Autumn Travel Guide to Changbai Mountain: As Beautiful as Kanas Lake
🍁When it comes to autumn scenery, people will think of the golden autumn of Kanas Lake at the first time. However, the autumn of Changbai Mountain is full of colorful autumn leaves, intense, romantic, distant, and mellow. You can take photos at will, and the photos will be full of warmth and nostalgia. 📷
🍁If the winter Changbai Mountain is a white fairy tale, then the autumn Changbai Mountain must be a color palette knocked over by Zhang Qiling. ❗️It is the vast white clouds and black soil.❗️It is the colorful forests.❗️It is the refreshing and dry air at 16 degrees.❗️It is the taste of fallen leaves mixed with soil and grass.❗️Come here, you won't regret it! So I must write an autumn travel guide to Changbai Mountain! (I talk a lot 🤦♂️)
⏰Autumn Viewing Time
Every year from late September to mid-October, only 2-3 weeks. If you go too early, the trees will not be dyed by nature. If you go too late, the leaves will have fallen. If you choose the right time, your autumn viewing trip will be half successful. Although the title of this note is the National Day Autumn Viewing Guide, if you avoid the National Day Golden Week, there will be fewer people and you will save money.
——
🚅Transportation: Airplane✈️+High-speed Rail🚅+Self-driving
Changbai Mountain Airport is closer to the west slope. Friends from Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, and Beijing can fly directly to the airport.
——
🎫Tickets: Book in advance on Xiaochengxu seven days in advance. You will know it when you check.
——
🧥Clothing:
Changbai Mountain has "four seasons in one mountain, different weather every ten miles". Therefore, the temperature from the foot of the mountain to the mountain is naturally different. You should add or remove clothes according to the temperature. Take the north slope as an example, it can be divided into three temperatures.
☀️Foot of Changbai Mountain | Erdaobaihe Town
5-20 degrees, cool in the morning and evening, hot at noon. Thin coat, long sleeves and trousers.
☀️Changbai Mountain Waterfall
A little colder than the foot of the mountain. Wear a coat and you won't feel hot. Take off your coat and you won't feel cold.
☀️Changbai Mountain Main Peak | Tianchi
Unpredictable weather. On a sunny day, wear a windbreaker, a thick coat, long sleeves, and trousers.
Rainy, windy, foggy, long sleeves, trousers (fleece trousers), thicker coat/fleece windbreaker/thin down jacket
——
🧥Clothing Color
The overall color of Changbai Mountain in autumn is yellow and red, with a small amount of green and brown. 🌾🌿🍂🍁
Sisters can choose clothes in the Maillard color system, which not only has the autumn atmosphere but also will not clash with the environment. 🍂
There may be dew in the morning and evening. It is best to choose clothes with waterproof fabrics.
📷Tianchi photos are not picky about clothing colors. Even if it is the same blue as the Tianchi water, it will not make the person look inconspicuous. It looks good no matter how you take it! (As long as you can see the moon🌝)
🕶Sunglasses must be brought! Sunglasses are a must-have item for taking photos!
——
🏠Accommodation
1. Stay in Erdaobaihe Town: The advantage is that there are hotels of all levels and you can visit the town's attractions. It is cost-effective. The disadvantage is that there are no super authentic hot spring hotels and no VIP channels. (Recommended for college students and young people to save money💰!)
2. Stay in a mountainside hotel: The advantage is that you can soak in real direct hot springs♨️, there are VIP channels, and the overall service experience is better. The disadvantage is that it is a little more expensive than town hotels. Suitable for families with children/elderly, sisters who want to take beautiful hot spring photos👙, it will be easier to relax~If you have a sufficient budget, go for it!

Erdaobaihe Town: A hidden gem you must visit when you go to Changbai Mountain.
Erdaobaihe Town, Changbai Mountain: A hidden gem you must visit when you go to Changbai Mountain. Saved successfully. Please check your album.
.
Erdaobaihe Town is located on the north slope of Changbai Mountain, bordering North Korea to the southeast. It is only 34 km from the core scenic area of Changbai Mountain and is the gateway to Changbai Mountain. It is known as the "First Town Under Changbai Mountain."
.
The town is located on both sides of the Erdaobaihe River, which flows directly from the Changbai Mountain Waterfall, hence the name "Erdaobaihe." In 1983, the town was renamed "Erdao" to avoid confusion with the river.
.
Most tourists visiting Changbai Mountain choose to climb from the north slope, and Erdaobaihe Town at the foot of the mountain is a must-pass. However, it is generally only used as a stopover.
.
In fact, this small town has many charming sights that are worth exploring. Starting in October each year, the town is covered in snow.

