The Dunhuang Art Academy is an institution dedicated to the research of the murals found inside the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, northwest China's Gansu Province. Many guests who visit the academy can see hand-painted replicas of the famous murals there, and can also enjoy the opportunity to try creating replicas of the artworks themselves through the ancient traditional technique of using a clay-made drawing board. Follow along as Rachel visits the academy and makes a copy of the "Nine-colored Deer," one of the iconic images of the Mogao Caves.
