🚗Getting there- It’s right behind Wanda Yue hotel, within Wanda International Resort, you could swipe your skiing or snowboarding card to go on the Cableway🚠. Enjoy the view of the mountain as the cableway slowly ascends. The cableway doesn’t stop moving; reaction time and balance when jumping off is essential. If you are staying in the resort, it will cost you nothing to get on the cableway for a short trip to the top of the mountain🏔 and back down. ❄️Attractions: A container converted into a cute café (FENDI) with lovely views. I went on a sunny ☀️day, so it was like sitting in a greenhouse. The glass finish gives you a view you can’t get enough of. I was shown pictures of how it looks at night; snowflakes all over the window with some neon lights beaming through from afar. Behind the container café , there is a slope🗻 for snowboarders🏂, and on the side of that slope you find these snow kissed pine trees 🌲 that create a lovely backdrop on your photos. The cafe has SQUID Game cookies 🍪 to keep busy while you wait for your mates to snowboard or just to relax and enjoy the sunshine. Costs: ☕️a cup of coffee costs about 35元. I’ll just say have a Starbucks kind of budget for a meal or drink here. They also have beers 🍻 with limited variety. 📸@gnett_l on Instagram #skiadventure #snowmountain #tripblazers #urbanexplorer explorer #livingmybestlife #tigeryear2022

#christmasgiveaway #skiing Seeing the white snow on the mountain, I just remember that I was quite intoxicated, flying on the snowy mountain by snowmobile. At that moment, I felt I belonged to nature. Skiing let me enjoy the nature, no matter how bad I skied, the snow brought me clean enjoyment. Closing your eyes and listening to the wind whistling in your ears was an unprecendented experience. Although my feet are very tired, I still spend 100 yuan to experience the fun of the black trail, skiing in the Western slope is not as funny as the North slope, but the experience of wild snow really made me crazy. Snowmobile service is honestly not very good, although it is done to send you back at any time, but the waiting time is too long, we are not happy to stay for a long time.

#changbaishan Wanda resort for the win! Short but fun ski runs, and only 220rmb (including ski hire) for a day lift pass. Lifts open from 9am to 3.30pm daily. #merrychristmas#wintergetaway#instagramworthydestinations#decembertravel

1442 steps to the Changbai Mountain West Slope Tianchi early climbed 1442 steps, the level reached the top of the west slope of Changbai Mountain Tianchi at an altitude of 2470 meters. Don't underestimate the 1442 steps. If you are in a hurry, you will still pant, and you have to go down the road. Today's luck is also good. The West Slope Observation Deck is closer to the Tianchi, more open and more beautiful.

In the Wanda resort area, there is a wow cool snow kingdom, I asked them why they want to call wow cool, they said, "Wow! Cool!" If you play, then you can play enough in Wow Cool 1 Its a day, banana boat, snowmobile, off-road drift, etc. We have chosen one of them for a limited time, driving a snowmobile and galloping in the vast snow. Driving a snowmobile is like riding a motorcycle on the snow. As long as you have a simple driving foundation, you can control the mechanical beasts right away. Although the snowmobile looks like a giant, it is very easy to operate. It is not difficult for beginners. Ride it and walk through a silver forest. When the initial tensions fade away, you will find yourself sitting on a snowmobile that you have never driven before. That excitement is an extremely exciting experience that makes you want to stop. The winter wilderness is as magical as the one described in the story. When you cross the snowmobile and enter the forest, the engine roars between the legs brings the magical feeling. New annotations. You will be amazed by the beautiful scenery around you. On the vast ice sheet, you will feel your own smallness and natural magic. Ride through the snow slopes, cross the jungle, and fly between the infinite whites.

How to take a photo of the United States and the United States in the winter, we must first choose a pool that has both winter snow and warmth. This cold and hot, so that the warm pool is steaming, it will bring its own charm. Secondly, in the choice of clothing, we refuse to be bloated, you can choose some more elegant dresses, or shorter bikinis, the greater the seasonal contrast, the more you can make the photos more red. At the same time, you can have some accessories with winter feelings, such as hats, to make the sense of the season stronger. In the selection of the scene, do not scissor the hand, the elegant photos of the scent of the film to shoot, it is recommended to shoot outside the pool, if you can bear the snow, it will be different feelings. After shooting outside the pool, go into the pool and shoot, because if you first wet yourself, shooting outside the pool, the water droplets on the body can easily form a thin ice quickly, very cold. The angle of shooting in the pool is very large, you can come back with a close-up, you can also combine beautiful scenes with beautiful scenes, or play with pool water, bathe in the sun, etc. In short, you must combine all the scenes that you can combine, you can Water, it can be snow, or a tree, a ray of sunshine. . . shooting time can choose about 3 or 4 o'clock, because the winter sunset is earlier, this time point light is not very strong, it takes about 4 o'clock, maybe you can still encounter the sunset blush, the photo taken It will be very beautiful.

