Today we are going to talk about the famous crescent spring in Mingsha Mountain. There are many desert activities, such as desert motorcycles, helicopters and camel riding. What to play, pay the corresponding fees, and choose for yourself. Crescent Moon Spring is one of the scenic spots. It is about 100 meters long from north to south, 25 meters wide from east to west, deep in the east and shallow in the west, and about 5 meters deep in the deepest part. Curved like a crescent moon, hence the name. It is a wonder in the vast desert and an oasis in the desert.

One morning in August this year, we took a tour bus from the city to the scenic spot, and it took us more than ten minutes. A group of people got off the bus and gathered at the gate of the scenic spot under the guidance of the little flag in the guide's hand. After getting the tickets, they entered the scenic spot one after another. When everyone saw the largest camel herd in China, they all rushed to take photos with them.

The tour guide gave everyone a number before entering the scenic spot. According to the number in his hand, a special person led him to the corresponding camel team. A group of five camels, tied back and forth with ropes, pedaled on the ground. When we went up and sat down, the camel worker gave a cry and five camels stood up in unison. The moment I got up, I felt like riding an electric horse when I was a child. Under the guidance of the camel driver, the camel followed the camel team all the way.

Camels trudged on the sand dunes, and the sun scorched the earth. We are all ready for sun protection. Although we still feel hot, our hearts are full of happiness and expectation. In the distance, a touch of green appeared. Camels seem to know what we are thinking. They speed up their steps and come to the dense forest. They see a thousand-year-old tree and a crescent moon, which is a crescent spring.

Crescent Spring is one of the outstanding natural landscapes in Dunhuang. It has been famous all over the world since ancient times (desert wonders) and is known as (one of the most beautiful things beyond the Great Wall).

At the same time, it also reflects on a problem for mankind. Will crescent spring disappear completely in the desert?
