The valley is gradually dyed with layers of forest, with yellow and red trees dotted in the verdant forest, like colorful decorations on a Christmas tree; the grass sea on the top of the mountain is yellow, and looking from Baizao Mountain to Fairy Peak, the endless mountains are like golden ocean waves, undulating and charming in the evening sun.
