😍😍Nestled in Kucha city, #
Xinjiang#, the Kumutula Caves are a treasure trove of Buddhist art. Influenced by Tang Dynasty (618-907) styles, the murals and statues blend Gandhara, Qiuci (Kucha), Han Chinese and Uygur aesthetics. Remarkably, some cave inscriptions feature donors' names in Chinese, Uygur and Qiuci scripts, reflecting a rich cultural exchange. #
