Heavy snowfall leaves spectacular sight in China

Snow has provided a spectacular sight for many people living in parts of China.

Rolling mountains and flowing rivers in China's northwest Shaanxi Province could be seen blanketed with the white stuff on New Year's Eve.

One resident, living in Guizhou Province, said: "It is so beautiful. We have not seen such heavy snow for many years. I am very excited. We especially come here to take photos."
