Lanzhou to Dunhuang

Westward along the silk road from Xi'an we took a couple of sleeper buses via Lanzhou to Dunhuang. An oasis in the Kumtag desert.  Home of the singing dunes, see pics and Mogao caves which we will visit tomorrow.

Sleeper bus scene
Lanzhou has some serious topiary. The shots of the best ones don't do them justice so you will just have to take my word for it

The fetching gators turned out to be indispensable accessory. Fashion meets function



The tallest dunes are 1750 metres high
