Stunning nightscapes showcase Ningxia's celestial beauty

Recently, Qi Yingtao, a member of the China Photographers Association, captured stunning starry-sky photos at Helan Mountain National Forest Park in Ningxia Hui autonomous region. He combined the mountain's reflection in firefighting reservoirs with the starry sky to create a unique visual.

The park is home to the Helan Mountain Sleeping Buddha, one of China's top 10 natural sleeping-buddha landscapes. It resembles a lying elder and is popular online. Every year, photos of it go viral, prompting Qi to seek the best shooting spots and angles.
