Awestruck by the astronomical wonder, the locals shared photos of the phenomenon, also known as the 22-degree circular halo, on social media. The occurrence of an optical phenomenon resembling a ring with rainbow-like colours results from the deflection or refraction of the Sun's rays passing through hexagonal ice crystals found in cirrus clouds.
