West Slope of Changbai Mountain Scenic Area

Good luck and the weather is very good. After climbing to the top of the west slope, I saw the long-awaited Tianchi. The water is clear and green, which is spectacular. It is not a problem to climb the 1442 steps. Changbai Mountain Grand Canyon is also worth seeing.

The west slope has to transfer to the second car to reach the foot of the mountain, and then climb the 1440 steps to reach Tianchi. There are food for sale at the foot of the mountain, and the price is OK and convenient. The weather on the top of Tianchi Mountain changes quickly and the fog is large. Unfortunately, I didn't see Tianchi and it was raining. However, the scenery in the fog is still very special and worth a visit!

Not generally beautiful, very very worth going. The steps are not very tired for young people. Every 10 steps will be marked for you, super friendly. If you can't go up, you can still spend money to make a sedan. They are called "Huagai" here, and the name is very domineering. The above is really beautiful, the weather was super good that day, and the luck was very good. It is super comfortable to bask in the sun on it. The most important picture is the Grand Canyon. There are many small squirrels. You can bring the original melon seeds. After all, the pine seeds are more expensive. They are faster than people.

I don't recommend going to the west slope scenic spot in winter. The west slope is the two attractions of Tianchi and the Grand Canyon, and the west slope is also positive about the open Tianchi. On December 26, 2019, the sun hung high, and the windless noon, the west slope Tianchi was closed tightly, which disappointed all tourists. Another attraction, the Grand Canyon, is actually a small mountain ditch. I feel that there should be no small place in Changbai Mountain. It takes nearly 4 hours to drive back and forth, and it takes 45 minutes to leave. I knew I would not go.

20230706 All day: 1. "Changbai Mountain" is a world-famous dormant volcano, is one of the "10 famous mountains in China", "the first mountain in Northeast China", and is also the boundary mountain between China and North Korea. 9 of the 16 peaks on the top of the mountain are located in China, and contains the highest peak "General Peak" (2691 meters above sea level) Seven seats are in North Korea. Changbai Mountain was first seen in the "Shanhaijing" more than 4,000 years ago, that is, the fairy mountain. The famous "Tianchi" on the top of the mountain is the largest, deepest and highest crater lake in the world after the eruption of the volcano. It is the source of the Songhua River. One of the world's three major gold water sources, it is also the birthplace of the female true family, is regarded as the holy mountain of the dragon vein by the Jin Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty was banned and protected for more than 200 years, the Qing emperor often came to Changbai Mountain to worship and left poetry, history left Nurhachi, Qing Kangxi Emperor, Qianlong Emperor, Jiaqing Emperor, The footprints of celebrities such as Dao Guangdi, Fan Zhongyan, Du Fu, Xin Qiji, Xu Xiake, Deng Xiaoping, and others, also served as the base of the Northeast Anti-Japanese League during the Anti-Japanese War, and Yang Jingyu and other anti-Japanese national heroes emerged. The scenic area is rich in animal and plant resources, is a filming place for many film and television dramas, integrating viewing, skiing and hot springs, divided into three lines of north slope, west slope and south slope, which are not connected to each other in Changbai Mountain, and belong to the three independent sub-scenes of Changbai Mountain Scenic Area. The west slope contains five areas: Tianchi, "Jinjiang Grand Canyon", "Wangchi", "Alpine Garden", and "Ladder River". ① Address: 200 meters west of the intersection of Shengshan Road and Wangchi Street, Fusong County, Baishan City, Jilin Province (Changbaishan Tourism Distribution Service Center) ② Transportation: No bus, easy to stop by car. ③ peak season: The warmest summer, you can see the azalea sea and the iris in June. ④ Duration: 6 hours. ⑤ Note: Pay attention to the weather forecast before going, so as not to see the Tianchi on cloudy and foggy days. 2. The distribution center on the west slope of Changbai Mountain is in Jianghe Town, Fusong County. It is a direct train departure point to the scenic spot. It is a place that tourists must go, because private cars cannot enter the scenic spot. There are 3 kinds of public transportation to arrive: ① Aircraft: After coming out of "Baishan Changbaishan Airport", there is no airport bus and bus, only taxis to the distribution center 18 kilometers away, and the watch is about 40 yuan, but the driver who is hired usually has a price of more than 50 yuan, and can bargain for 40 yuan. ② Train: "Songjianghe Station" is about 7 kilometers away from the distribution center. If you hit the watch, it is less than 20 yuan, but the local taxi driver is biased towards a price, and you can bargain for 20 yuan. ③ Long-distance bus: "Songjianghe Passenger Transport Station" is about 7 kilometers away from the distribution center. If you take a taxi, the same as above. 3. Changbai Mountain Tourism Distribution Service Center sends a direct train to the scenic spot at 8:00 every morning, and will directly cross the entrance of the Xipo Scenic Area to reach the transfer center in the scenic area. The journey is 54 kilometers and it takes a little more than 1 hour. The ticket plus tickets total 214 yuan. 4. Tianchi needs to be in the transfer center, get off from the scenic through train and transfer to the shuttle bus. It takes about 0.5 hours to reach the Tianchi mountain pass. Along the way, it passes the circled uphill road. The vegetation is mainly flowers and plants and there are no trees. Climb 1442 steps from the Tianchi Mountain Pass... The number of words is over, continue in the last picture.

Looking at many strategies, it is said that the north slope is the earliest development, but the most complete view of Tianchi is the west slope, and the west slope is closest to the airport, so I chose the west slope. More than 1400 steps are actually OK, but when you come down, your knees can't stand it. It's very wasteful. The next day, your legs hurt. If you have the conditions, you still have a trekking pole. Xipo gave me the feeling that I had been waiting for the car to take the car. I didn't expect that there were so many tourists in the peak season. It took an hour to wait for the shuttle bus. It was another hour to take the car up the mountain. The scenic spot opened at 8 o'clock. After two drives to the ladder, it was almost 11 o'clock. Fortunately, the weather is very good, Tianchi can see very clearly. In addition, the Tianchi crater in early September has a huge wind. In addition to the jacket, you can bring a down or grab a down jacket if you are afraid of the cold. The back itinerary is to take the bus and drive down the mountain road to visit other attractions all the way.

We Changbai Mountain west slope to the top of the mountain has been raining this day, because Guangzhou friends come once is not easy, so rain also up the mountain. The wind and rain were heavy. We have been trying to climb. When we reached the peak, our clothes were almost soaked. Tianchi was covered by dense clouds. The wish to see Tianchi was not realized. We gave Tianchi a glass of wine on the big platform and we went down the mountain. I didn’t see Tianchi. Although it’s a bit regrettable, But we were happy.
