Baima Snow Mountain

The Rhododendron woods in the Baima Snow Mountain are rated as one of the top ten beautiful forests in China by the magazine called Chinese National Geography.

The Baima Snow Mountain boasts the most complete vegetation spectrum in the alpine valleys. With nearly 90 azalea varieties, the Rhododendron trees can be as tall as 8 meters. The little azalea shrubs are as short as 0.3 m.

From May to July, the snow mountain sees annual azalea blooms in splendor. And the singing birds add glory to the charming sight.
