Rime on Baishi Mountain, a winter-only fairy tale wonderland

At Baishi Mountain in Baoding, Hebei, the winter-exclusive scenic rime is quietly unfolding. The rime covers everything uniformly for thousands of miles, sculpting Baishi Mountain into a massive romantic art installation. On pine needles and cliffs, delicate crystalline ice flowers gently cling—not snow, but a dream suspended in the air, a perfect conspiracy of wind and temperature. Walking through it, time seems to slow down; the wind is silent in your ears, and your eyes catch the dazzling, fragmented light refracted by billions of ice crystals under the sunlight. Rime is a picky artist, requiring just the right humidity, wind speed, and temperature—each encounter is a generous gift from nature. Standing atop the mountain, watching the sea of clouds surge, jade trees and crystal branches stretch under the pure blue sky, a breathtaking sight that touches the heart. The beauty is fleeting but precious; when the warm sun rises, the ice crystals return to the sky, but that purity and shock remain frozen in the heart. As the weather cools, come to Baishi Mountain for a rime rendezvous and encounter ultimate romance!
