敦煌白马塔

敦煌白马塔位于一片了绿洲之中，是专门修建为了纪念高僧死去的白马，设计者采用的是明代时期喇嘛庙的建筑风格，极具代表性，有极高的历史科研价值。

敦煌白马塔 塔建于公元386年，为纪念一匹死去的白马。相传北凉时这匹白马陪伴高僧鸠摩罗什东传佛教，路经敦煌城，死于斯…… （2011年10月拍）

包车走敦煌西线~坑爹的司机问我们要不要去白马塔，也不给我们说一下里面到底有没有看头。大热的下午进去一看，就孤零零的一个塔立在那里，就连里面卖东西的人都无精打采的，估计见到我们很是惊讶。努力安慰这个塔好歹也是鸠摩罗什为他的马建的不是~唉，但还是真的是不建议去这里。

前不久我们去了敦煌,预计行程中有一天是要去白马塔的,在车上师傅就提前跟我们打招呼说白马塔有时候是不开的.等我们到了那,还真没人售票,大门有点破,是虚掩着,我们透过门缝往里面看了半天,最终决定还是不进去了(本来是想等售票员出现买票进去看看的)只在门口留下到此一游的照片.

根本不值得买票，直接从后面小铁门就可以进去……其实根本不值得去看……倒是旁边村子里的小孩子们很可爱，对人十分亲切。

在白马塔下看天空，湛蓝湛蓝，真的感觉非常好。边上就是居民区，总有一种时空交错的感觉，其实在敦煌，这种感觉一直在弥漫。敦煌是一个要去的地方，是扎根心底的归依，国人都应该来看看

前段时间去了敦煌白马塔，感觉确实不错，景色优美。从远处看去白马塔矗立在那边，笔直，壮观，尤其是在有阳光从反面照耀的时候，确实壮观，让人流连忘返，改天有机会的话，还要过去，一睹塔的尊容。

位于去阳关的路上，刚出城区。没有什么特色，很小的院落里有一个白塔，就是个省级保护建筑和景点。白塔除白颜色外，也没有什么建筑特色。景点也只是因名而有。很小的院落里有两排以地摊形式出现的卖旅游产品的商贩，和敦煌其他景点的没有什么区别。

You can walk to the pagoda from the city in about fifteen minutes. The pagoda itself isn't much to see, as it's not one you can go inside. But, if you go there, walking around the village where it's located is interesting. You can see typical village houses and life.

We rented bikes and went to look for the pagoda, it was closed that day, but the neighborhood is pleasant, dirt road streets with small farm/houses out of the center of town....will be gone a in a few years

The White Horse Pagoda requires a RMB 15 ticket. There is nothing in there except for the pagoda, which has 9 levels, 12-metre tall, and a 7-metre diameter. The pagoda you see was built about 170 years ago during the Qing dynasty. The original White Horse Pagoda was built about 1600 years ago, after a then-famous Buddhist monk returned from the west and his horse, which took him all the way across the harsh desert, died as he entered Dunhuang. There are only 2 reasons you would come to this site: 1) You're determined to hit all the possible sightseeing places in Dunhuang, perhaps because it's your 3rd or 4th trip here. Or 2) you're returning to the city after a day visiting the sites to the far west of Dunhuang (eg. Yadan geological park, Yumen Pass, etc.) The pagoda is located just 2km west of Dunhuang city, so if you're passing through anyway you might wish to stop by and take a look. Either way, you can decide for yourself whether it's worthwhile according to your travel purposes.

cuando nos llevaron a ver esta pequena pagoda me dio la sensacion que era una visita de relleno,no es ni grande,ni importante.Lo unico curioso es la historia relativa a sla construccion en honor a un caballo,fiel companero de su dueno,un monke budista
