No one told me before I went to Snow Town that the "pitfalls" here are deeper than the snow

🌨️The beauty of Snow Town is otherworldly, but did you know? I almost cried because of the "pitfalls" in Snow Town!

The first time I stepped into this icy fairy tale world, I thought I would be greeted by dreamy snow mushrooms, romantic red lanterns, and delicious stews. But reality hit me like a "snowball to the head." Here is my personal experience—a guide to avoiding pitfalls in Snow Town, learned the hard way!

1️⃣ First pitfall in Snow Town
Wearing too little and freezing like an "ice sculpture"
As soon as I got off the bus, the cold wind hit me, and I was wide awake. I wore thermal clothes, a down jacket, and thick pants, thinking I could handle Snow Town? Wrong! Standing in the snow for less than 5 minutes, my toes went numb, and I could barely hold the camera!
👉Avoidance TIP: Wear enough! Make sure to wear enough! A windbreaker + thick down jacket + snow boots + warmers are the standard for Snow Town. Don't skimp, it's not expensive, and you'll regret it if you get frostbite!

2️⃣ Second pitfall in dining
The village's iron pot stew is too bizarre
The first hot pot in Snow Town really opened my eyes: a base fee of over 300 per person, and extra charges for dipping sauces?! I thought, "I'm already here," but the owner added an extra order of lamb that I never ordered when calculating the bill...
👉Avoidance TIP: No matter how tempting the restaurant is, make sure to ask about the prices before entering. I recommend eating at farmhouse restaurants, which are cheaper and have local flavors, offering better value for money!

3️⃣ Third pitfall in accommodation
Accommodation in Snow Town costs 2,000 per night, which is normal. Don't have high expectations; 2,000 is just for a 10-square-meter kang. But the key is, some tours claim to stay in Snow Town, charge you, but actually take you to New Snow Town (which is not in the scenic area). Make sure to ask.

4️⃣ Slippery roads
Taking a beautiful photo might mean falling eight times
The snow mushroom village in dreams is truly beautiful, but finding a spot on the soft snow is a "disaster movie." Wearing non-slip shoes, I had to "split" every two steps, and eventually, I fell into the snow pile, becoming the center of attention...
👉Avoidance TIP: Snow boots must be non-slip, and preferably waterproof. Find a stable place to stand when taking photos; safety is more important than a beautiful photo!

🌟The most worth visiting places in Snow Town
1. Snow mushroom village at night: Red lanterns and white snow, like a fairy tale come true!
2. Ice and snow boardwalk: Quiet and romantic, perfect for couples to walk hand in hand.
3. Horse-drawn sleigh at the village entrance: Experience "snow crossing," and the photos are amazing.

Finally, a word of advice: Snow Town is beautiful, but don't blindly yearn for it!
Everything here is cold, expensive, and beautiful. Travel is like this snowy land; there are always pitfalls waiting for you, but as long as you stay vigilant and avoid those "tricks," you can have a warm and unforgettable memory in the cold winter.
