Trees are festooned with rime in Jilin city. Rime is a special type of frost resembling granular tufts of ice. It only appears under certain conditions of temperature and humidity. Warm water vapor from a river meets cold air above, which creates the beautiful rime formation on nearby trees. The city's rime ice is known as one of the four meteorological wonders of China and is unique because it is thick and crystal clear. [Photo by Dong Yuxin/For gojilin.gov.cn]
