Stunning seas of gingko trees and clouds in Yunnan Province have attracted many tourists and photographers. 

Leaves of over 30,000 ginkgo trees in Jiangdong Village, Tengchong City, have turned resplendent in the sunlight. The oldest ginkgo tree in the village is more than 1,300 years old, and several hundred other trees are older than 500 years.

About 700 kilometers away, a majestic cloud sea has flooded into Jiangcheng Hani and Yi Autonomous County. The thin floating clouds have engulfed the low lying villages and are lapping at the slopes of mountains. Around 666.7 hectares of pine forests have added a soft halo to the mountains.
