I have always been very yearning for this place, and I was not disappointed after I went. Everyone had a great time and will go again next time. Dunhuang and Jinta Temple Grottoes are famous for flying sky, different from that, Dunhuang Feitian is a plane mural flying sky, and Jinta Temple Grottoes Feitian is a "V" shape, more expressive three-dimensional high meat sculpture, not only that, these Feitian sculptures are 300 years earlier than Dunhuang Feitian, It's a priceless treasure.

    This is one of the attractions in the Horseshoe Temple Scenic Area. You need to buy additional tickets. It takes more than half an hour to drive from the Horseshoe Temple Central Scenic Area. The scenic area is really too big. And it doesn't open every day.

    Quintas is an attraction in the Horseshoe Temple scenic spot, but the distance is more than 20 kilometers, and it takes half an hour to drive. All are mountain roads, and it takes more than 20 people to make an appointment in advance.

    I saw this colorful three-dimensional sky at the Zhangye Museum. I was directly amazed. I asked the museum administrator to know that the collection is from Jinta Temple. And it can be photographed in the museum. I am lucky to see it. The costume of the sky is obviously also with the western style, it can be seen that the time is earlier, and the posture of the sky is also closer to the early form of India. It can be seen that it is earlier than the Dunhuang sky, and the three-dimensional feeling is stronger, the color is more vivid, it is really great.

    Not worth it! ! So expensive tickets let tourists exposed to the sun outside the door for an hour, even if they haven't explained [halo] [halo] [halo]. If you are not particularly interested, it is not recommended to go, the experience is very poor
