand Buddha Caves carved on the cliff are really shocking and interesting, with unique cultural characteristics. There are explanations in the 1-4 special caves, be careful when crawling inside the cave!!! Because the off-season tickets are free, the Thirty-three Days Grottoes still charge. It is more convenient to charter a car from Zhangye city, and you feel like you are approaching the Qilian Snow Mountain all the way. When you really stand under the snow mountain, it feels so spectacular, it is recommended not to take pictures on the way, wait until you get to the entrance of Matisi Temple. The Thirty-three Days Grottoes are highly recommended to explore, it's quite interesting.
