Breathtaking views of starry skies before sunrise and snow-capped mountain peaks illuminated by a golden sunrise at Meili Snow Mountain in Deqin county, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, southwest China’s Yunnan Province never fail to amaze visitors.
A photographer recently captured the stunning time-lapse images of the starry night skies and glowing snow-capped mountain peaks in the morning sun at the majestic Meili Snow Mountain, wowing viewers.
The pristine mountain peaks first shined under a clear glittering belt of stars before dawn. As daylight broke, the snow-capped summits began glowing like gold, bathing in the first rays of sunshine.
Since the opening of a new high-speed railway line linking Lijiang city in Yunnan Province and Shangri-la in Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture on Nov. 26, 2023, many tourists have flocked to Diqing by high-speed trains to enjoy the spectacle of Meili Snow Mountain.
