Traveling to Changbai Mountain, is it a waste if you don't see Tianchi? This guide will leave you with no regrets

"If the mountain doesn't come to see me, I will go to see the mountain" 🏔 To encounter the winter-exclusive frozen Tianchi, I crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to Changbai Mountain! When the off-road vehicle 🚙 broke through the clouds and reached the mountaintop, the quiet and deep blue lake instantly took my breath away... The "Mirror of the Sky" lives up to its name! 👑 📍 Must-visit spots: ✅ Changbai Mountain Tianchi (Heaven Lake) Address: Chibei District, Antu County, Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, Jilin Province Best winter viewing spot: Tianwen Peak Observation Deck Opening hours: 6:30-16:30 (winter) ✅ Ice Hanging Waterfall Group Address: Northern Scenic Area of Changbai Mountain Best viewing time: December to March The crystal-clear ice pillars are spectacular and dreamy ✨ 📸 Photo tips: ✔️ Blue ice surface + white snow scenery is perfect for Japanese-style photos ✔️ Wearing light-colored or red clothes is most eye-catching ✔️ Best to shoot in the early morning mist! So ethereal~ ✨ Practical tips: 1. It is recommended to book the off-road vehicle tour in advance (cost about ¥300/person) 2. Temperature at the top is -30℃, gloves and scarves are a must! 3. Bring a thermos to drink hot water anytime 4. Prepare warm patches to prevent your phone from shutting down The first time I saw the frozen Tianchi, I was truly speechless with amazement 🥲 This intoxicating blue is worth traveling thousands of miles for! I hope every dream chaser can meet the most beautiful mountains and seas~
