Sun Mountain is located on the China-North Korea border in the southeast of Tumen City and is a spur of theChangbai Mountainrange. It is named for its sunny aspect and the rosy clouds that bathe it at dawn. The attraction features unique peaks, strange rocks, forests, and border scenery, blending ecological conservation with cultural landscapes to create a unique geographical advantage where you can "view two countries from one mountain." The mountain is composed of granite, which has weathered into figurative rocks likeBuddha's Hand Rockand Screen Rock. These, combined with century-old Korean pine and oak forests, create an ecological wonder of "trees growing from rocks and rocks embracing trees." From the observation deck at the southern foot of the main peak of Sun Mountain, you can overlook the winding Tumen River. The cityscape of Namyang, North Korea, is clearly visible across the river, where a railway bridge and a road bridge stand side by side, serving as a testament to the trade and cultural exchange between China and North Korea. Halfway up the mountain, Huayan Monastery is built against the slope, with its blue tiles and red pillars set against lush pines and cypresses. The monastery retains traditional Korean Buddhist architectural styles, and the morning bells and evening drums add to the serene atmosphere. The attraction features wooden boardwalks and hiking trails that connectLion-Watching Terrace, Immortal Terrace, and other attractions. Along the way, wild lilies, rhododendrons, and other vegetation bloom with the changing seasons.Tumen · 4.4km from downtown

College Town Wanghong Wall

4.1/5

College Town Wanghong Wall is located across the street from the main gate of Yanbian University and is actually the street-facing facade of an 8-story commercial building. The entire exterior wall is hung with over 70 neon signs in both Chinese and Korean, layered and covering the building, spanning 150m in length and 33m in height. After dark, the colorful signs light up one after another, resembling scrolling bullet comments in the night, which is why many tourists call it the "Bullet Comment Wall." Since 2021, this wall has gained rapid popularity through the Internet, and during the 2023 Spring Festival, it gained even more attention via short-video platforms. This neighborhood is also known as Yanji's "Little Seoul". On each sign, Chinese and Korean characters appear in pairs and are neatly arranged. The wall of light boxes serves as both a storefront facade and a direct testament to the city's ethnic culture. After sunset, before it gets completely dark, when streetlights and neon signs first turn on, and cool and warm lights intertwine, is the perfect time to take in the "bullet comment-style" light view created by the bilingual neon signs.Yanji · 29.4km from Tumen

Mao'er Mountain National Forest Park is named for its shape, which resembles a straw hat when viewed from a distance, and its main peak has an elevation of 517.2 m. The mountain is covered in layers of pine, elm, and poplar trees, along with various shrubs, with a forest coverage rate exceeding 70%, reaching 92.6% in the main peak area. Mushrooms can often be seen on the grassy areas among the trees, and small wild animals such as hares and squirrels inhabit the mountain. The park is adjacent to the Bu'erhatong River and the Hailan River, and is known as the "natural viewing platform" for these two rivers. Hike along the wooden boardwalk to the summit for a panoramic view of Yanji city. Looking south, the Hailan River winds like a silver ribbon between rice paddies and orchards. In summer, the paddy fields shimmer with white light, and in the fall, the mountains are painted with colorful foliage, perfectly reflecting the line, "Rows of fruit trees beneath Changbai Mountain, the fragrance of rice flowers along the Hailan River." Signs in the park are mostly bilingual in Chinese and Korean. At the foot of the mountain, you will also find the Korean Folk Village and the Yanji Dinosaur Museum, both of which are part of the Mao'er Mountain (Dinosaur) Cultural Tourism Resort.Yanji · 33.5km from Tumen

Almost everyone who visits Tumen will stop by this square. Firstly, it's very close to the boundary marker, and secondly, standing here offers a view of the opposite side of the border. Transportation from the train station is very convenient; don't worry about taxis, just take the bus.

Riguang Mountain is located six kilometers southeast of Tumen City. Standing on the main peak, you can clearly overlook Tumen City in China and Nanyang City in North Korea. Across the street, North Korean soldiers are singing military songs during drills, and their voices can be clearly heard. Dogs are barking constantly, smoke is curling, and the sun is bright and peaceful.

Tumen River Park is located at the Tumen Port highway border crossing. A stroll along the Tumen River is quite pleasant, with beautiful scenery on both sides. The border crossing itself is magnificent, offering a panoramic view of both countries. There are also many shops nearby, especially cafes. You can visit the border bridge, the border crossing gate, boundary marker No. 87, Tumen River Square, sculptures, and more. If you have extra time, you can even take a boat tour.

Although it's an artificial photo spot, it's still quite interesting because I've never seen architecture like this before. The garden is actually very small; you can walk through it in no time if you don't take photos, so you don't need to stay too long.

When traveling to Tumen, it is necessary to see the other side. The best location is at Riguang Mountain, and the best location at Riguang Mountain is Nanyang Pavilion. Take bus No. 9 to the terminal. Across the road is the entrance to Riguang Mountain. On the left hand side there is a plank road under construction. You need to climb over a wooden plank road railing to get to the end. This road is the shortest and you can quickly reach Nanyang Pavilion, which is actually a two-story viewing platform with a good view.

The "Instagrammable bullet screen wall" at Yanbian University is located at No. 1 University Town, 1188 Gongyuan Road, Yanji City, opposite the main gate of Yanbian University. The wall houses 75 shops in an 8-story commercial building with over 70 bilingual (Chinese and Korean) neon signs hanging on its exterior. The building is 150 meters long and 33 meters high, and when illuminated at night, it creates a "bullet screen" visual effect.

If you have time to visit Yanji, you absolutely must go to Mao'er Mountain, and you should definitely visit it in the early morning, as the scenery is exceptionally beautiful then. If you're lucky, you might even see the morning mist, which will give you a unique and special experience.

Hailantai is so beautiful! There are plays during the day and performances at night, as well as pigeons and peacocks. There are also various foods and games inside. Go in the afternoon and you won't miss anything. It's just a bit cold, so wear more clothes!
