Longwan National Forest Park is located in the southeast of Huinan County, Jilin Province, and belongs to the Longgang Mountain Range of the Changbai Mountain System. It has rich natural landscapes and unique geological features. The park has a vast forest area and rich and diverse vegetation. The trees are tall and straight, with luxuriant branches and leaves. The air in the forest is fresh and rich in negative oxygen ions. In autumn, the maple leaves are red, and 40% of the trees in the mountains are dressed in red. The leaves of various colors such as light yellow, deep yellow, light red, bright red, big red, and dark red are intertwined, and there are still green trees interspersed among them. It seems that the natural painting master uses the mountains as paper and the trees as ink to draw charming pictures. The colorful, poetic and picturesque, like a palette overturned by God, constitutes a beautiful autumn landscape.

I really can't enjoy the crowded trips during May Day - I still prefer places close to nature - so I chose Huinan as my May Day travel destination - Dalong Bay, Diaoshuihu Waterfall, and Sanjiaolong Bay are the main attractions - in comparison, Dalong Bay is really worth a slow visit - there are hardly any tourists - strolling along the boardwalk by the lake - sitting down to enjoy the breeze, look at the lake, and admire the flowers when tired - unhurried and calm - this is the feeling of vacation - Diaoshuihu Waterfall is also good - but as a native of Guizhou who is used to seeing dozens of meters high waterfalls - seeing this few meters high small waterfall inevitably leaves one a bit stunned - personally, I find Sanjiaolong Bay uninteresting - didn't even take photos.

Da Longwan, a volcanic crater lake, is so clear that you can see to the bottom, and there are even fish, very small fish. The color of the lake water changes constantly with the angle of the light entering, and at the same time, it reflects the autumn maple leaves on the surrounding shores, creating a dazzling array of colors, as if God had spilled his palette.
