Things to do in Changchun

This last week of summer vacation, we took the elderly and children to Jingyuetan, a true natural oxygen bar! Walking along the wooden boardwalks in the forest at the end of August was exceptionally cool, avoiding the summer crowds and making for a very comfortable visit. The scenic area is huge, but thankfully there are two shuttle bus options: open-top sightseeing buses and enclosed air-conditioned buses. The services are frequent, making it very convenient to hop on and off – usually only a few minutes' wait, which is great for seniors and children. We also tried the electric boats; the water activities were very reasonably priced and affordable. The family leisurely strolled through the forest and lake, stopping whenever we wanted, without getting tired or rushed, and had a wonderful time. Highly recommend this place for a family trip to relax and breathe in the fresh air!

I found out from an online search that the top spot on the Changchun night view rankings is actually the Changchun Zoo and Botanical Garden. The night tickets are more expensive than the day tickets, so I was curious and decided to check it out. Entry starts at 4:30 pm, and the welcoming dance is very lively. The park is themed around Journey to the West, and with the lighting effects, it feels like a lantern festival. The park has stages in many places for various performances and interactions with visitors. It was my first time visiting a zoo and botanical garden and I didn't see any animals because they had already finished their get off work hours at night.

The entire scenic area is quite large. It's recommended to allow 2 hours for the Imperial Palace Museum, and the outer area also includes the Northeast Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall and the M+ Park. Therefore, it's advisable to allow at least 3 hours for the entire scenic area.

The parks in our great northern region are truly spacious! The "Soaring Through China" attraction at Changchun Film Studio Century City was so breathtaking and exhilarating—an immersive experience of flying through the air! I wanted more after watching it, but unfortunately, time was too tight for a second visit. Here are some tips: Plan your time well in advance, ask the staff for directions to find the best queueing routes, and queue at different times for each attraction, taking breaks in between. Don't rush; this will allow you to enjoy the experience at your own pace 😊. Unfortunately, we were having so much fun that my child's ID card slipped and got lost! Haha, a small regret. Good luck to everyone coming after us! 😂

This place has a strong sense of history, attracting many middle-aged and elderly visitors who are nostalgic. The exhibits include film introductions from various eras, primarily using pictures, text, and video materials. It would be great if more filming locations could be added.

It was so much fun, much more fun than Harbin! The wait wasn't long either. Around 7 PM, I met some locals who were shivering inside, stamping their feet in the cold. I told them I'd been there for nine hours already, haha! I even bought a giant sword!

Tianding Mountain Family Fun Experience (approx. 200 words) A weekend trip to Tianding Mountain with the kids! We tried everything – the cable car, the mountain bikes, and the double-track toboggan – a truly immersive experience! The sightseeing cable car winds through the lush greenery, offering panoramic views of the meadows and the city skyline from the summit, all while enjoying a refreshing mountain breeze. The brightly colored mountain bikes are self-controlled and incredibly fun, with winding curves that kept the kids laughing non-stop. Children under 130cm can ride with adults. The high-altitude double toboggan is thrilling yet relaxing, with its undulating tracks and fantastic forest atmosphere. A package deal combining all three attractions offers even better value. The park has excellent facilities, including a lawn for camping and relaxation. The staff are patient and helpful, and safety measures are in place. It's a great choice for a family outing near Changchun!

Lokasinya sangat strategis. Di depannya bahkan ada Wanda Plaza, Changchun Film Studio dan jalur kereta 54. Dalam Mall nya sendiri, landscapingnya cukup menarik. Terasa seperti tempat wisata di area pegunungan.

🇨🇳Changchun, the City of Sculpture in China: Creating Future Cultural Heritage @ World Sculpture Park & ​​Museum

As far as I know, there are 6 permanent exhibition halls, and the rest are mobile exhibition halls (?). 4F houses the Duan Chenggui Calligraphy Museum, exhibiting replicas of Su Shi's "Ode to the Spring Scenery of Dongting Lake and Ode to the Pine Wine of Zhongshan." 3F contains the Jilin Provincial Modern History Museum, covering topics from the resistance against Tsarist Russia to the Xinhai Revolution, from the anti-Fengtian uprising to the War of Resistance against Japan and the liberation. A detailed look will inspire respect for these figures. 2F is dedicated to the ancient history of Jilin Province, from the dawn of civilization to the elegance of the Han and Tang dynasties, from the grandeur of Songmo to the splendor of the Ming and Qing dynasties. It covers the people of Yushu and Antu, the Buyeo Kingdom and Goguryeo, and the Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. The only drawback is that many artifacts in the Han and Tang Dynasty exhibition hall are on loan, resulting in a less than ideal experience. History buffs should definitely not miss it.
