One legend holds that the official in charge asked the designer to calculate how many bricks would be used. The designer gave him the number and when the project was finished, only one brick was left. It was put on the top of the pass as a symbol of commemoration. Another account holds that the building project was assigned to a military manager and an architect. The architect presented the manager with a requisition for the total number of bricks that he would need. When the manager found out that the architect had not asked for any extra bricks, he demanded that the architect make some provision for unforeseen circumstances. The architect, taking this as an insult to his planning ability, added a single extra brick to the request. When the gate was finished, the single extra brick was, in fact, extra and was left on the ledge over the gate.<sup id="cite_ref-CNTOLEGEND_63-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CNTOLEGEND-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Mogao_Grottoes">Mogao Grottoes</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Gansu&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Mogao Grottoes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Mogao_Caves" title="Mogao Caves">Mogao Caves</a></div> <p>The Mogao Grottoes near <a href="/wiki/Dunhuang" title="Dunhuang">Dunhuang</a> have a collection of <a href="/wiki/Buddhism" title="Buddhism">Buddhist</a> art.
