The Aksu region of Xinjiang preserves the thousand-year legacy of ancient Kucha. Among its treasures, the Kizil Caves, with their exquisite murals and distinctive artistic style, stand as a symbol of Kucha culture and are even hailed as “China’s Second Dunhuang.”
On the cave walls, the Buddha’s compassion as he offers himself to a hungry tiger mingles with scenes of everyday life in ancient Kucha: people urging camels onward with their whips and the sound of pipa music lingering in the air. Together, they carve the secrets of Silk Road civilization into the folds of the Gobi, stroke by stroke.
Yet the ravages of early foreign expeditions and the erosion of the natural environment have caused these brilliant colors to peel away, inch by inch, turning them into the dust of history.
The “doctor of murals” devotes a lifetime to a single calling, using painstaking craftsmanship to mend the cracks left by time. Thus, the murals regain their splendor, and these treasures of civilization endure for generations.
