Drone footage captured tourists visiting a sea of pink muhly grass in central China.

Video of the muhlenbergia capillaris, also known as hairawn muhly, was captured in the city of Sanmenxia in Henan Province on October 3.

The clip shows tourists walking and taking pictures in the fields of the clump-forming grass.

According to the filmer, the fields were previously used to plant crops like corns and wheat.

The farmers then bought the seeds of the muhlenbergia capillaris in April last year and planted them.
