Beautiful Winter
Although the peak season is from March 16th to November 15th, winter is called the most beautiful season in Huangshan Mountain by tourists. The winter in Huangshan Mountain is relatively long, and it will snow around the end of October every year. It snows all over the mountain from November to March of the following year, and December to February of the following year is the most snowy period, which is also the best season for winter travel.
In short, you can see the snow scene in late October. Even if it doesn't snow, you can see the beautiful "rime" (also known as fog hanging). Like snow, it coats trees, rocks and houses with a layer of crystal white, and it is whiter, more transparent and more magnificent than snow, so it is more charming.
Winter is the season with the most sea of clouds, and sometimes the sea of clouds can last for three days. However, it should be noted that Tiandufeng and Baiyun Stream closed the mountain at this time.
