They were clearly visible, set against blue skies and white clouds, with blue mist enveloping the entire mountain - it was a breathtaking view like a painting! Along the way, our guide had us line up in a row and shout toward the valley. Our unified, loud voices echoed throughout the valley, making it feel like we were in a fairy tale wonderland.
