Set on the edge of the Silk Road, Dunhuang may seem like an unlikely place to find an oasis of Buddhist art. With towering dunes in the background, the caves here reflect the power of divine inspiration.
Dunhuang City, in northwest China's Gansu Province, is a pearl on the ancient Silk Road. It is more than a city's name, it's a witness to the history of cultural treasures that date back thousands of years.
The first of the city's eponymous grottoes was built in 344 AD, spawning a collection of caves that have become symbolic of the city.

We had a trip with Xinjiang China Travel Company last week and everything is 5 star. We highly appreciate the tour guide Jackie, the hotel quality and initiary that Leslie has arranged for us. Highly recommended if you want a warm, free and local trip with very reasonable price. Thanks Leslie for everything.

just to let you know the train trip went very smoothly and successfully. and thank you for organizing the porters. it is very helpful. without them our group particularly the elderly will find themselves in great difficulty. everyone enjoyed the train ride and they are happy with the dinner box. i myself is very pleased with the result, something i worried for awhile. the group is happy with the tour.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for organizing the trip which my daughter and I made to Xinjiang
We truly enjoyed each moment enthralled by the beauty of the scenic spots that we visited, the majesty of the historical buildings and sites and the kind welcome that we encountered everywhere by the people of Xinjiang.
We remain grateful to the guides that accompanied us during the trip for their great courtesy and the wealth of information they provided about each place that we visited.
In wishing you well for the Chinese New Year, I am convinced that with the level of excellent service provided, your company shall continue to grow in the coming years.
