"Xi Shan Qing Xue" (Chinese: 西山晴雪): West Hills after Snow
To find the spot at Fragrant Hills Park one must turn northwards after reaching the Halfway Pavilion and then climb upwards past the Cave Facing the Sun (Chaoyangdong). Here on a winter day, as the weather clears after a fresh snowfall, the glittering silver mantle covering the numerous jutting peaks seems to stretch away boundlessly, offering a spectacle of great beauty. Today some people believe that the "snow" is in fact peach blossoms.
