So.. it's a very long way across China
along the Silk Road
remnants or copies of earlier times, I took in the museum
in Dunhuang, I presume most were found in the area
this worked well, though many were useless
due to poor light, & multiple reflections
looks like a mermaid, how did she end up in the midst of the desert?
an old photo of the Mogao caves ~ which are built into a
cliff face amongst the dunes ~ after long neglect
Now they have been shored up with concrete, &, inside, restoration
continues; its a Unesco World Heritage site.
The first one our group entered was a profoundly moving experience
for me, a truly spiritual space & so beautiful.
Look on YouTube, as there is no photography allowed now.
Theres also an old 12 part series 'The Silk Road', music by Kitaro
which is worth watching on You Tube.
