However, there are very few buses in both places, and there is usually one at 8 o'clock in the morning. Yanji South Passenger Terminal has a one-day tour bus to Changbai Mountain every day, which goes directly to Changbai Mountain Tianchi North Slope Scenic Area, departing at 5:30 in the morning. The one-way fare is about 55 yuan and the journey takes about 4 hours.

Chartered taxi: There are taxis in Songjianghe Town and Erdaobaihe Town. Generally, a taxi from the town to the train station costs 10 yuan. You can also take a taxi to the scenic spot. Generally, it can be negotiated but don’t make a timetable. From Songjiang to Xipo Scenic Area, the cost is about 140-150 yuan per car and takes more than half an hour.

Self-driving

Please pay attention to safety when driving in winter, especially if you have never driven on snowy roads.

The scheduled destination depends on the hotel and air tickets. A one-way ticket from Shanghai to Changbai Mountain costs about 3,500 for three people. This price can be used for international flights. Then check that the air ticket from Shanghai to Shenyang is only 1,700 for three people. In turn, look up car rental information. If you rent a car from Shenyang for a week, it only costs 1,000 yuan. Instead of a direct flight, we will fly to Shenyang and drive to Changbai Mountain. First, book a ticket on Juneyao Airlines, fly to Shenyang at 8:20 in the morning, and then find the cheapest Volkswagen Lavida on CAR Inc. The one-day rental is only 78 yuan, and the six-day rental plus service fee is 800 yuan . For insurance purposes, I purchased a 300 yuan disclaimer insurance, so that if something goes wrong with the car, I don't have to pay any money, no matter if it's my fault or not. The total was 1,100 RMB, minus the 100 RMB coupon given when new users registered, and I finally paid 1,000 RMB online. To put it bluntly, it's all about money. I paid online, so I just needed to take my driver's license, ID card, and credit card to the store to pick up the car. This process takes about ten minutes. Check the car to see if there are any scratches on the outside and the mileage is about the same. If you are careful, you can check if there are any problems with the interior. The car I rented was shown as a 2016 model and looked new. I paid it off after driving 32,830km. Another thing is to adapt to local driving habits and drive slowly.

It turns out that it is really convenient to take care of children by car, saving a lot of trouble. This will be described later. When renting a car, I had to consider renting a safety seat. When I booked the car, I asked the car rental company. There were very few safety seats in Shenyang and the quality was not good, so I decided to repair them myself. I found a safety seat rental company on Taobao that has operations in many cities in China. I paid the deposit and rent online, and they were sent to the hotel lobby when I arrived in Shenyang, which was very worry-free. The safety seat is from Britax, the deposit is 1800, and the six-day rental is 230. Later I asked about other cities in China, such as Jiangsu, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Anhui, Henan, Shaanxi, Kunming, Shenzhen, and Fuzhou. There are two self-driving routes from Shenyang to Changbai Mountain, both of which are high-speed and there are not many cars on the road. Pay attention to speed limit prompts. Just search it on Baidu map. Basically, we stopped when we saw the rest area. The 460-kilometer journey takes more than 5 hours. The rest area is very simple, just a supermarket bathroom and a gas station. There are no options in restaurants so it is important to bring enough water and food. Anyway, the car is not afraid of sinking. Car rental companies do not provide dash cams. If you're worried about something going wrong, it's best to bring your own. The car charger chooses two USB ports, one for the driving recorder and one for the mobile phone. I brought a driving recorder and a GoPro. Basically all are equipped with GoPro to record the entire process. One is to ensure safety, and the other is to take away the materials on the road and come back to record them. Just use your mobile phone map to navigate. Remember to turn on the electronic dog and speed measurement functions. The quality of oil products varies across the country, with 92 and 95 in Shanghai, 93 and 97 in Northeast China, and 98 in Shanxi. Basically, rented cars are filled with low-grade oil. Just ask when renting a car. Refueling in places like Changbai Mountain is definitely more expensive than in big cities, and gas stations are not open 24 hours a day. It's best to know the opening hours in advance. When you encounter a traffic policeman on the road, don't be nervous or panic. Give your driver's license and driving license (when renting a car, you will get the driving license in a small bag.) Give it to the police and make it clear that this is a rented car. Generally, the police will let you go directly, and the car rental procedures must be complete. Don't worry, old man.

Warm reminder: Be sure to pay attention to safety when driving with children. Never drive at excessive speed. Check tires when parked. When two people take turns driving, they can prepare anti-fatigue drinks such as Red Bull and coffee. I put my nose in my nostril (if you don’t know what it is, you can search it on Taobao). If one isn't enough, I insert two. If you are really tired, you should go to the service area to rest in time.
