The beautiful flowers, colorful leaves and streams in the forested areas of the Greater Hinggan Mountains in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province present a stunning view.

With a total area of 83,000 square kilometers and a forest coverage rate of 84.9 percent, the Greater Hinggan Mountains serve as a key ecological barrier in northeast China and the entire country. Every year from the middle of September, the foliage of different species of trees begins to display a variety of colors, as a result of changes in temperature and different solar radiation the trees receive.
