This phenomenon occurs due to the effect of the atmosphere. When temperatures rise, areas near the Sun often show hot air and cold air intersecting. Hot air filled with steam rose above the cold air and flew up into the sky. When the steam in the sky meets low temperature, it condenses into hexagonal prismatic ice crystals. When the sun shines on these flat crystals, it is strongly refracted to form a full-color rainbow-like circle around the Sun.
