Things to do in Yanbian

Changbai Mountain, true to its name, is incredibly clean! The restrooms in all areas were spotless, with sensor-activated flushes and hot water for handwashing – a truly touching experience for an autumn/winter trip. The restrooms had different themes, such as sables and black bears, adding a touch of vibrancy. We arrived a little late; most of the leaves had fallen, and it was the dry season, so the waterfalls weren't at their most beautiful. The small Tianchi Lake wasn't worth visiting yet; it's small, the water quality is so-so, and the surrounding forests are bare. Overall, the autumn air was crisp and clear. The 50-kilometer stretch from the distribution center to the transfer center was beautiful, vibrant with color, and Tianchi Lake was stunning. I especially loved the forest at the bottom of the valley; the pine scent was wonderful! I highly recommend walking to the end; there are vast, fairytale-like forests there, and we were lucky enough to encounter foxes and quite a few chipmunks along the way!

Enjoyed our outting here - so lovely ! But Tianchi was closed due to winds and we were sad and disappointed.

Staying at the Crowne Plaza Hotel allows you to enjoy the hot springs downstairs, with unlimited access every day. The natural hot springs are excellent. Special thanks to Wang Rongmei, the staff member, for their attentive and warm service. This trip was very pleasant and highly recommended. I would love to come back again next time.

Although many say China's Snow Town is becoming too touristy & expensive (compared to Snow Valley), I think it is still worth visiting. There are lots of ACTIVITIES to do all within walking distance. Reindeer rides, feeding, skiing, photo op including the hot water vapor video etc. One down side is that there was no signage to designated bus to/from Yabuli station (no waiting area either). It is also difficult to find restaurants for people with dietary restrictions (eg. Vegetarian, halal etc).

Booking tickets on the platform is very convenient; you can just swipe your ID card to enter without picking up a ticket. The information provided by the platform is accurate. I have always used this platform for travel and will continue to pay attention to it.

Navigation location: Magic World Rafting parking lot, Magic World Rafting ticket office, VIP green channel. Rafting distance: 4.8km. For the longest rafting section, be sure to check your navigation carefully. (1km rafting route including the large spring and rafting area)

It's definitely worth a visit. The reindeer are all very well-behaved, so don't be afraid they might hurt you. They're all very affectionate. The biggest issue is that the male reindeer were in heat, so the smell was quite strong, but everything else was great. The kids loved it!

Although it's an artificial photo spot, it's still quite interesting because I've never seen architecture like this before. The garden is actually very small; you can walk through it in no time if you don't take photos, so you don't need to stay too long.

😱The log flume was thrilling!😄 🎢The roller coaster is a favorite among young people❤, but the weightlessness of the drop tower made me hesitate. Kudos to the brave riders!😃 🏃Amusement park worth a try!👍
