Where should southerners go to see snow? This winter, you don't need to travel thousands of miles, simply come to Changbai Mountain to enjoy the beauty of the snow.
A journey through the Changbai Mountain scenic area. The rich fairytale world lets you experience the charm of the northern scenery.
What do you need to prepare before your trip? Warm baby stickers (I recommend at least 4 per day), thermal underwear, waterproof snow boots, thick hats, earmuffs, gloves, portable thermos, sunglasses, etc. These items will accompany you on an unforgettable snow trip.
Itinerary:
Day 1: Depart from Yanji in the morning and arrive at the Changbai Mountain Xueling Scenic Area after about 1.5 hrs. You can hike through the primeval forest and experience the charm of Northeast China's nature, or choose to take a snowmobile or horse-drawn sleigh up the mountain. There are also opportunities to get up close and personal with reindeer and feed them moss. Afterward, head to the hotel to rest. Remember to hold the red rope around the reindeer's neck, and they will obediently stop for a photo with you. In the evening, I recommend you try the Linhai Xueyuan iron pot stew and the cabin cuisine at the Rice Wine House.
Day 2: Go rafting in the morning at the rafting spot, which takes about 20 mins. The entire rafting experience is about 40 mins. Afterward, you can go skiing or enjoy the hot springs. For dinner, you can choose the hotel buffet or soak in the outdoor natural volcanic hot springs. In the afternoon, I recommend you visit the Julong Hot Springs, where the scenery is incredibly beautiful, and every photo you take will be a masterpiece.
The above is the basic itinerary. In Changbai Mountain, you can choose from a variety of activities and attractions to experience different local customs.
Overall, Changbai Mountain is a cost-effective place to see snow, with rich scenery and activities. This winter, why not come to Changbai Mountain to see the snowy landscape and experience the romance and charm of the north!
