As late autumn ushers in cooler temperatures, the forest in Shaanxi undergoes a breathtaking transformation. The leaves transition into vibrant shades of brown, gold, and red, creating scenes reminiscent of an oil painting. Nestled in the southern foothills of the Qinling Mountains, this forest is home to numerous rare and endangered species, including the elusive crested ibis.
To preserve this natural beauty and protect its inhabitants, extensive reforestation efforts have been implemented over the years. These initiatives aim to increase the forest cover of the local mountains and hills, providing a safe haven for wildlife and ensuring the sustainability of this picturesque ecosystem.
