On November 19, after a light snowfall, the Laojun Mountain Scenic Area in Luoyang, Henan Province was dusted in a blanket of “silver.” The charm of the mountain peaks and trees all covered in snow, set against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds, conjured up a dreamlike scene – like a fairyland in some heavenly palace – sparkling and translucent, making tourists linger with little thought of ever leaving.
