Technology shows Mogao Caves in a new light

During the exhibition, the museum will invite scholars and researchers to lecture about Dunhuang art every other weekend. A series of workshop activities are held each weekend, enabling participants to try their hand at painting on rocks and making copies of the frescoes.

The exhibition was a highlight of the Shanghai Tourism Festival, which concluded on Sunday. Several tourism companies and airlines joined the exhibition to introduce travel deals between Shanghai and Gansu, as well as other northwestern destinations in China.

Shanghai's jewelry brand Lao Fengxiang also launched gold ornaments featuring some of the most celebrated Dunhuang relics.
