Tumen One-Day Tour, check out this guide for a trip to this small border town

Tumen is a small border town next to Yanji, just over 10 minutes away by high-speed train. The main attraction in Tumen is the railway border gate, boundary markers, and you can overlook North Korea from Nanyang Pavilion, feeling the decades of stagnation just across the river. 🚗 How to get there: Get off at the high-speed train station and queue for a taxi, 100 yuan can charter a car to 1-5 five check-in spots, because we decided to go to the Century Tribe on a whim, we added 160 yuan for a full tour and direct return to Yanji; 📷 How to play: Follow the route to visit 7 check-in spots: 1️⃣ Railway National Gate 2️⃣ Highway National Gate 3️⃣ No. 86 Boundary Marker 4️⃣ Nanyang Pavilion Observation Deck 5️⃣ Tumen Bridge (admission fee 25 yuan/person) 6️⃣ G331's 1314 Love Boundary Marker 7️⃣ Century Tribe (admission fee 40 yuan/person) Picture 2: The building complex on the left is China's Tumen, and on the right is North Korea's Nanyang County; Picture 3: Lucky to see the super mini train that is said to run once a week (zoom in to see); Picture 4: The windows on the opposite buildings are all sealed with plastic sheets, and most of the roofs are covered with tiles as a 'facade project'. Picture 5: At the highway port, buy a 'China Tumen Port National Ticket' for 25 yuan, and you can walk onto the Tumen Bridge. Now you can only go as far as the iron gate shown in picture 6. This road was an old road from China to North Korea, which has now been replaced by a new and wider road next to it; Picture 6: No. 87 Boundary Marker, on the way to Tumen Bridge, avoiding the crowded No. 86 Boundary Marker for photos; Picture 7: Love Boundary Marker, you will pass by on the way to the Century Tribe; The Century Tribe has a wooden house over 140 years old, built in 1877. According to research, it is the only existing Chao-style wooden-tile structure in China, representing the architectural style of the Chao people from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the Republic of China. Here you can take a set of photos in Korean ethnic clothing
