The frescoes at Dunhuang are a vivid reflection of the Buddhist culture existing in this area at the time of their creation. This site also provides a fascinating insight into Tibetan Buddhism, Han Buddhism and Taoism.

Located in Baisha Township, 8km north of the seat of the Lijiang Naxi Nationality Autonomous County, there are 53 fresco groups located in the hall. As one of the settlements built by the Naxi ancestors, Baisha is considered to be the birthplace of Naxi culture as well as the capital of the Ancient Naxi Kingdom. These interesting frescoes here made around 500 years ago, representing the local culture as a combination of Han and Tibetan cultures.

These mural paintings, with their fine and smooth lines, bright colors, vivid pattern and balanced and harmonious composition are a wonderful sight. These frescoes are only crucial to the history of Chinese painting, but are important cultural heritage relics too.
