Mogao Gave (or the Mogao Grottoes, Chinese: 莫高窟) is also called Buddha Gave (Chinese: 千佛洞). It lies in the precipice of Singing Sands Mountain (Chinese: 鸣沙山), 25 kilometers southeast to Dun Huang（Chinese:敦煌）, Gansu(Chinese: 甘肃), which is a province of western China. Here is a place that there is enough sunlight but little water throughout the year, which leads to its four distinctive seasons and large temperature difference between day and night. Mogao Gave covers more than 1600 meters from south to north. It has five levels and its highest site is 5 meters high. By now, it has 392 rock caverns(Chinese: 洞窟), more than 45000 square meters wall painting, 2415 colored sculptures and more than 4000 flying Apsaras (Chinese: 飞天) flying Apsaras (Chinese: 飞天). Due to its large scale, colorful contents, long history, Mogao Gave is called the Top 3 Grottoe and Art Treasure-houses in China with Yungang Grottoes in Shanxi, and Longmen Grottoes in Henan together.
