A Power BI Dashboard is like a canvas that is used to tell a story. It presents the most important data points in various elements within one single page.
It is an entry to the reports that are based on the dataset. Well-designed dashboards contain only important points of the data story. If you select or click a particular tile (snapshot of data), it will take you to the main report from where it is taken.
