The Silk Road Dunhuang Hotel is founded in
1995.  Situated
against the backdrop of the picturesque Mingsha Sand Dunes.
The hotel captures the spirit of the Tang Dynasty with
its unique architectural design - the large rooftops and
long corridors of the Han and Tang dynasties; the typical
enclosed courtyard style design and mud walls of the northwestern
part of China; and the replica of the late Tang, Ming
and Qing dynasties furniture. All these work together
to recapture the flavour of a bygone era with their simplicity
and use of natural building materials.
To journey through the fabled Silk Road and experience
China's ancient culture could have been your dream.
Now, this dream can be realized with the completion
of the Silk Road Dunhuang Hotel. It combines modern
facilities together with a touch of classical architectural
design to provide comfortable accommodation to Silk
Road travelers.
Once a prosperous trading centre along the Silk Road
and with a history of more than 2,000 years, Dunhuang
played a crucial role in ancient China. Its relics and
ancient artifacts have made the ancient city become
one of the well-known tourist spots in China.
