Description

If you like my mod, please like it on up side, it will be a great encouragement to me.

"The sacred spring of this famous place remains clear until dawn, and Wowo is still known as it was in the past. A bay like the crescent moon rising for the first time, the clear waves on the half wall are as bright as a mirror. The wind never stirs up flying sand, and the deep pool contains still water, truly alive. Frequently playing by the pavilion, absorbing the fragrance of tea and brewing it myself." - Su Lüji, 'Ode to the Eight Scenes of Dunhuang - Clear Sound of Shaling' "Shazhou has been a famous area since ancient times, and the land is truly known for its sounds. Hearing the lingering sound of thunder, the wind creates fine sounds, whispering like a conversation. Piled up like a mountain reaching a thousand feet high, reflecting the sun and illuminating all six corners. Ingenious craftsmanship relies on human effort, and the sound can be heard instantly." - Su Lüji, 'Ode to the Eight Scenes of Dunhuang- Dawn at Yuequan'

The Singing Sand Dunes in Dunhuang, China, are the sand dunes that, when the wind blows, give out a singing or drumming sound. The Singing Sand Dunes were originally known as the "Gods' Sand Dunes". In the Records of the Grand Historian, Sima Qian described the sound "as if listening to music when the weather is fine." During the Ming Dynasty, they came to be called by the current name.
Yueyaquan is a crescent-shaped lake in an oasis. The lake was named Yueyaquan in the Qing Dynasty. Mildred Cable and Francesca French visited the lake during their travels in the region in 1932 and recorded their impressions in their book The Gobi Desert: "All around us we saw tier on tier of lofty sand-hills, giving the lie to our quest, yet when, with a final desperate effort, we hoisted ourselves over the last ridge and looked down on what lay beyond, we saw the lake below, and its beauty was entrancing."
