The immersive drama "Ancient Sound of Dunhuang" draws inspiration from the Mogao Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site boasting rich collections of Buddhist artworks, telling a story about a young man pursuing the true meaning of music. The dance, musical instruments, and even melodies the show presents all come from the murals. Four cultural plays "Ancient Sound of Dunhuang" "Encore Dunhuang" "Dunhuang Splendid Ceremony" and "Thousand-Armed, Thousand-Eyed" reflecting the history and culture of the famed Dunhuang City along the ancient Silk Road are staged in the city. The performances integrate Dunhuang's history, clothing culture, music culture as well as dance culture. As of Aug. 10, the four plays have been performed 1,175 times this year, attracting more than 660,000 person-time tourists both at home and abroad. (Xinhua
