Mogao Caves (UNESCO/NHK)

Situated at a strategic point along the Silk Route, at the crossroads of trade as well as religious, cultural and intellectual influences, the 492 cells and cave sanctuaries in Mogao are famous for their statues and wall paintings, spanning 1,000 years of Buddhist art.

    Wow, never knew tht existed. Its absolutely astonishing and amazing. Why cant we build homes like bak thn?? Now we chop down trees for the wood frames of our homes. I think it would be awesome to live in a cave.

    was Mogao first or Petra first ? Sounded like Mogao first and refreshed, ie new caves and paintings added as years go by. BUT I can't find any independent study supporting this.

    Amida is a buddha, the main buddha for Pure Land Buddhists, not a god. If this film is done by nhk where pure land still has millions of followers today, you'd expect they'd get a writer, director and narrator who'd know better, especially for a unesco vid.

    It is a pity that the Mogao grottoes in Dunhuang were destroyed by the colonists.

    They were not destroyed?? Have you been there? yes there has been vandalization and some trophy taking, some damage done by Russian prisoners ect. However they are mostly largely intact and original apart from a few repairs over the centuries. The biggest pity is all the best scriptures/scrolls were sold by the monk care taker. No denying the colonists did terrible things and did destroy a lot of other things, however the most destruction of cultural and religious art/buildings and sites ect was done by Mao in the cultural revolution hands down. Almost every temple ect i went to when last in china was a rebuilt replica after the cultural revolution destruction.
