(Translated by Google) There is a long way to go from the entrance of the scenic spot to the grottoes, but the scenery along the way is so good that no one minded. Many poplar trees have changed their colors, and the autumn mood is strong. Everyone had a great time taking pictures along the way. The management of the scenic spot is very poor, even if someone criticizes it, it will not be ignored, causing chaos. Large cameras and backpacks are not allowed in the grotto, and these items must be placed in lockers in the scenic area. In order to protect the historical sites, only six grottoes are open in the scenic area, so you have to queue up again, alas... The Kizil Grottoes were built from the 3rd century AD to the 8th to 9th century AD. They are the earliest large-scale grottoes excavated in China. Together with the Mogao Grottoes in Gansu, the Yungang Grottoes in Datong, Shanxi, and the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang, Henan, they are also known as one of the four largest grottoes in China. Big grotto. The most special thing among them is that the murals here have the shape of male flying apsaras. Maybe in the impression of thick-browed people, flying apsaras must be female, so it feels weird. The themes of the murals are mainly various deeds related to Sakyamuni, including life stories, karma stories and Buddhist stories.

(Translated by Google) The Thousand Buddha Caves, located approximately 65 kilometers from Kucha, are an early example of Chinese Buddhism. It is one of the four major Buddhist grottoes in China. There are approximately 260 confirmed grottoes, and if you include unconfirmed ones, the number is said to exceed 300. With the exception of cell phones, all photography equipment is prohibited and must be left in the park storage area or in your vehicle. The distance from the entrance to the Thousand Buddha Caves is approximately 1 kilometer. A shuttle is available. It's extremely hot, so we highly recommend taking the shuttle. Upon arriving at the Thousand Buddha Caves, you'll see a statue of Monk Kumarajiva, a native of the Qujiao Kingdom who brought Buddhist scriptures from India and first translated them. The phrases "Sexuality, emptiness, and color," "Avalokitesvara," etc. When entering the Thousand Buddha Caves, groups of approximately eight people are assigned to the gate. Many of the cave paintings that were revealed were stolen by grave robbers, and the Berlin Museum of Indian Art in Germany now reportedly owns a large collection of Kizil Caves murals. The style of the murals is distinctly Indian, unlike any other cave I've seen before. There's a shop and restroom at the shuttle bus terminal. (Original) 쿠처에서 약 65키로 떨어진 중국 불교 초기의 천불동 석굴. 중국의 4대 불교석굴 중 하나이다. 확인된 석굴만 260여개,미확인된것 까지 하면 300개가 넘는다고한다. 입장시 핸드폰을 제외한 모든 촬영장비는 가지고 들어갈 수 없으며 공원내 보관소나 타고온 차에 두고가야한다. 입구에서 천불동까지는 대략 1키로 즈음 되는데 셔틀을 탈수 있다. 엄청 뜨거우니 꼭 타시기를 추천한다. 천불동에 도착하면 구저국 출신으로 인도에서 불경을 가져와 최초로 번역을 한 쿠마라지마 스님 동상이 있다. 색증시공 공즉시색, 관세음보살 등등.. 천불동 입장할때는 게이트에서 대략 8명정도를 한 그룹으로 보낸다. 공개된 동굴내 벽화는 도굴꾼들에게 뜯겨나간 것들이 많았고, 지금은 독일의 베를린인도예술박물관이 키질석굴 벽화를 다량 소유하고 있다고 한다. 벽화의 양식은 기존에 봤던 석굴들과 달리 굉장히 인도풍이다. 셔틀 종점에 매점, 화장실이 있다.
(Translated by Google) The Buddhist ruins belonged to the Quy Tu kingdom for 2 thousand years. Looking at the remaining features gives the feeling of a prosperous time of the Buddha country. Most notably, the statue of Kumarajiva in front of the stone cave is very beautiful and charismatic. 1 hour and 30 minutes by car from Kho Xa city center.
