  Located 6 km south of the Dunhuang city, the Yueyaquan lake is crescent shaped and is a source of attraction for tourists from all over the world. This beautiful lake is surrounded by a desert which is a treat to the eyes.

  Here you can enjoy not only the rare view where an oasis meets the desert, but also some fun sand adventures, such as riding camels, 'dune surfing' sand sliding. After climbing to the top of the dunes, from there you can't help but marvel at the dramatic view. You have discovered the wondrous sight of Crescent Spring!

  For thousands of years, Crescent Lake has remained clear and flowing. It is a real desert wonder. There are many beautiful legends about the formation of the lake but, in fact, the most important reason is the landscape. The land here is a little lower so the altitude is fit for storing water. In addition, research has revealed that in this special crescent landform, the falling sands from the surrounding dune would be sent back to the other side of the nearby Echoing-Sand Dune. Thus, the sands do not engulf the lake. This extraordinary earth movement keeps the sand dunes and lake eternally in a harmonious and almost paradoxical existence.

The Mountain Villa with Embracing Beauty was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997

  The Mountain Villa with Embracing Beauty was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997 along with a number of other Suzhou gardens. It sits within the present-day property of the Embroidery Museum. The history of the site extends back to the eastern Jin dynasty, when Wang Min and his brother donated their residence to create the Jingde temple. After changing hands several times, the temple became the Xuedao Academy of Classical Literature during the Ming Dynasty, and then became a government office in charge of food supplies. In the early 16th century, during the reign of the Wanli Emperor, the site passed into the control of Sheng Shixing, an esteemed scholar. During the early Qing dynasty his descendant, Sheng Jikui, built the Qu Garden here.More information about China Tours in chinatourguide.com.

A number of buildings are arranged opposite to the mountain. There are two halls to the south of the mountain, facing each other over a stream. The front hall is called “In Company with a Ravine” and the rear hall “the Mountain Villa with Embracing Beauty”. On the top of the mountain is a pavilion called “Housing the Mountain with a Half-Filled Pool in Autumn”. At its foot are the Putting-a-Question-to-the-Spring Pavilion and the Make-Up Autumn Galley. To the west of the mountain is a unique side structure with a long walkway on the ground floor and rooms one floor upstairs. There are viewing places high above or down below, far away or quite near. The man-made mountain scenery is changing at every step,and gives great pleasure to the viewer from any direction.

  In the late 18th century the garden became the residence of Jiang Ji, a director of the Jurisdiction Department. He had the site excavated, and after digging to a depth of one meter, a spring emerged which was fashioned into a pond called "Flying Snow". He also built the "Qiuzi Tower" and created a rockery behind it. The garden subsequently was owned by by minister Bi Yuan and Sun Shiyi, a renowned scholar. Around 1810 Sun's descendents invited the rockery master Ge Yuliang to reconstruct the garden in the limited confines of the site. Working within an area of about 2,180 square meters, Ge fashioned a man-made mountain occupying about 500 square meters. He constructed a series of interconnected pavilions placed in a manner such that wherever one stood in the garden, other pavilions could be seen at varying heights and altitudes. The effect is intended to make the space appear larger, and the illusion is one of the chief charms of this small gem of a garden.
