Home to the world-renowned Mogao Grottoes and the Crescent Lake at Mingsha Mountain, the city of Dunhuang in northwest China's Gansu has seen rising numbers of tourists this summer. It is also a major stop on the ancient Silk Road. Travel through the sands of time when you ride camels in the desert, and experience the charm of the trade routes of long ago.
