After recent snowfall, Dahong Mountain in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region revealed a landscape where silvery snow blanketed reddish Danxia landform, creating a dramatic visual contrast. Formed over billions of years by wind and water erosion, the iron-rich rock strata give the mountain its distinctive texture and color. With terrain resembling the surface of Mars, Dahong Mountain is often called a "mysterious Mars-like realm," offering a spectacular fusion of geological wonder and seasonal beauty.
