Hi, Li Ming

Road.

food. Then we will take a train to Lanzhou. It is not far from Xi’an.
I want to walk along the Yellow River. Our last stop along the Silk Road is Dunhuang.
Dunhuang is my dream city. I’m looking forward to visiting the Mogao Caves. I can’t
wait to see the beautiful ancient paintings there.
