Yanqi Seven Stars Thousand Buddha Caves

One of the four towns in Anxi, the ancient Silk Road fortress, the Buddhist center of "Yuan" County, is located in seven Xingzhen, and the site of the Buddha Temple is very close to the expressway Ziniquan toll station. The north and south are about 500 meters long and the east and west are about 200 meters wide. The front yard and back caves have spring water and reeds. Built in the Jin Dynasty, about 1700 years old. Xuanxu and other high monks have visited or preached. Aka "Mingwu", Uighur meaning "thousand rooms", is enough to reflect the prosperity of the cultural exchange between East and West Buddhism. After the storms of the past, especially the looting of the "explorers" of the modern empires, there are 93 remaining houses and 11 grottoes. However, its unique art form and blended culture are still an important historical landscape to understand the Western culture and the Silk Road.

This is a historical monument that has only been built in recent years, just on the side of the road, and the transportation is convenient. The visibility is not high, there are not many tourists, but this is a place worth seeing! I only saw the robberies of old Chinese foreign powers and the destruction of Chinese Buddhist historical relics! This is the place where Tang monks once preached, as a Buddhist monastery in the ancient kingdom of the ancient kingdom, the number of people nearby 6,000 to 8,000, you can see the glory of that time! Tickets are 30 yuan, the front is not big, but go inside, very deep, to the innermost thousand Buddha cave more than 3 kilometers, it is recommended to take the scenic battery car to go. When we went in, there was no one in the scenic spot. I don’t know if I took a battery car or the specific distance time. The scenic spot is newly built. It is recommended to make clear that there is a wooden plank road protection to Nansi Beisi, but the prompt is not clear. You have to take the wrong road! The Buddhist history of Qianfodong is said to be better than a grotto in Xinjiang, only because we walked two kilometers in the hot sun, only to return to Nansi, unfortunately!

The scenery is pleasant, the historical and cultural atmosphere is strong, the Buddha Cultural Site Museum, along the Silk Road, I recommend everyone to come to travel and study

The seven-star thousand Buddha caves in Jixian County are worth your visit, showing the long history + tourism model, looking forward to your visit, Xinjiang has been an inseparable part of the Chinese nation since ancient times, and you must cast the consciousness of the Chinese nation community.

"The historical and cultural heritage is strong, it is worth a visit"

I have been there before, very good, with a long history and cultural heritage, the scenic spot Waiyu County is also worth visiting

Very interesting place, very good and want to go again.
