On the morning of June 2, after steady rain swept through Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture in southwest China's Yunnan Province, a breathtaking scene unfolded over Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. Viewed from above, thick mist shrouded the mountain while the lake lay smooth as glass. Lush green landscapes traced the water's edge, and a rainbow arched over the mountain, creating a striking view that captured the region's enchanting natural beauty.
