My friends thought I went to Korea, but I actually went to the border town of Yanji.

I just came back from Yanji, and I still can't get over it. Let me tell you how I really feel.
I really felt like I was in Korea. It was so immersive.
And the food in Yanji is amazing. I really love it.

⭐️ Yanji City Walk One-Day Tour:
Yanji Water Market ➡️ Yanji Park ➡️ Internet-famous Wall ➡️ Yanbian University ➡️ Yannan Road ➡️ Korean Folk Village ➡️ Mao'er Mountain ➡️ Yanbian Museum ➡️ Internet-famous Wall.
Yanji is small, so one day is enough to visit all the internet-famous attractions. But if you want to try all the food here, you'll need at least a week.

✅ Yanji Water Market
You can find all the delicious food in Yanji here. I love the atmosphere of the market. It's really lively, and the Korean food and snacks are dazzling and mouth-watering.
⏰ 4:00–8:30 am. I recommend having breakfast here. There are many options, but if you go late, many shops will be closed.

✅ Internet-famous Wall
It feels like Korea. It's a super long building with dense Korean signs. There aren't many tourists during the day, but it's crowded at night. There are also various performances at night, which are very lively.
-
✅ Yanbian University
A beautiful campus.
-
✅ Yanji Park
You will pass by it on the way from the Water Market to the Internet-famous Wall. There are many ice and snow activities in the park.
-
✅ Yannan Road
The buildings on both sides of the road are very Korean, colorful, and photogenic.
-
✅ Korean Folk Village
Most people come here to take photos in Korean costumes. There are many internet-famous spots and artificial snow, which are very photogenic.
-
✅ Mao'er Mountain
Climb to the top of the mountain to overlook the city of Yanji. It takes about 1 hour to walk around the mountain. It's windy at the top, so dress warmly.
🎫 Free.

⭐️⭐️ Travel Tips
1⃣️ Yanji has an airport and a high-speed rail station. It takes about 2.5 hours to travel from Changchun to Yanji by high-speed rail. There are trains from Beijing, Harbin, Shenyang, and other places. It's very convenient to get to Yanji.
2⃣️ Yanji is small, so you can walk between many attractions. It's also easy to take a taxi, and Yanji has a BRT.
3⃣️ In addition to the Internet-famous Wall, many places in Yanji are also internet-famous at night. There are many beautiful bridges over the Burhatong River that flows through Yanji.
4️⃣ The winter in Yanji is not as cold as Harbin and Changbai Mountain. If you can handle the cold in Harbin, Yanji will be easy.
5️⃣ I really love Korean food in Yanji. Foodies should not miss Yanji.
