Relaxing time in Changchun

I've heard that Northeast China is known for its "slow life." Indeed, you'll find plenty of time to relax and unwind in Changchun.

First, I'd like to recommend the area where I previously recommended the cafe, "Qihai Coffee & Restaurant (Shiguang Road Branch)."
The surrounding area is filled with interesting murals and other attractions, making it a fun place to stroll around. It seems there are plenty of stylish cafes to enjoy!
The first photo was taken near the aforementioned cafe. (The cafe's address is the intersection on the north side of Building A1, Laiyindong County, Zhonghai, Nanguan District.)

Also, "Ziyoushan" is another must-see spot. Admission to the facility itself is free, and this time, I paid 10 yuan to enter the area with the large Buddha statue.
There are many unique shops and other interesting places to shop, and I also enjoyed a meal.
📍Address: No. 959 Hongqi Street, Chaoyang District, Changchun City, Jilin Province
🕰️Hours: Monday to Sunday, 10:30 AM - 10:00 PM

Also, if you're staying in the city, I recommend Nanhu Park. Admission is also free. While some say the park is open 24 hours a day, it's best to visit during daylight hours.
I saw local families and groups of friends relaxing by the lake. Camping is also available.
📍Address: No. 2715 Gongnong Road, Chaoyang District, Changchun City, Jilin Province

Trying a local Japanese restaurant might also be a great experience.
Their ingenious cuisine will leave a lasting impression during your trip. I tried the soba noodles.

The last attraction I'd like to introduce this time is the Changchun World Sculpture Garden. Admission is also free, but there are several museums within the grounds, allowing you to appreciate a wide variety of sculptures.
The garden is very large, so if you want to see the whole thing, I recommend taking the garden bus. It costs NT$10 per person.
