Daping

To Daping is mainly to enjoy the scenery after the snow. Watching snow in Daping is very different from watching snow in Jinding. Jinding view of snow is standing on the top of the peak, with no attention from the hurdles, looking at the "Minshan snow"; while Daping view of snow is standing on the top of the isolated peak surrounded by the peaks, looking around the "red makeup and plain", bright and empty world.

Every time after the fog and snow, a kind of "rime" and "rime" rarely seen in other places often appear, turning the thousand branches of emerald trees on the peaks into jade trees and flowers, crystal clear and transparent, just like the "glass world". But when the sun shines, it is as if the jade is broken and the flowers are falling, and it is deep in the valley, just like the sound of gold and jade, sonorous and melodious.