Northeast China is the best place to visit in winter. Here's a 7-day itinerary.
Visit the northeast in one trip!
Last year, I finally completed my long-awaited winter trip to the northeast.
If you want to visit Harbin, Snow Town, Changbai Mountain, Snow Ridge, and Yanji, check out this 7-day itinerary✍🏻
🕷️My itinerary:
❶: Harbin—St. Sophia Cathedral⛪—Central Street—Yabuli
❷: Yabuli—Datouzi Mountain—Ice and Snow Gallery—Snow Town
❸: Snow Town—Rime Road—Erdaobaihe❄️
❹: Changbai Mountain—Heaven Lake—Underground Forest
❺: Changbai Mountain—Rafting—Snow Ridge🦌—Yanji
❻: Water Market—Folk Park—Yanji Internet-famous Wall✨
❼: China-North Korea Border—Tumen
🌟Travel tips:
[One] St. Sophia Cathedral is most beautiful when the lights are turned on at around 4 pm. If there are too many people, you can find a spot nearby and take a photo from below.
[Two] Just take a stroll along Central Street. Other expenses are relatively high.
[Three] The best place to take photos📸 in Snow Town is the wooden walkway halfway up the mountain. I recommend staying overnight to take it easy. Prices are reasonable.
[Four] The opening of Heaven Lake on Changbai Mountain is affected by the weather. If it snows, it is likely to be closed. Check the notice in advance to avoid a wasted trip.
[Five] There is rafting on both the north and west slopes of Changbai Mountain. Check in advance which side has snow. It is only beautiful when there is rime! Board the boat before 7 am for good lighting and a high chance of seeing rime.
[Six] I highly recommend Snow Ridge near Changbai Mountain! ❄️ Rime-covered mountains and small wooden houses are so dreamy! You can also feed reindeer🦌.
[Seven] Your phone may shut down due to the cold. You can stick a hand warmer on the back. If you take your camera📷 indoors from outside, don't take it out immediately to avoid fogging.
[Eight] You don't have to go to Mohe to throw water to make ice. Just prepare a large thermos. You can do it anywhere cold.

Changbai Mountain–Yanji 4D3N: Private Car or Free Travel? Check Out My Guide!
Hey guys, winter is here! Are you ready to go skiing, soak in hot springs, and enjoy the snow at Changbai Mountain? 🏂🛁❄️ Plus, the food in Yanji is so tempting, it's the perfect winter combination! But are you struggling with whether to rent a car for this 4D3N trip? Don't worry, let me give you some tips! 😉
First of all, time is precious! If you have about 4 days, choose the classic Changbai Mountain–Yanji route! 👇
🌟Day 1: First Experience of Changbai Mountain
Get off the plane or train and head straight to Erdaobaihe Town, where there are plenty of places to eat, cheap accommodation, and you can visit the visitor center. Then, go to the Changbai Mountain North Gate Tianchi Scenic Area for a full day of fun. Remember to leave early, as Tianchi is most beautiful in the morning! 🌄
🌟Day 2: Skiing & Hot Springs, Double the Fun
On the second day, go to Wusong Drift to experience the ice and snow, then go skiing and soak in hot springs at Wanda or Luneng Resort. It's amazing! 🎿♨️ Stay at the resort overnight and enjoy a quiet night!
🌟Day 3: Reindeer & Yanji Food, All in One
On the third day, head to Lao Li Ke Lake or Xueling from the resort to get up close and personal with reindeer, then head to Yanji, check out the internet-famous wall and Yanji University, and try the local food in the evening. It's perfect! 🦌🍴
🌟Day 4: Yanji Morning Market & Folk Park, Return with a Full Load
On the last day, don't forget to visit the Yanji Morning Market to experience local life, then go to the Folk Park to experience Korean culture, and then you can return with a full load! 🛍️🎎
So, what about taking a taxi or renting a car? In fact, it's easy to take a taxi from Changbai Mountain Airport and the station to Erdaobaihe Town, and there are taxis in the town. However, the distance from the resort to Lao Li Ke Lake or Xueling is relatively far, about 200 km, so renting a car is more convenient. Also, if you want to save time and effort, you can consider joining a small group tour, with a private car for the whole trip, and cheap tickets and hotels. It's a great deal! 🚗💰
So, choose according to your budget and travel preferences! Whether you rent a car or travel freely, you can have a great time! 🎉

