"Clear sky in Wan Li, blue sky in Wan Li, beautiful crescent spring." Crescent spring, known as manhole in ancient times and medicine spring in common name, is one of the eight scenic spots in Dunhuang. The crescent spring is nearly 100 meters long from north to south and about 25 meters wide from east to west. The spring is deep in the east and shallow in the west, with the deepest point of about 5 meters. Shaped like a crescent moon, hence the name. There are many poems and songs praising her in the world. She is like a jasper in the sky, falling into the world, rippling in golden sand dunes, water reflecting sand mountains and jade embedded in the vast desert. The breeze blew, and she made clear ripples, lingering with the gurgling sound of running water, like a beautiful girl singing her inner song. When the wind is blowing fiercely, she is swaying the dense reeds, swinging the gurgling sound of running water, quiet and clear, still rippling her inner feelings like a tough northwest man. When the moon is bright at night, the clear crescent spring and a clear spring complement each other with the moon, enjoying the rhythm of heaven and earth and the magic of nature. Crescent spring is sweet as a dream, clear as a dream, clear as a dream. For thousands of years, she has been with Mingsha Mountain, not submerged by quicksand or dried up by drought. The crescent moon is clear and blue as jade. "Yinshan is surrounded by sand, and a pool of water is green."
