The autumn in Mudanjiang is simply enchanting

The autumn in Mudanjiang feels like a scene straight out of a fairy tale. The golden forest sea resembles a carpet woven from sunlight, and the quietly flowing river reflects the colorful leaves covering the mountains, arriving like a dream in silence. Standing in this golden ocean, I can only repeat "so beautiful" because I can't find any other fitting words. Here is a detailed Mudanjiang guide, perfect for those planning a trip—make sure to save it! Recommended itinerary: 8:00 Arrive at Mudanjiang Station — drive 40 minutes to Jingpo Lake Scenic Area — walk along the lake and take photos anytime — 11:00 Arrive at Diaoshuilou Waterfall — after lunch, head to Volcano Crater Forest Park — 15:00 climb the observation deck to overlook the magnificent autumn scenery — 17:00 return to the city. Must-visit spots: Jingpo Lake Autumn Corridor, Diaoshuilou Waterfall, Volcano Crater Forest Park Observation Deck Recommended attractions: Jingpo Lake, Diaoshuilou Waterfall, Volcano Crater Forest Park Transportation advice: Self-driving is best, with excellent scenery along the way; public transport is inconvenient Accommodation recommendations: Affordable guesthouses in the city; booking in advance is advised Ticket information: Jingpo Lake 100 RMB, Volcano Crater Forest Park 60 RMB, students remember to bring your ID Wear good anti-slip shoes! Fallen leaves are slippery, safety first! The morning mist over the lake is a must-see, don’t miss it. Practical tips: 1. It’s cold in the morning and evening, bring warm clothes 2. Fully charge your devices for photography anytime 3. Bring some snacks, few options inside the scenic areas 4. Mosquito repellent is a must 5. Wear bright clothes for better photos 6. Check the weather; rainy days have their own charm 7. Bring a drone for stunning aerial shots 8. Try Guobaorou (sweet and sour pork) and iron pot stew 9. No need to worry about altitude sickness, enjoy your trip 10. Protect the environment, take your trash with you The autumn in Mudanjiang truly moved me to tears; its beauty is hard to capture in pictures. Are you also touched by these colors?
