A rare wave of rime ice has magically transformed the arid landscapes of north China's Inner Mongolia into a shimmering white wonderland, captivating visitors with a breathtaking winter spectacle.
Recent cold fronts sweeping the Ejina Banner of Alxa League brought a series of snowfalls to the sprawling populus euphratica forests, coating countless branches in delicate rime ice. Spanning 30,000 hectares, these ancient desert woodlands rise from the frozen ground, their branches coated in crystal-clear rime that glitters in the setting sun.
Rime ice, formed only when frigid temperatures meet abundant moisture, is a rare sight in Ejina Banner, where the arid climate brings less than 40 millimeters of annual rainfall. The stunning, captivating scenery has drawn crowds of travelers to witness this elusive natural artwork.
