Heavy snowfall blanketed the colossal sandstone spires of China’s Zhangjiajie National Forest Park on January 24, creating a dramatic wintry scene for visitors.

Video published by the Zhangjiajie Tourism Weibo account shows the gorgeous scene as seen from the park’s gondola.

A week of snowy weather was expected to affect Hunan province, peaking with blizzard conditions on the weekend, a local weather bureau said.
