Mogao may have the most elaborately painted buddhist caves on the silk road, but the ones in Mati Si are certainly the ones with the most specacular setting, and also the most adventurous ones. The caves can only be reached by a system of narrow tunnels and staircases carved inside the rock wall, and with plenty of tourists moving both ways, this is certainly nothing for the claustrophopic!
