Dunhuang Yardang National Geopark in China, including Yardang, desert and lake, is a typical large geological park in extreme arid region. The resources of geological relic in the park are typical and preserved systematically and integrally with diversity. They can be grouped into five categories, such as geological profile, geological structure, physiognomy landscape, water landscape and environmental geological relics. The physiognomy landscapes that are represented by yardang landscape, the Singing Sand Mountain and Crescent Moon Spring, the relics of the ancient Silk Road respected both at home and abroad, and human culture and historical resources like Dunhuang Mogao Caves are advantages of Dunhuang Yardang National Geopark. The yardang landscape in Dunhuang has special characteristics, such as diverse types, large density, significant alignment, various forms, and significant reflection of the formation and evolution of multiple stages. The implementation of geological resource survey is significant in protection of geological relics, research of geological science and popularization of geological science and other knowledge of natural sciences. Meanwhile, it plays active roles in promoting tourism industry in Dunhuang.