The Jinjiang Grand Canyon of Changbai Mountain is formed by the volcanic accumulation after more than 1,000 years of fault tectonic action and water erosion erosion. This is an extremely spectacular Grand Canyon. Because the landforms are mainly formed by the valleys and valleys, the slopes on both sides of the canyon, especially on the banks of the Bottom River, are extremely steep. There are dense forests growing on both sides of the canyon. The trees are straight and thick. Due to the low temperature and humidity on the valley, the old forest is covered with old white silk, moss and mushrooms, and the color is quietly spread. Coupled with years of cold weathering, the ice edge rock pillars in the canyon have formed a colorful and magnificent natural landscape in the years of wind and rain erosion.

Changbai Mountain Grand Canyon, the real forest snowfield.

I was first picked up by car from the hotel to the office and then with a snowmobile from the office to the igloo. The ride to the igloos was amazing. It was like riding through the a snow maze in the bushes🌳. The rider was kind enough to stop on the open field to take some quick shots.

And it was WORTH IT! I was born in tropical country so the sight of snowy mountain excites me so much! Never ever tried skiing before and I must say, it was fun only on a gentle slope. The speed is apparently not my thing 😂 Fell so many times (in so many different positions) but happily reporting I’m back without serious injury (expect sore knees and calves). Overall happy with the experience and read through some more details below that might be useful if you plan to go! Tips: 1. Check weather forecast and if possible choose a sunny day to visit! You can see the difference from my photos, the day I tried ski it was snowing badly but the next day it was all blue sky and sunny! 2. They have WechatMiniApp to hire a professional coach for different levels (ski or snowboard), but usually full on same day. BOOK BEFORE YOU GO! Search 长白山度假区社员 on Wechat. Do not choose hotel’s suggestions, illegal coach and definitely not safe for beginners (don’t fall for the cheaper price). 3. Although most hotels are international chains, it is not so easy to communicate in English. Equip yourself with basic conversational skill and vocabulary (or just ask them to send messages to Wechat so you can translate) 4. Ski gears: boots, boards, and helmet are usually included in hotel room’s price (check when you book your hotel). Additional rental: jacket & pants ¥60, goggles ¥40. And you’ll need ¥2000 as deposit to activate Ski Card (used for all these rentals, taking ski lift, magic carpet, and gondola). It’ll be fully refunded on the last day. ———————— Getting There - take a flight to Baishan Changbaishan Airport (NBS) and there are red shuttle buses on parking lot taking you to most hotels (just tell the driver which hotel are you going to, they’ll point to the right bus). Around 20mins drive to hotels on Wanda Ski Resort. 2hours+ to North Slope’s hotel, like Crowne Plaza. Attractions - Ski Resort Hotels - plenty of options depending on your budget and preferences. • closest to Ski Entrance: Wanda Hotel / Hyatt & Park Hyatt. • closest to Hannasan Hotspring: Hyatt & Park Hyatt. • Westin & Sheraton location is slightly farther to main ski entrance but still walkable. • Holiday Inn has its own cable car to the main area, but rather far and also directly on a high slope. Definitely not for beginners. • Crowne Plaza is in North Slope. Has its own hotspring and ski area. • Swissôtel is one of the popular choice, too, but I didn’t see it during my whole trip (I stayed at Sheraton and spotted all above hotels mentioned, except Crowne Plaza as it is on different area) Food & Restaurants - Korean Foods (yes, because it is bordering North Korea!) and 东北菜 North East Chinese Cuisines. Shopping - ski clothes and accessories. Ginseng and medicinal mushrooms. Black pears. Vegan friendliness - OK! Hotels’s breakfasts are fine. Restaurants are generally happy to modify dishes per your request. #skiadventure #changbaishan #bucketlist #chinatrip #skiresorts

#tripaway Looking at the foliage makes me feel like I am back at home. Good to see some of nature's fireworks in full display. The food wasn't bad either! #tripaway

On the west slope of the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, I saw that Tianchi was bluer and brighter than that seen on the north slope yesterday. The misty clouds were gently stroking from the lake. It was a paradise on earth and a paradise. Its not enough to look at it for more than an hour. The expressiveness of the photo is obviously weak. Only when you are there, can you really feel its beauty.

