Sunset in the small city like a portrait in oil

In early winter, the small city of Zhucheng in Shandong province seems to be dyed into a romantic oil painting by the afterglow of the setting sun. The remnants of the sunset gild the clouds on the horizon, and the glow breaks through the nearby cloud layer, adding a certain depth to the otherwise dull sky. At the same time, the occasional cold wind and falling yellow leaves remind people that winter has approached. 

The sunset pierces through the clouds, draping a golden veil over the unevenly dispersed buildings and rolling hills. Above the Weihe River, the brilliant and colorful evening clouds embellish the sky, mirroring the quietly flowing river, creating a beautifully enchanting scene. As the sun gradually sets, the lights on the Dragon Tower light up, marking the start of the city's bustling nightlife. (Edited by Huang Junyao)
