Just returned from Changbai Mountain, it was cold but the scenery was beautiful and it was a great place to escape the summer heat!!!

Ticket Guide: The basic classic ticket includes the entrance ticket, eco-friendly bus, and shuttle bus. Most of the attractions in the northern area are included, but the main peak Tianchi requires a separate ticket, priced at 80 yuan per person, which includes the round-trip vehicle fee to Tianchi. If you want to enter the park in the morning, it is recommended to buy tickets 3-7 days in advance; if it is not the peak season, you can buy tickets one day in advance. The entry time can only be later than the selected time, not earlier. Entrance Process: Arrive at the ticket inspection hall (with restrooms and lounges inside), swipe your ID card to enter, and then take the vehicle up the mountain (about 50 people per vehicle, the vehicle departs when full, the journey takes about 40 minutes to reach the transfer center. Note that ticket inspection stops at 3:30 PM, there is no limit on the time to descend). Transfer Routes: 1. Main Peak Tianchi (requires a separate ticket of 80 yuan per person): After getting off, go straight up the stairs to transfer (about 7 queues, about 20 minutes of queuing), the journey to the main peak Tianchi is 10.2 kilometers, taking about 16 minutes. 2. Changbai Waterfall: After getting off, queue at the original place to transfer. Recommended Tour Route: Entrance - Main Peak Tianchi - Changbai Waterfall - Small Tianchi, Green Abyss Pool - Underground Forest - Exit. This route is recommended because after visiting Tianchi, the minibus can directly take you to Changbai Waterfall, saving time and energy. If time is tight, you can skip Small Tianchi, and then the Underground Forest. Self-driving Information: When driving to Changbai Mountain, be sure to navigate to the Changbai Mountain North Slope Transfer Center. There is also a Changbai Mountain North Scenic Area Visitor Service Point, which seems similar but is actually 30 kilometers apart, and the round trip may waste an hour. Please pay attention and avoid taking the wrong route. Mid-July Temperature: The temperature at the foot of the mountain is usually around 25-30 degrees; the temperature on the mountain is about 11-15 degrees. Food Recommendations: Changbai Mountain offers a variety of delicious foods, such as iron pot stew, Korean cold noodles, spicy cabbage, rice cakes, etc. New Attraction Recommendations: Wangchi, Alpine Garden, and other attractions are also worth visiting. I hope this guide helps you have a pleasant trip to Changbai Mountain!
