On the evening of May 23, a rare phenomenon of a “sunset rainbow” appeared in the Mengwushiweisu village of Eerguna City, Hulun Buir, Inner Mongolia, lasting for about 50 minutes. The picturesque scene left local residents and tourists in awe.
According to Up Guan News, as the sun slowly descended towards the horizon that evening, the rainbow in the sky intertwined with the sunset glow, creating a dazzling rainbow halo.

In recent times, various “omens” have emerged in different parts of mainland China, sparking discussions among the public.
On the night of May 16, an unidentified flying object appeared in the night sky of Urumqi, Xinjiang. Several eyewitnesses described the object as divided into two fan-shaped parts with a clear dividing line in the middle, moving at varying speeds and shining as brightly as the moon.
Although Urumqi, Altay, and Ili are hundreds of kilometers apart, netizens from these three places reported discovering the unidentified flying object within just minutes of each other.
This marks the third recent occurrence in Xinjiang where unidentified luminous objects have been spotted flying in the sky.
On May 6, hundreds of white flashing points suddenly appeared in the sky over Urumqi, moving and flickering constantly before disappearing after some time. Many netizens captured this phenomenon on camera. On April 12, several Xinjiang netizens also shared videos of a spherical unidentified flying object passing through the night sky.
On the evening of May 9, after experiencing rainy weather, netizens in Jinan, Shandong, shared photos of the sky turning purple (or red) on social media, with some citizens calling it “the arrival of auspicious purple energy,” attracting attention.
On April 21, a netizen uploaded a video claiming that a strange phenomenon of two suns appeared in the sky in Chengdu, Sichuan, lasting for about 7 to 8 minutes. The video caused a stir online.
According to “Sichuan Observer,” witnesses reported that the sun appeared extremely red that day. As it neared the clouds, it gradually “split” into two, maintaining a partially overlapping state even after exiting the clouds, lasting for a total of seven to eight minutes, a process visible to the naked eye.
