 Best time to visit Dunhuang
Dunhuang can be visited year round but the best months tend to be October and November and then March and April. It can be a little chilly in winter and very hot in the summer months but winter has the advantage of very few tourists giving the often snow covered dunes largely to yourself.

Best reason to visit Dunhuang
The twin but very different attractions of the Mogao Caves and the Dunes make this remote destination particularly diverse and Dunhuang and essential stop along the Northern Silk Road route. The town itself is also a pleasant place to rest up for a couple of days.
