Peak of winter
Emei Mountain offers spectacular views year-round. But the colder season conjures a special allure, as Huang Zhiling discovers in Emei, Sichuan.
Snow is front-page news in Sichuan's provincial capital, Chengdu, which rarely experiences flurries. So, locals were overjoyed when snowflakes appeared in the cityscape in late December. They snapped photos and posted them on social media.
An ancient Chinese belief holds snow heralds bumper harvests.
