As the altitude gradually increased, the scenery along the way underwent a dramatic change.
The verdant plains were gradually replaced by the yellow-green of alpine meadows, where low bushes intertwined with tall spruce and fir trees, exposing naked rock faces with varying shades of gray-brown.
The stream beside the road was crystal clear, its waters rushing swiftly, hitting rocks with a "swoosh" sound.
Occasionally, herds of yaks could be seen grazing on the meadows, their large bodies covered in dense fur, their black and white forms starkly visible against the yellow-green meadows.
In the distance, the snow-capped mountains were faintly visible, their peaks covered in pristine white snow, reflecting dazzling sunlight.
This was a scene they had never before seen in Bin Hai, its awe-inspiring nature comparable to discovering a new world.
