Duolang Canyon, located deep in the Tianshan Mountains in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, recently saw a snowfall. Shrouded in mist in the precipitous canyon, the white snow and primeval forest composes a beautiful "oil painting.”

The forest, where pinewoods and various biological communities flourish, is a natural botanical garden.
