CHINA-HERITAGE-TECHNOLOGY-ART


To go with AFP story China-heritage-technology-art,FEATURE by Sebastien Blanc

In a photo taken on May 13, 2013 technicians use a large flash light to photograph paintings on the wall of the Mogao caves in Dunhuang, northwestern China's Gansu province. From the fourth century onwards the 492 largely hand-dug caves near Dunhuang, a desert oasis and crossroads on the Silk Road, acted as a depository for Buddhist art for around a millennium. But their unique appeal is the very thing that is putting them under threat, with every visitor's entrance, body and breathing altering the delicate environmental balance inside the chambers.
