Verb (abbreviation of verb) Mingsha Mountain-Yueya Spring Scenic Area Mingsha Mountain-Yueya Spring Scenic Area

Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring in Dunhuang are twin sisters in the desert Gobi. "The mountain is famous for its spirit, and the water is beautiful with spirit". No matter how many tourists travel in Gansu, whether they have a bird's eye view from the top of the mountain or swim by the spring, they will be yearning for it, and they do have the feeling of "singing sand mountains and washing their hearts with crescent springs".

Mingsha Mountain in Dunhuang is a national key tourist scenic spot, which was called Shensha Mountain and Shajiao Mountain in ancient times. Located 5 kilometers south of Dunhuang, it is a magical and magnificent tourist attraction in Gansu on the Silk Road. Located seven kilometers south of Dunhuang City, Gansu Province, it is the transitional zone between Badain Jaran Desert and Taklimakan Desert, covering an area of about 200 square kilometers, with a length of about 40 kilometers from east to west and a width of 20 kilometers from north to south. It starts from the cliff top of Mogao Grottoes in the east and meets Danghe Reservoir in the west. The mountain peak is steep, like a blade. The whole mountain is composed of oily fine-grained yellow sand. The Sha Feng is undulating, and the mountain is "like a dragon winding" and glittering. There are two strange places in Mingsha Mountain: if people fall from the top of the mountain, the sand under their feet will whine; The footprints left by people who climbed the sand mountain during the day were gone the next day. It is said that when the wind blows wildly, the gravel falling from the top of the mountain falls with the human body, and the sand mountain will make a loud noise. On weekdays, the breeze blows, and it looks like a stringed bamboo, hence the name Mingsha Mountain. The highest peak of Mingsha Mountain is 1650 meters above sea level, just like two sand arms stretching to surround the crescent spring.

Crescent Spring, known as Shajing in ancient times and Yaoquan in common name, is located at the northern foot of Mingsha Mountain, 5 kilometers south of Dunhuang City, Gansu Province. Throughout the ages, it is famous for its wonderful landscape of "mountain spring * * * sand water * * *" and is known as "one of the scenic spots beyond the Great Wall". Since the Han Dynasty, it has been one of the "Eight Scenes of Dunhuang" and was named "Yue Quan Che Xiao". The crescent spring is nearly 100 meters long from north to south and about 25 meters wide from east to west. The spring is deep in the east and shallow in the west, with the deepest point of about 5 meters. Bending like a crescent moon, hence the name, it is called "the first spring in the desert". Crescent spring looks like a crescent moon. Potamogeton and Charophyta grow in the spring. The south bank is thick with reeds and surrounded by quicksand, although the spring is not covered with sand in the strong wind. The poplars by the spring are slim and graceful, and the fish swim leisurely in the spring. The spring water is light blue, clear and soft, and delicious, so it is named because the water surface looks like a crescent moon. Because "the spring reflects the moon without dust" and "the ancient sand does not fill the spring, and the spring does not wither", it has become a great spectacle. According to legend, there are iron-backed fish and seven-star grass growing in the spring, which are specialized in treating incurable diseases and can live forever, so it is also called "medicine spring". For thousands of years, it has not been submerged by the surrounding quicksand, nor has it been dried up by drought. It is the first spring in desert in the world, which is breathtaking. 1994 has been designated as a national key scenic spot.