1. Clothing guide
The temperature in Northeast China is extremely low in winter, and the wind is very strong, so it is bone-chillingly cold. Therefore, you must choose warm clothes and shoes. Down jackets and hoodies are essential, and you should also wear cotton clothes inside.
At the same time, you need to prepare warm hats, gloves, scarves, and wool boots. If you don't prepare the right clothes, it will not only affect the quality of your trip but also damage your health. Choosing good quality clothes is a wise choice.
2. Transportation
Northeast China is vast, so if you want to travel across provinces, it is recommended to travel from south to north, from warm to cold, and gradually adapt to the changes in temperature and environment. If you choose to drive to the northeast, you must be careful. Due to icy roads, poor visibility, slippery roads, slow driving speed, and no regular snow removal, driving is risky. Relatively speaking, choosing high-speed rail or air travel is a safer and smarter choice. Whether you book a flight or train ticket when you leave your hometown, booking early to get a lower price is a smart decision. For public transportation at your destination, choose convenient, fast, and safe options such as subways and buses.

💕I wish you a pleasant trip to the northeast~

Yanji + Changbai Mountain|Lazy Guide to Eating, Drinking, and Playing
Changbai Mountain from June to August is considered the most comfortable season of the year, with an average pleasant temperature of 22℃ attracting many tourists. Embark on a wonderful journey to Yanji and Changbai Mountain, where you can enjoy delicious food in Yanji and escape the heat while admiring Tianchi in Changbai Mountain. One trip, double experience. Please accept this guide to Yanji + Changbai Mountain, covering food, accommodation, and transportation.
First, let's talk about the route planning. It is recommended to arrive in Yanji first. Yanji is small, and accommodation choices are flexible. The area around Yanji University is lively but the accommodation environment is average. For better environment, consider Hongju Hotel, which is close to the airport.
In Yanji, you can play like this. The Water Market is full of Korean ethnic atmosphere, with early market hours from 5:30 to 8:00. The Folk Park is suitable for taking photos, Mao'er Mountain Park is good for sightseeing, and People's Park is suitable for strolling. If you have kids, you can go to Dinosaur Kingdom Amusement Park, where the stage play "Flowers Never Fade" and the Dinosaur Museum are both good. Yanji University's popular bullet screen wall is a must-visit spot. For leisure, you can go to Liangtian Baishi Scenic Area.
For shopping, go to the West Market for specialties, Women's World for clothes, and Long Mart or Meiri Long for Korean snacks. Of course, the rest of the time is to enjoy the food, such as Fengmao BBQ and Guxiang Rib Soup.
A day trip to the Tumen Sino-Korean border and Hunchun to see three countries at a glance is worth arranging. You can travel back and forth between Yanji by high-speed rail or bus.
A trip to Changbai Mountain is suitable for 1-2 days. Stay in Erdaobaihe Town, and from Yanji, the North Slope is the first choice, with well-developed facilities, many attractions, less walking, and convenient transportation. The ticket for the North Slope is 225 yuan plus 80 yuan for the main peak of Tianchi, totaling 305 yuan. The itinerary can be arranged like this: on the first day, visit the Water Market and other places, on the second day, visit the Folk Park, Dinosaur Kingdom, etc. On the fourth day, travel from Yanji to Erdaobaihe Town, visit Meiren Song Park and Yunding Market. On the fifth day, visit the North Slope of Changbai Mountain, admire the main peak of Tianchi, waterfalls, and other scenery. When returning, Changbai Mountain Station is the closest to the North Slope. If the journey is long, you can go to Changchun to take a flight back.

