Qingzang Gaoyuan) is a vast, elevated plateau in Central Asia[1][2][3][4] covering most of the Tibet Autonomous Region and Qinghai Province in China and Ladakh in Kashmir, India. It occupies an area of around 1,000 by 2,500 kilometers, and has an average elevation of over 4,500 meters. Sometimes called "the roof of the world," it is the highest and biggest plateau, with an area of 2.5 million square kilometers (about four times the size of Texas or France).[5] The plateau is bordered to the northwest by the Kunlun Range which separates it from the Tarim Basin, and to the northeast by the Qilian Range which separates the plateau from the Hexi Corridor and Gobi Desert. Near the south the plateau is transected by the Yarlung Tsangpo River valley which flows along the base of the Himalayas, and by the vast Indo-Gangetic Plain. To the east and southeast the plateau gives way to the forested gorge and ridge geography of the mountainous headwaters of the Salween, Mekong, and Yangtze rivers in western Sichuan and southwest Qinghai. In the west it is embraced by the curve of the rugged Karakoram range of northern Kashmir. It has been empirically shown to be the most remote place on Earth.[7] The Tibetan plateau has been an important strategic area throughout Chinese history. NASA satellite image of the southern area of Tibetan PlateauThe plateau is a high-altitude arid steppe interspersed with mountain ranges and large brackish lakes. Annual precipitation ranges from 100 mm to 300 mm and falls mainly as hailstorms. The southern and eastern edges of the steppe have grasslands which can sustainably support populations of nomadic herdsmen, although frost occurs for six months of the year. Permafrost occurs over extensive parts of the plateau. Proceeding to the north and northwest, the plateau becomes progressively higher, colder and drier, until reaching the remote Changthang region in the northwestern part of the plateau. Here the average altitude exceeds 5,000 meters (16,500 feet) and year-round temperatures average −4 °C, dipping to −40 °C in winter. As a result of this extremely inhospitable environment, the Changthang region (together with the adjoining Kekexili region) is the least populated region in Asia, and the third least populated area in the world after Antarctica and northern Greenland.

Dunhuang Mogao Caves Silk Road Tours: Adventure along the Silk Road to explore the ancient cities and rich culture.. Dunhuang lies at the western end of the Gansu Corridor, called Hexi Zoulang. The name Dunhuang originally meant "prospering, flourishing"-- a hint that Dunhuang must once have been an important city. Its position at the intersection of two trade routes was what made Dunhuang flourish. The coming and going of horse and camel caravans carried new thoughts, ideas, arts and sciences to the East and West. It was Europeans who re-opened the road in their search for the ancient Silk Road cities. It happened in the latter part of the last century.

Dunhuang Mogao Caves Silk Road Tours: Adventure along the Silk Road to explore the ancient cities and rich culture.. Dunhuang lies at the western end of the Gansu Corridor, called Hexi Zoulang. The name Dunhuang originally meant "prospering, flourishing"-- a hint that Dunhuang must once have been an important city. Its position at the intersection of two trade routes was what made Dunhuang flourish. The coming and going of horse and camel caravans carried new thoughts, ideas, arts and sciences to the East and West. It was Europeans who re-opened the road in their search for the ancient Silk Road cities. It happened in the latter part of the last century. These tours can begin very logically in Xian, proceeding via Lanzhou and the Jiayuguan Pass to the Magao Caves of Dunhuang, and then to Turpan, Urumqi and Kashi. Mogao Caves, or Mogao Grottoes (also known as the Caves of the Thousand Buddhas and Dunhuang Caves) form a system of 492 temples 25 km (15.5 miles) southeast of the center of Dunhuang, an oasis strategically located at a religious and cultural crossroads on the Silk Road, in Gansu province, China. The caves contain some of the finest examples of Buddhist art spanning a period of 1,000 years.[1] The first caves were dug out 366 AD as places of Buddhist meditation and worship.[2] The Mogao Caves are the best known of the Chinese Buddhist grottoes and, along with Longmen Grottoes and Yungang Grottoes, are one of the three famous ancient sculptural sites of China. The caves also have famous wall paintings. According to local legend, in 366 AD a Buddhist monk, Lè Zūn , had a vision of a thousand Buddhas and inspired the excavation of the caves he envisioned. The number of temples eventually grew to more than a thousand.[3] As Buddhist monks valued austerity in life, they sought retreat in remote caves to further their quest for enlightenment. From the 4th until the 14th century, Buddhist monks at Dunhuang collected scriptures from the west while many pilgrims passing through the area painted murals inside the caves. The cave paintings and architecture served as aids to meditation, as visual representations of the quest for enlightenment, as mnemonic devices, and as teaching tools to inform illiterate Chinese about Buddhist beliefs and stories. Dunhuang was of great importance as a defensive and cultural center on the western borders of the Chinese empire at various points in its history. The routes west going north and south of the Taklamakan Desert split near Dunhuang. The route to the south and southwest was guarded by the so-called "Jade Gate" (Yü Guan) and "Southern Gate" (Yang Guan) which were garrisoned and supplied from Dunhuang. The Dunhuang region was the site of very important Buddhist monastic complexes, the most famous of which was at the Mogao Grottoes, where today one can see a treasure trove of Buddhist art covering a span of more than a millenium. It is said that in the fourth century a Buddhist monk had a vision of 1000 Buddhas, and began to carve grottoes into the sandstone cliff and fill them with buddhist images. They were abandoned and forgotten in around the 11th century until Stein and other archaeologists arrived to carry away huge quantities of manuscripts, textiles and other art objects. However Magao remains a brilliant trove of statues and wall paintings from the 4th to 10th centuries

Dunhuang fresco is the composing part of Dunhuang grotto art. The grotto art of Dunhuang is great and profound. Represented by Mogao Grottoes, the grotto art of Dunhuang is rich and colorful, and exist in large quantities, including frescos, painted sculptures, scriptures, scrolls and a lot of other artistic forms. Among the artistic forms, the relics of the frescos in the Mogao Grottoes are the most attractive. In the Tang Dynasty, the Mogao Grottoes had boasted more than a thousand stone grottoes. Now, 492 grottoes have been left, together with 45000 square meters of frescos in them. The portrayed social life scenes and appearances of various people of different dynasties before the Tang Dynasty among the frescos of Dunhuang are the precious materials for researching on the clothes and customs of the people of all the ethnics in different dynasties. The frescos can be divided into Buddha statue paintings, Buddhist sutra paintings, narrative paintings, alimentation paintings, animal paintings, landscape paintings, decoration paintings and so on. The Buddha statue paintings include the portraits of various Buddha statues and Bodhisattvas while Buddhist sutra paintings, which are also called "sutra converted painting", uses the means of painting to express the contents of Buddhist sutras. The narrative paintings, however, are characterized by rich contents, vivid plots and strong traces of life, so, they are embedded with great attractiveness. Alimentation paintings are the portraits of the people who believed in Buddhism and donated funds to build grottoes, together with their relatives and servants. The beautiful natural sceneries in some of the landscape paintings are painted according to the landscapes in sutra, while some others are independent pictures that take landscapes as the main parts. There are also colorful decoration paintings, which were used to decorate the grotto buildings. Dunhuang frescos have abundant contents, varied forms and vivid time characteristics. They reflect that the craftsmen at that time had advanced painting skills and abundant imagination power. They provide a large amount of objective materials for researching on the Chinese art history.
