Out of protection, the number of open caves in Dunhuang is currently limited, and tourist -style sightseeing is difficult to feel smooth.

Twelve representative caves in each period, dozens of general caves, special caves, and no open caves, deeply experienced the artistic charm of Dunhuang.

"Dunhuang is far away, and we recruit volunteers in the world's recruitment of 'Dunhuang Cultural Watchmen'. They not only have to learn and train 40, but also propose their own communication plans to become the spreaders of Dunhuang culture. This" Dunhuang Watch Watching Forty Days are one of the results. "Yang Xiuqing said that since the Sui and Tang dynasties, the popular culture of the Dunhuang Grottoes has emerged. Dunhuang Grottoes saw the elements of Jiangnan, which fully reflects the diversity of cultural exchanges, and also reflects the personal color and three -dimensional nature of the book.

"I went to Dunhuang for the first time in 1979. At that time, it was not easy. It was not easy to take the train to Liuyuan first, and then changed the long -distance car. There was only one morning every day. People; two are not easy to be in identity conditions: I can only go because I am a graduate student. "Ge Jianxiong said that it was difficult to understand Dunhuang culture without reading a lot of relevant information before. Now it is different. The convenience of spreading makes ordinary people approach Dunhuang. "Why is Dunhuang attractive? From the book" Forty Days of Dunhuang ", what I see is that different people have gained different things from Dunhuang, which is also the charm of Dunhuang. The more important is not to become a watchman. 40 days, but the spread after 40 days. "

Ge Jianxiong analyzed that there are many sources of Dunhuang culture, but they have been Chinese. Many contents are religious on the surface, but they are actually secular. Dunhuang culture is a product of integration. Although it was not protected for a time, it was precisely under this condition that the Dunhuang culture continued. In Dunhuang, we can even see the factors of Greek mythology. We don't know how to spread it, but the way human cultural exchanges are often richer than we think.

After entering the selection list, I want to prepare the plan after the training. This book is part of the plan." Jiang Jiang. "Jiang Remembering, when I came to Dunhuang, I thought it was easy, but in the more than 40 days of studying and training, I never fell asleep before 1 am a day. Dunhuang in his eyes.

"In the 40 days in Dunhuang, despite the pressure, I still insisted on writing a diary every day. It was originally for" fighting forgotten ". This book was jointly experienced by the third" Dunhuang Cultural Watchman ". It has a lot of useful information. Readers can be used as a guide before the trip. I also hope that readers can find their daily life and the cultural connection with Dunhuang after the journey is on the journey, and to create an uncomfortable life with heart. "Jiang Li said.