In the summer, the Wanda Town of Changbai Mountain is relatively quiet compared to the summer.

In the depths of Changbai Mountain, there is a little-known spectacle of the landform: the Jinjiang Grand Canyon was formed by the earthquake caused by the volcanic eruption of Changbai Mountain in the early years. The canyon stretches for 14 kilometers, on the steep cliffs on both sides, the rock formations, the thousands of walls, and some of the nearly vertical slopes, even the snow can not fall, there is a stream flowing through the bottom of the valley, called Jinjiang. The Jinjiang Grand Canyon after the winter snow is even more a feeling of being in the snowy sea of the forest. The beauty is not like the human world.

My little brother is not asking for a marriage. I am wearing a snowboard I am going to ski in Changbai Mountain every winter. I finally learned the veneer this year. Although it is now in March, the Changbai Mountain snow period has not stopped. Whether it's the snow during the day or the lights at night, it will bring an extraordinary experience. When it comes to the shape of the snow, nothing is more handsome than wearing a snow mirror and wearing a snowboard. The snowboarder jumps and shoots from a low place, just like a ski master.

The forest resources of the Changbai Mountains give the ski a unique speciality and mystery. It is located in the golden ice and snow latitude belt, with a romantic name, powder snow ~ powder snow, not pink snow, but a kind of powder like snow. Hold it in your hand and gently slide it off your fingertips. Powder snow is the best in the snow, naturally attracting skiers to come here. Sliding in the centuries-old jungle, if you are in a foreign country, come to the ski resort, you must naturally come into contact with this snow. From the Park Hyatt lobby along the left side corridor, you can reach the hotel's ski house. Whether you are staying at Park Hyatt or Hyatt, the zero-distance ski pass is a VIP treatment for the guests. When the ski house is replaced with equipment, it is ready to go. Unique winter warm climate, the right ratio of temperature and humidity, make the ski resort here one of the rare ski resorts in the world, you don't have to worry about being a skiing white, because there are professional coaches here. Take you and experience the natural beauty of Changbai Mountain. When you can slide down the snowy road, you will fall in love with that feeling. The birch forest around you, the snow drifting, passing by you is freedom. Its also passion, maybe its just a moment, so you dont consciously fall in love with this white poppies.

Compared to the north slope of the rock formation, the west slope of Changbai Mountain is the best area to watch the Tianchi. The development of Xipo is later than the northern slope, and the commercial atmosphere is much less. From the mountain gate, take the scenic bus, Mercedes-Benz in the thick broad-leaved forest, in the late autumn sunshine, red and yellow leaves light the autumn colors. In the face of the steep tiger's back ladder, more than 1,000 steps are waiting for us to conquer. The road to the mountain is not boring. The vertical distribution from the coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest to the coniferous forest, Yuehualin, and low shrubs is a living geography book. If you are lucky enough, you might even encounter a star. The peak of Xipo is wide and unobstructed, and the deep blue sky is quietly wandering between the cliffs. The clouds are flying around, and the surface of the water seems to rise up.

Most of the two banks of the Grand Canyon are steep cliffs with steep slopes, and the lava stone peaks stand among the canyons.

The skiing experience here is better, and it has also been taught by professional coaches. Almost all of our peers have made rapid progress in skiing control. Several girls who look weaker are not willing to skate on the primary snow trails on the magic carpet. They had to go to the intermediate ski trails. In fact, they played so badly at the intermediate ski trails that the night before we left, we slipped a night, and we were the last guests to leave.

When I started to experience and liked to live here, the snow here, the holiday here, the boys also said that the winter skiing in Changbai Mountain Wanda Resort is one of the best, the professional skiing partner said that if it is professional, There is still better, but in the resort, Changbai Mountain Wanda Resort is the first-class in China.
