Things to do in Changbai Mountain

The newly opened hotel was clean, had good service, and a plentiful breakfast. The hotel's location was also very convenient, just ten minutes from the mountain gate and the train station, with a shuttle bus available. The Meiren Pine Park was right across the street, and there was a food street behind the hotel. It was also very close by taxi to the Shidai Fried Chicken and Lianyu Soup Rice commercial street. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.

Changbai Mountain, true to its name, is incredibly clean! The restrooms in all areas were spotless, with sensor-activated flushes and hot water for handwashing – a truly touching experience for an autumn/winter trip. The restrooms had different themes, such as sables and black bears, adding a touch of vibrancy. We arrived a little late; most of the leaves had fallen, and it was the dry season, so the waterfalls weren't at their most beautiful. The small Tianchi Lake wasn't worth visiting yet; it's small, the water quality is so-so, and the surrounding forests are bare. Overall, the autumn air was crisp and clear. The 50-kilometer stretch from the distribution center to the transfer center was beautiful, vibrant with color, and Tianchi Lake was stunning. I especially loved the forest at the bottom of the valley; the pine scent was wonderful! I highly recommend walking to the end; there are vast, fairytale-like forests there, and we were lucky enough to encounter foxes and quite a few chipmunks along the way!

Staying at the Crowne Plaza Hotel allows you to enjoy the hot springs downstairs, with unlimited access every day. The natural hot springs are excellent. Special thanks to Wang Rongmei, the staff member, for their attentive and warm service. This trip was very pleasant and highly recommended. I would love to come back again next time.

When visiting Changbai Mountain, don't miss this natural history museum. Here you can learn about the past and present of Tianchi (Heavenly Lake) and the volcano. The sand table model, volcanic images, and abundant flora and fauna specimens encapsulate the story of this mountain range over millions of years. If you encounter clouds and fog on your ascent and can't see Tianchi clearly, the panoramic exhibits inside can make up for it. Visiting before your climb will make your experience of Changbai Mountain completely different.

In this beautiful scenic area, you can choose to hike or cycle 🚴🏻‍♀️, watch the sunrise in the morning and the sunset in the evening, relax in the natural oxygen bar, and immerse yourself in the embrace of the mountains to let yourself go.

This stay was fantastic! The hotel was impeccably clean, the room was bright, and the facilities were complete and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, patient, and responsive to our needs. The environment was quiet, providing a high quality of rest. Excellent value for money, highly recommended!

Peaceful rafting and less crowded. I had a very good experience.

Besides rafting, the forest also offers swings, deck chairs, and other relaxing facilities. During the National Day holiday, it took an hour to drive in for rafting, but the queue lasted two to three hours. The scenic area only has one road in and out, which is narrow and mixes pedestrians and vehicles, making it difficult to get in or out. They said the forest development permits were difficult to obtain, and the staff had already tried their best to guide visitors and provide shuttle buses to those in distant parking areas; their service was quite good. I really hope they can find a way to optimize the flow of people, expand the parking lot in front of the scenic area, or consider implementing a one-way system like the one in the valley. There are also tent hotels inside.

The hot springs at the Blue View Hotel have pleasant views, fresh and comfortable air, and pristine forest trees. It is a summer resort. The indoor and outdoor staff are warm and thoughtful. They took the initiative to change our bathrobes and towels, and gave the children socks. The experience of this trip is really very good and very happy! I recommend it to all my friends!
