Abstract

As an important variant of Chinese classical religious architecture, compared with the Indian Ajanta Caves as its prototype, the Dunhuang Cave Temple has undergone considerable localization in the independent evolution of the millennium, which is reflected in the embodiment of the central tower and the The shape of the top of the bucket, the gradually decentralised traffic flow and the subject matter of the paintings. This paper attempts to analyze this from the perspective of typology combined with the shape and fresco style of some of the Mogao Grottoes, and further discusses some feasible measures for the protection of relevant cultural relics.
