2025Stargazing in Dunhuang|trip.com

The starry sky of Dunhuang, with its clearly visible constellations, planets and even deep-space objects, makes people feel unprecedented shock and awe. Here, visitors can clearly identify classic constellations such as the Big Dipper and the Altair and Vega, and even have the opportunity to see the magnificent sight of meteors streaking through the night sky, or use a telescope to explore the craters of the moon, the beautiful rings of Saturn, and the mysterious nebulae in distant galaxies. In addition to stargazing, Dunhuang's unique geographical location and cultural background also add infinite charm to this activity. Visitors can let the thousand-year history and the vast starry sky complement each other in front of the ancient Mogao Grottoes; or listen to the gentle singing of fine sand at the foot of Mingsha Mountain, look up at the sky full of stars, and feel the harmonious coexistence of nature and humanity. This unique experience makes stargazing in Dunhuang not only a visual enjoyment, but also a cultural exploration.
