The level of the lake is like a mirror, and the ice waterfall hangs in front of the river.
In the cold wind, the swimmers cut through the waves and fought bravely to be the first, disturbing the tranquility of the pool.
On the shore, photographers and tourists from the Mudanjiang area cheered for the athletes from time to time.
