Amazed by the fairytale-like beauty of Y Ty during the cloud season.

In the early days of the new year, temperatures in Y Ty commune dropped sharply. Low temperatures at night and slightly higher temperatures during the day, coupled with light rain, created ideal conditions for thick, fluffy clouds to envelop the highland villages, giving Y Ty a fairytale-like beauty.

In Y Ty, during winter, the sun usually rises later than in the lower regions. As dawn breaks, mist permeates the land and sky, creating "rivers of clouds" and "seas of clouds" with a dreamy beauty.

During long, cold days accompanied by drizzle, when sunlight shines down, water evaporates and condenses into thick clouds.
