Hengshan Mountain in Hunan province transformed into a glistening winter paradise this past weekend, with spectacular rime scenery drawing visitors after a recent snowfall.
This renowned mountain, also known as Nanyue, frequently showcases trees adorned with crystal ice formations created by the combination of low temperatures and high humidity.
Known as the "Nanyue rime", this phenomenon typically occurs between November and March, gracing the landscape for an average of 63 days each winter season.
This winter spectacle has inspired many poets and artists throughout history.
