Nature just dropped its latest winter collection 🧊! Mount Fanjing, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in China's Guizhou Province, became a real-life snow globe earlier this week after heavy snowfall transformed its peaks into a crystalline wonderland.
Early risers on January 6 witnessed pure magic as sunrise painted the frost-covered slopes with golden light. The combination of glittering rime ice formations and dawn's warm glow created scenes straight out of a fantasy novel – perfect for both #NatureLovers and Instagram poets 📸.
Why It's Cool (Literally)
This ecological treasure, home to rare species and ancient Buddhist temples, shows its most dramatic face in winter. Tourism officials report a 40% spike in winter visitors since 2023 as more travelers seek frosty adventures.
"It's like walking through frozen champagne bubbles," said Singaporean traveler Li Wei, 24, who braved the -5°C weather for sunrise photos.
Plan Your Trip
Pro tip: The mountain's cable cars now feature heated seats ❄️🔥, making the ascent cozy. Local guides recommend microspikes for hiking and booking eco-lodges in advance through official park apps.
