Thanks to the heavy fog during the previous night, trees such as willows, pines, cypresses and old elms that line the bank of the Songhua River, were all a silvery white on the morning of January 12, 2015.

When a bunch of tourists came to get a look at the area in the early morning, they saw a dream-like wonderland stretching along the banks as far as they could see.
