Master Xiao Li is very young, very dedicated, very patient, the photo technology is quack, will try his best to find us a water toilet, try our best to meet our requirements, the day trip is very satisfied

@Dunhuang East Line, Guazhou County, Jiuquan City, Gansu Province: No camera photography is allowed in the Yulin Grottoes. The ordinary cave entrance ticket 🎫 40 yuan/person, introduce us to 4 or 5 caves. It is said that the caves are like real estate. There are owners, some people bought them, and some people bought them with crowdfunding. Four special caves, charging standards: the second special cave ticket price is 100 yuan/person, Shuiyue Guanyin; the third special cave 🎫 150 yuan/person, Puxian Bodhisattva changes, Wenshu Bodhisattva changes; the fourth special cave 🎫 100/person; the 25th special cave 🎫 200 yuan/person. I feel that the integrity of the special cave is better than that of Mogao Grottoes.

Yulin Grottoes are one of the must-visit places to come to Dunhuang. And it has its unique artistic value. Although the ticket price of the special cave is a bit expensive. The Yulin on the banks of the Yulin River is also very lush, and the river and the grottoes are also named for it.

You have to explain and lead to visit. A group of people enter a cave at a time, all crowded in the cave, there is no way to watch it. There is no light in the cave. You need to rely on the light of the explanation flashlight to see it clearly. There is no way to visit other caves freely. You must wait for the explanation to lock the last cave and then open the door of the next cave. The experience is poor and I hope to optimize the visit process.

Yes, it is worth it. You can see 4 caves for 40 yuan. It is not as crowded as Mogao Grottoes.

The driver is very good, the car is very stable, the car gives us various explanations, this trip is very good, the eucalyptus cave is very worth going once.

Four times to the Yulin Grottoes are from Guazhou, through a next door, gradually there are oasis and water flowing, through the broken city and Suoyang town, and then through the mushroom platform, Yulin Grottoes are not far away. The Yulin Grottoes were built on the cliffs on both sides of the Yulin River. Because of the name of the river, it is also called Wanfo Gorge. Mogao Grottoes are commonly known as Qianfo Caves, and the Yulin Grottoes are also called sister caves. The age of the opening of the Yulin Grottoes is no longer considered. Some caves are indeed very old and may be pushed to the Northern Wei. Then the existing statues and murals have no north dynasty figure, most of them are works after Tang Dynasty, and have been rebuilt and repainted through different eras such as the five generations, Song Dynasty, Xixia and Qing Dynasty. The existing caves are 43 caves, painted Buddhas, Tao map 10856 shops, painted Buddhas, Tao statues 244. Among the caves, Tang 3 Grottoes, Wudai 8 Grottoes, Song 13 Grottoes, Xixia, Yuan each 4 Grottoes, Qing 9 Grottoes. Yu and his friends went to Yulin Grottoes four times, walked into the world of Mandala in the 3 Grottoes, looked up at Wenshu Puxian change, and saw mysterious secret murals in the 4 Grottoes. Watching the cold and dark water in the 2 caves, the moon and the moon were excited, and the tears were full before the 25 caves changed, like drinking the sweet spring water in the desert oasis together. The Yulin Grottoes are like spring water, refreshing, although they have been far away, they still have a fragrant mouth. Total of 12 caves in the remaining four visits: 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 25, 26