The current state of tourism in Yanji and Changbai Mountain
Sisters who haven't come yet really need to heed the advice.
2024 August, an unforgettable trip to Changbai Mountain and Yanji
In the busy life, taking four or five days to go to Yanji, Tumen, and Changbai Mountain for a relaxing and enjoyable trip is an excellent choice.
Yanji - A Food Paradise
Yanji's food is so abundant that it's overwhelming. Among the many delicacies, the spicy beef soup rice is a must-try. The rich broth and tender beef are unforgettable. The pig's trotters mixed noodles are also not to be missed, with soft pig's trotters paired with chewy noodles, offering a rich texture. The grilled skewers at Jinli Skewer Shop are another highlight, each skewer perfectly grilled and aromatic. Although the fried squid at Xingdou Restaurant is delicious, it's best not to eat too much as it can be greasy. Master Zhang's ginseng chicken soup, located opposite People's Park, offers a pleasant environment and attentive service. The chicken soup has a sweet ginseng flavor, and the perilla leaf pancake with radish chunks is simply a delicacy.
Tumen - The Shock of the National Gate
Take a bus from Yanji to Tumen, and then take bus No. 9 after getting off. Even if it rains, the first sight of the national gate is deeply shocking, an indescribable feeling. In just three or four hours, you can experience the unique charm of Tumen.
Changbai Mountain - The Masterpiece of Nature
Choosing to stay in Erdaobaihe Town is a wise decision. This picturesque town has complete facilities. Arriving the night before, you can ride a shared bike or walk with friends to enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the town. There are many restaurants and milk tea shops to choose from. I once tried a barbecue restaurant recommended by a friend, and the small purple sweet potatoes were highly praised. The staff helped with the grilling, and the control of the heat was excellent.
The next morning, head to Changbai Mountain with full energy. Eat appropriately before going up the mountain, but don't overeat, as the bumpy ride can cause motion sickness. It's recommended to go straight to Tianchi first, then take the car down to see other attractions, avoiding the hassle of backtracking.
Regarding renting coats, there's no need to rent in advance. There are rental points at the ticket inspection center and Tianchi, with transparent and uniform prices. You can check the weather forecast in advance to estimate the temperature on the mountain (usually, the temperature drops by 0.6-1 degrees for every 100 meters of elevation, with Tianwen Peak at an altitude of 2660 meters). If the weather is good, there's no need to rent a coat. The beauty of Tianchi is mesmerizing. For photos, go to line B for a better view. The instant noodles at Green Water Pool are perfectly cooked, bringing a sense of happiness. As for the Valley Forest, if you're tired, there's no need to go to the end. It's a long shaded path ending in a large forest.
New Attractions and Food Recommendations
In Yanji, you can also check out the popular wall at Yanbian University for photos and feel the youthful vibe. For food, try the stone pot bibimbap and rice cakes; their unique flavors will surely satisfy your taste buds.
In Changbai Mountain, besides the mentioned attractions, you can also visit Changbai Waterfall to feel its majestic momentum.

"My Adventure on the North Slope of Changbai Mountain: A Trip with Regrets Waiting for Snow".
When I first arrived, I was worried that the weather might be bad and the Heavenly Lake would be closed. Fortunately, the weather was good, and this trip left no regrets. I went to the North Slope, which is located in Erdao Baihe Town, and the high-speed rail station is in this town. The town is small, and two days are enough to explore it thoroughly. Tickets for the North Slope need to be booked in advance and are divided into time slots, so you can plan according to your schedule (remember: you can enter later than your reserved time, but not earlier). The ticket checkpoint is very close to the town. After entering, you first take a bus to the foot of Changbai Mountain, then take a small car to rush to the top, which takes about an hour and a half. The ride in the small car is thrilling, with winding mountain roads like a roller coaster. I think the ticket price is worth it! The wind at the top is very strong, so I recommend wearing thick clothes. If you didn't bring any, you can rent a coat at the ticket checkpoint. Don't skimp on this, or you'll freeze. The scenery of the Heavenly Lake is stunning, and I was very lucky with the weather, so every photo I took looked like a masterpiece. The routes at the top are well-marked, so just follow the crowd, and you won't get lost. After visiting the Heavenly Lake, take the small car down the mountain, then the bus will take you to the waterfall, Little Heavenly Lake, Green Abyss Pool, and the underground forest, all without walking (the bus fare is included in the ticket, no extra cost). A full day will be gone after this tour. In the evening, you can soak in a hot spring at the foot of Changbai Mountain before returning to the hotel (note: only the hot springs at the Crowne and Blue hotels use water from Changbai Mountain). On the second day, you can stroll around Erdao Baihe Town, which has many free parks with beautiful scenery. There are also many entertainment options, but they are not cheap, so it depends on your budget. For lunch and dinner, you can try the local specialties. There are a few restaurants in town that serve excellent local dishes, which I found by asking locals. They go there often, so the taste is guaranteed. To avoid advertising, I won't mention the names of these restaurants. The portions here are very large, so don't order too much if there are few people.
Lastly, I missed the snow scenery of Changbai Mountain this time, which is a great regret. I will definitely come back in winter!

