Kizil Thousand-Buddha Caves Travel Guide~

🌈Highlights: Only 6 caves are open to the public. The guide said there are more than 3,000 caves, but all the statues were taken by foreigners, so there are only paintings and caves left. It is now an archaeological site. 🕐️Opening hours: There are only 1,000 tickets available each day. The attraction closes at 19:00. You need to book tickets one day in advance. Most visitors are elderly people. I don't think it's very interesting. 🏝️Recommended route: I went there after visiting the Red Stone Forest. It is a 40-minute drive from the Red Stone Forest and 72 km from Kuqa. 💗Other tips: 1. Drones are not allowed. You need to leave your drone in the car. Drones are not allowed within 5 km of the attraction. 2. You need to store all your bags before entering the caves. Cameras are not allowed in the caves, but you can take your phone. 3. You are not allowed to record or take photos during the tour. You can only listen to the guide. I don't think it's very interesting. 4. The ticket price is about CNY 70. I bought a discounted ticket for CNY 35. The guide will take a group of 10 people into the caves.
