What's new

Winter wonderland in China, just beautiful

that's cruel.
In my days I used to look for any kind of excuse to miss school, especially weather.
If I had school as shown, my friends and me would've spent entire day making snowmen.:p:

@TaiShang beautiful pictures!
When the 2008 snow disaster was hitting China, I was at school...
But no excuse, because we all lived on campus, all roads were covered by snow or ice!

It sits on the border of Yunnan province and Tibet, where the three famous rivers, namely the Jinsha, Mekong (Nu) and Salwen (Lancang) flow.

The most splendid view is of the Kawagebo Peak, the highest in Yunnan Province rising about 6,740 meters (22,112.86 feet). It is still a virgin peak for no one has ever reached the top.

Gosh, my memory was triggered!
My hotel is right at this place!
I just lied on my balcony and stared at the mighty peaks!
The main peak, the goddess peak, the 5 fingers peak!

The fotos are beautiful. When it snows there this year?
 
Nice pictures

I wonder how Chinese houses are kept warm in winter? Do you have central heating powered by electricity, gas or hot water?

In Germany the winter is also approaching fast. We have at some places -10 C degree at night. Unusually cold at this time. No snow yet, but my car is prepared for a hard winter, should the streets be filled by meters of snow :cheesy:

We in China has a latitude line dividing North and South, in north, the government will provide gas since Nov., in South, we have no gas, steam, nothing. I forget the latitude degree, since I rarely care about that.
