Just As Oil And Water Don't Mix, So Do Springs And Deserts. But Crescent Spring Is An Exception. About 6 Kilometers (3.73 Miles) South Of Dunhuang City, And Surrounded By The Echoing-Sand Mountain, Crescent Spring Can Be Called A Natural Wonder In The Gobi Desert. Some Say It Reminds Them Of The Eye Of A Beautiful Woman, Lucid, Beautiful And Amorous. Some Say It Looks Like The Mysterious, Gentle And Seductive Lips Of A Pretty Woman, Or A Slice Of Lush, Sweet And Crystal Cantaloupe. Actually, It Resembles A Crescent Fallen Down Into This Desert. Having Been Lying Among These Sand Dunes For Thousands Of Years, Although Given Many Surprise Attacks By Sandstorms, Crescent Spring Still Gurgles Clear, And Still Remains Worthy As The First Spring In The Desert.
