Escape the city heat and cool off here

A visit to Changbai Mountain is a must when in Yanbian, where you can marvel at the charm of this dormant volcano. 🚉Transportation Guide: Take a high-speed train from Changchun or Yanji to Changbai Mountain Station, then transfer to a scenic area shuttle bus; or drive from Dunhua or Antu. 🌟Highlights: North Slope: The earliest developed with complete facilities, you can take an eco-friendly bus + cable car directly to Tianchi (Heavenly Lake). West Slope: Offers expansive views but requires climbing 1,442 steps to reach the summit. South Slope (North Korean side): Less crowded with stunning scenery, but requires a border pass. Nearby attractions: Changbai Waterfall, Julong Hot Springs, Green Deep Pool, Underground Forest, etc. ⏳Best Time to Visit: Summer (July-August): A perfect summer retreat with high chances of Tianchi being open. Autumn (September-October): The forests turn vibrant colors, ideal for photography. Winter (November-March): A skiing paradise (e.g., Wanda Changbai Mountain Resort) with Tianchi frozen like jade. 📝Tips: 1. The weather at Changbai Mountain's summit is unpredictable—bring a windbreaker or rent a coat (though it may affect photo quality). There are many photogenic spots. 2. Try the hot spring eggs. 3. Both the small forest and waterfall are great for photos. Whether you're a hiking enthusiast, photography lover, or culture seeker, you'll find unique experiences here.