Reverse Tourism! Changbai Mountain this summer is really 'off the beaten path'~
Influenced by TV dramas, I have always longed to see the true face of Changbai Mountain guarded by Zhang Qiling, so I embarked on this exciting journey to Changbai Mountain and Yanji. Here is a practical guide for a four-day, three-night trip, hoping to help you avoid pitfalls during your travels.
Four-Day, Three-Night Itinerary
Day 1: Arrive in Changchun by plane, walk about ten minutes within the airport to reach Longjia High-Speed Rail Station, take a two-hour high-speed train to Changbai Mountain Station, and then check into Erdaobaihe Town. Here, you can fully enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the town.
Day 2: Brave the climb to Tianchi of Changbai Mountain, experience the thrill of Moguai rafting, and then head to Yanji.
Day 3: In the morning, visit the Oriental Water Market to feel the local atmosphere; then tour the Korean Folk Village, wear traditional Korean clothing for a beautiful photo shoot; and check out the popular sign wall.
Day 4: Tour the China-North Korea border, appreciate the unique border scenery, and then stroll along the Tumen River.
Travel Tips
It is very convenient to reach Longjia High-Speed Rail Station after arriving in Changchun by plane. However, be sure to check the weather forecast before heading to Tianchi of Changbai Mountain, as bad weather may cause the pool to be closed. It is not recommended to buy the anti-slip chains sold at the entrance of Changbai Mountain Scenic Area, as they are not very practical. The wind at Tianchi is strong and cold, so be sure to wear a thick down jacket with a hood. In winter, only the north and west slopes of Tianchi are usually open; the north slope is near Erdaobaihe Town, and you can take a taxi from the town to the scenic area's ticket checkpoint. There are buses from Erdaobaihe Town Bus Station to Yanji, making travel convenient. Half a day is enough to tour the China-North Korea border in Tumen. In Yanji, the Korean Folk Village is a must-visit, where you can take unique photos in traditional Korean clothing. The Oriental Water Market opens early, and the best time to visit is from 5 to 8 AM. You don't need to buy coffee to check out the popular sign wall; there are many cups on the ground that you can use for photos.
Northeast Winter Warm Clothing
Upper body: Choose a long down jacket with a hood, which is warm and windproof.
Lower body: Fleece-lined thick cotton pants to keep your legs warm.
Shoes: High-top snow boots to protect your feet from the cold.
Socks: Thick cotton socks to increase warmth.
Accessories: Gloves, scarves, earmuffs, and wool hats to fully resist the cold.
Additional Attractions
- Laokeli Lake: A fairy-tale world where primeval forests and snow scenes complement each other.
- Underground Forest: A natural oxygen bar where you can feel the magical charm of nature.
Food Recommendations
- Iron Pot Stew: Steaming hot, rich in ingredients, and flavorful.

- Rice Sausage: Soft, glutinous, and fragrant, with a unique taste.
- Spicy Kimchi: Sour and spicy, appetizing and perfect with rice.

Heavenly Lake of Changbai Mountain, check
❤️ Coming to Changbai Mountain is all for the view of Heavenly Lake, but it's really down to luck whether you can see it or not.
🏚️ We stayed for a week in Erdaobaihe Town at the foot of the mountain, and the weather wasn't very good this week. We were quite lucky, though, and finally got to see the true face of Heavenly Lake one morning.
【How to Play】
✅ Erdaobaihe Town is on the north slope of Changbai Mountain, no need to hike, a car ride takes you straight to the Heavenly Lake entrance. It is said that if you want to hike, you can go to the west slope, where you have to climb up by yourself.
✅ Ticket: 225 yuan
Includes ticket + eco-friendly vehicle + tourist shuttle bus
✅ Process:
🔸 Take a bus from the visitor center, about 50 minutes
🔸 Get off and switch to a minibus, take 72 turns, and arrive at the Heavenly Lake entrance
🔸 After enjoying the view of Heavenly Lake, take the minibus down the mountain to the Luyuan Pool scenic area
🔸 Then visit Luyuan Pool, waterfall, and hot springs (the waterfall and hot springs require climbing some steps)
🔸 Then take a bus, change buses, and return to the visitor center, ending the trip
✏️【Notice】
✨ The wind is very strong on Heavenly Lake! It's not too cold, but the wind is so strong that it's hard to stand still, so wear windproof clothing.
✨ Regarding renting cotton-padded clothes, many places offer rentals, all for 30 yuan. If you find it inconvenient to carry, you can rent them at Heavenly Lake; there are rentals at the mountain top as well, also for 30 yuan.
✨ Regarding lunch, there is a restaurant at Luyuan Pool, 60 yuan per person for a buffet, but the cost-performance ratio is quite low. If you don't mind the trouble, you can bring your own packed lunch.
✨ Locals say that the best season is September, with less rain in autumn, a higher chance to see Heavenly Lake, and no snow yet. There is more rain in July and August, and snow starts in October.

