Jiuquan

We had arrived in Jiuquan late last night and visited the Night Market. Life on the road is fun; however we are all tired after feeling the effects of staying in a different hotel every night. This morning we visited Wine Spring Park, a famous site of the West Han Dynasty.


We also visited the Luminous Cup Factory of Jiuquan. The cups are made from Qilianshan Jade and were first produced more than 2,000 years ago.


It takes a high level of skill to make the cups
