This winter, you must visit Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain! 🏔️ The sacred mountain scenery in Northeast China is absolutely breathtaking. Just finished organizing this super detailed guide - save it now!
🚶♂️ Classic 3-day itinerary:
Day1: North Slope highlights
📍 Changbai Mountain North Scenic Area: Arrive before 8am, head straight to Tianchi Peak (open depending on weather in winter), then visit Waterfall - Small Tianchi - Green Deep Pool on the way down
⚠️Tips: The Tianchi viewing platform is very windy/snowy - don't forget hats and gloves
📍 Mojie Drifting: Experience the rime spectacle in afternoon (best light at 7-8am)
Day2: West Slope in-depth tour
📍 Changbai Mountain West Scenic Area: Climb 1,442 steps to see Tianchi's full view, visit Jinjiang Grand Canyon along the way
🍴 Lunch recommendation: Hot spring eggs & corn at West Slope visitor center
📍 Wanda Resort: Try night skiing in evening (beginners choose Gentleman's Slope)
Day3: Leisure activities
📍 Erdaobaihe Town: Visit Beauty Pine Park, see hot spring rime at Mojie Scenic Area
📍 Crowne Plaza Hot Spring: Soak in authentic volcanic hot springs before leaving (bring swimsuits!)
🍜 Must-try foods:
❶ Iron pot stew (recommend Yanbian yellow beef pot)
❷ Hot spring eggs (10 yuan for 3 at West Slope)
❸ Sticky fire cakes (made fresh by local grannies)
❹ Korean cold noodles (most authentic at "Changbai Mountain's Best Noodles")
⚠️ Practical Tips:
✅ Best time: December-February (best snow views)
✅ Clothing: Thick down jacket + anti-slip snow boots + heating pads
✅ Transport: Recommended to charter car (long distances between sites)
✅ Tickets: Book in advance on Ctrip - peak season queues waste time