Travel Highlights
Day1: Changbai Mountain
Changbai Mountain is the highest peak in the Northeast, a border mountain between China and North Korea, and one of China's top ten famous mountains.
The slope chosen by Qingying is the north slope, which is concentrated with scenic spots and rich in attractions. When you come to Changbai Mountain, of course, you want to climb the 'roof of the Northeast' to take a look. However, whether you can catch a glimpse of the majestic Heavenly Lake depends on the weather of Changbai Mountain that day.
1: Heavenly Lake of Changbai Mountain: The lake was formed after volcanic eruption, with water accumulating in the mountains. The emerald green water is as dazzling as a gem.
Key point: Qingying will arrange for the team members to enter the scenic area as early as possible on the day, so that they can reach Heavenly Lake earlier than others and spend more time in the Changbai Mountain scenic area.
2: The waterfalls of Changbai Mountain are located between the astronomical peak and Longmen peak on the north side. The water flows continuously from the cliffs and falls thunderously.
3: The Lüyuan Tan waterfall falls straight down with a maximum drop of 26 meters, splashing on the boulders.
4: Julong Hot Spring is the largest, most widely distributed, and hottest spring in the Changbai Mountain hot spring group, known as the number one spring of Changbai Mountain.
5: The Underground Forest, also known as the 'Valley Bottom Forest', is the lowest altitude attraction in the north scenic area of Changbai Mountain.
6: Erdaobaihe Town is known as a small town at the foot of Changbai Mountain, surrounded by the Changbai Mountain range.
Day2: Yanji
Yanji is a city where the Korean ethnic group lives in China, known as the 'hometown of song and dance'. Yanji is also a paradise for food, with specialties such as raw pickled, mixed rice, rice wine, dog meat, cold noodles, etc.
1: Yanbian University is one of the earliest comprehensive universities established in ethnic minority areas in China, with campus architecture featuring Korean style.
2: Yanbian University Town's popular wall gives you a feeling of being in 'Korea', with Korean language signs all over the street.
3: Korean Ethnic Folk Park consists of 40 buildings with Korean ethnic style, where you can watch and experience traditional Korean handicrafts.
4: Xishi Market is a place that carries the childhood memories of Yanji people and is also a 'postcard' of Yanji.
5: Yanji Dinosaur Museum is the only dinosaur-themed museum in Jilin Province.
Qingying Travel mainly targets young people, making travel more enjoyable among peers, with comfortable hotel accommodations, and a special hot spring on the second night.
Precautions:
1. Warm clothing: The temperature difference between morning and evening in Yanji and Changbai Mountain during May Day is quite large, with temperatures expected to be around 5℃-20℃.
2. Documents: Student ID, ID card, and if you have a tour guide certificate or other documents that offer ticket discounts, bring them along.
3. A large-capacity power bank and data cable for travel.
4. Personal essential medicines.
5. Due to the temperature difference between morning and evening and the dry weather, carry a thermal water bottle.

