又见敦煌

安之若素

<h3>敦煌古称‘沙洲’位于河西走廊最西端,自汉唐以来一直是丝绸之路的咽喉之地和中西交通要道。“敦者,大也;煌者,盛也”。</h3> <h3>现在,敦煌是甘肃省酒泉地区的一个县级市,城市不大,也不现代化,夏季的敦煌奇热无比。</h3><h3>到了敦煌,才真正感受到了“沙漠绿洲”这个描述的准确。敦煌市辖范围大多都是一眼望不到边的戈壁、沙漠,车行在茫茫沙地中间笔直的大道上,前后再见不到车辆、人影。觉得自己仿佛是在梦幻之中。</h3> <h3><br></h3><h3>玉门关,是汉朝西陲最重要的两关之一,是古代丝绸之路进入西域北路的必经之道,是中原进入西域的门户。西汉开国之初,历经多年的战乱,百废待兴,实力不如北边的匈奴,只好采取与匈奴和亲的策略得以休养生息。至汉武帝时国力强盛,汉朝开始对匈奴进行反击,派霍去病等将军西征,赶走匈奴势力,打通了河西走廊。为管理这些地区,设置武威、酒泉、张掖、敦煌河西四郡,并修建汉长城和玉门关、阳关,作为边防设施,距今已有两千多年历史。玉门关的得名,是因为丝绸之路贯通以后,商人往来不绝,西域于阗(今新疆和田)的美玉经此关进入中原,故名玉门关。</h3> <h3>黄河远上白云间,一片孤城万仞山。</h3><h3>羌笛何须怨杨柳,春风不度玉门关。</h3> <h3>月牙小镇重温童年的乐趣。</h3> <h3>西千佛洞因位于敦煌莫高窟(俗称千佛洞)之西而得名,是敦煌艺术和学术的重要组成部分。并且,西千佛洞的开凿时间还早于敦煌莫高窟,最晚也和莫高窟属于同一时期,因此具有很高的历史和文化价值。<span style="line-height:
