Explore Baoding | Baili Gorge — Winter Snow Is the Most Enchanting

Winter in Yesanpo

Though it makes you shiver with cold,

Unveils scenery so stunning it takes your breath away.

Yesanpo’s Baili Gorge,

Especially after snow,

Instantly transforms into an ice- and snow-covered fairy-tale canyon.

The mountains return to silence, glaciers blanket the ground, pines whisper in the empty valley,

Jade-like trees with crystal branches, glistening and translucent —

It’s just impossibly beautiful.

Come and see it for yourself!

Snow blows against the face, intoxicating, yet no cold is felt.

- Baili Gorge -

Unlike visiting Baili Gorge in spring or summer,

In the canyon, the once-lush green mountains and clear waters

Have been stripped of color by harsh winter,

Leaving a somewhat bleak and chilly feel.

But if you haven’t experienced

Baili Gorge after snow,

You haven’t truly been to Baili Gorge.

I think one phrase best captures its beauty:

“The gorge is a marvel in all seasons, but winter snow is the most enchanting.”

At this moment, Baili Gorge becomes a dazzling stage,

Flying snow the grandest of makeup,

The trees in the canyon transform

Into bizarre peaks and rocks,

A magnificent “gauze-like fairy dress.”

Together they put on

A winter spectacle unique to Baili Gorge.

In this winter tale,

Snow and ice spread across the land,

Everything draped in silver.

Sunlight adds color here,

As valley winds sweep through, kicking up puffs of snowy mist

Like fairy garments fluttering in the breeze.

Under the snowy adornment,

Winter Yesanpo becomes

A dreamy fairy-tale world.

Thrilling human-and-wolf dances,

Exotic performances,

Dynamic snow tanks —

Let’s reap more joy

In this snowy realm.

Snowflakes dance lightly through the gorge,

Dressing Baili Gorge in a world of white.

White snow and verdant trees,

Bizarrely shaped rocks,

Exciting recreational facilities,

Enchanting performances

Cleverly and perfectly blend together,

Complementing each other in stunning beauty.

Glittering silver shavings nestle on the trees,

Embroidering all kinds of icy flower patterns;

Flowers, grass and trees all over the mountains

Look like silver branches and jade leaves.

At this time, Baili Gorge

Becomes a pure silver-clad world,

Standing proudly here.