A Day at the Citywalk of Erdaobaihe Town | Not Looking at Tianchi
🛟North Slope Water Color Rafting
Depart from Changbai Mountain Hotel at 6 o'clock, arrive at about 6:45. There are fewer people than the Magic World Rafting, you can prepare to board the boat when you arrive. Around 7:15, the sun slowly rises, with the mist and the snow forest on the side, it's like being in a fairyland. It is recommended to float up at sunrise, very photogenic! It takes about 40 minutes to finish the drift, and then you can leisurely have breakfast at the hotel👍
🦌Snow Velvet Deer Park
The snow scene and the deer are like entering a fairy tale world! There are swings in the courtyard, and the log cabin can be photographed. When feeding, raise your hands high and be careful of being hit by deer antlers. The white deer are very gentle, and they can cooperate with the photo even if they are not fed. There are also three (silly) roe deer on the left side of the entrance, completely unprofessional. You can go in the morning, and the deer will go to nap after lunch. It is recommended to bring ice claws! Outside the deer park is a log cabin hot pot, you can set off fireworks while having dinner at night, and I will want to experience it next time.
❄️Ice Waterfall
Next to the deer park, the most famous photo is a love heart ice waterfall and ice bar (🆓) shot upwards.
☕️A Mouthful of Changbai
A very famous coffee shop in the town, a 15-minute walk from the deer park. The layout of the shop and the backyard is very suitable for taking pictures. There is music in the shop, and there is a border collie puppy named Bit, the warm atmosphere in winter💯. The ordered linden honey latte (hot) and volcanic ash latte (iced) are very distinctive and you can try try! The little sister (wearing glasses) in the shop is very cute and enthusiastic❤️
📨Letter from Changbai Mountain
The cultural and creative shop that is integrated with the coffee shop next door, you can buy postcards and send them out. The most distinctive feature in the shop is the stamp, a total of 10 stamps can be combined into a picture of a little tiger in Changbai Mountain Tianchi. The postcard is 3r/piece, you can buy envelopes to match, and the handwritten font on it is also very emotional, it takes about half a month to send.
🥦Erdaobaihe Small Market
Very lucky to catch up with the big market (every 5, 5/10/15...) Basically selling fruits, vegetables and agricultural and sideline products. I haven't felt the fireworks for a long time, and I bought two sticky fire burns (yellow rice version of sticky bean buns) bean paste filling and suzi sugar, quite delicious.
🎬Flying over Changbai Mountain and Flying over China Naked Eye 4D Movie
Located in the tourist distribution center, the two films will be played together, a total of 25 minutes. First is Flying over Changbai Mountain, following Haidongqing to fly over the four seasons of Changbai, which is relatively flat, without any stimulation, suitable for all ages. Then sit in place, the audience who bought a single movie leave, and start playing Flying over China. It has a better experience than Disney's Soaring over the Horizon (faster), walking through the great rivers and mountains of the motherland is really exciting, and finally coming out of the earth to the universe and the galaxy is really tearful, feeling the vastness of the universe and the insignificance of human beings (ah, is it a spoiler), after watching it, I want to ask my friends if I can watch it again😭I really highly recommend it👍

This is probably the desolate beauty in other people's mouth
4️⃣Cedar Post Office🏣
Not far from the Xueronghua scenic area is a small and warm post office
There are all kinds of postcards in the store
I heard that the shopkeeper is a blue cat
I always believe that handwritten letters are the last romance of this era

⚠️Travel Tips
⭕️Winter is here, and it's very cold in Yanji! Remember to wear a thick down jacket! Don't bring too much luggage, it's too troublesome to carry big and small bags! 🧣
⭕️If there is a direct flight to Yanji Chaoyangchuan Airport, it would be better. If not, you can go to Changchun Longjia Airport first. 🛫
⭕️It only takes one hour to climb Maoer Mountain, where you can see the spectacular view of planes taking off and landing! ✈️
⭕️Yanbian Museum is closed on Mondays, and the visit time is about 1 hour. You can learn about the customs of the Korean nationality! 🏛️
⭕️When you come to the northeast, you must experience the bathing culture. It can drive away the cold in your body in an instant, with both Korean flavor and Yanbian characteristics! 💦
⭕️The internet celebrity wall opposite Yanji is very suitable for taking pictures, whether it's day or night, it's very beautiful, but be careful, don't take pictures on the road! 📸
⭕️The coffee and desserts in Yanji are very good, you don't need to go to the trendy places specifically! ☕🍰
I hope my travel guide is helpful to you! I wish you a pleasant time in Changbai Mountain and Yanji! ✨🌲

Changbai Mountain has its own "Ice" Terracotta Army
At the foot of Changbai Mountain, in Erdaobaihe Town, a snowman army of 500 people has secretly assembled❗❗❗

For the little potatoes from the south, it's more than a little shocking. Hurry up and take a commemorative photo☃️

📷:
1️⃣Using drones can get richer perspectives
2️⃣Go on a sunny day, the shadows on the ground are more layered
3️⃣On sunny days, it is recommended to go before noon, most of the snowmen can be illuminated, and gradually enter the shadow in the afternoon
