What are the recommended tourist attractions in Changbai Mountain?

1. Tianchi, a quiet beauty

Changbai Mountain Tianchi is located in the southeast of Jilin Province and is the boundary lake between China and North Korea. The water surface is 2,150 meters above sea level, so it is called "Tianchi". The highest volcanic lake in the world.

Changbai Mountain Tianchi is located at the top of the volcanic cone at the main peak of Changbai Mountain. It is the largest crater lake and the deepest lake in China. Tianchi is surrounded by strange peaks and the water is green and clear. Every other year, a strange scene will happen: fire will burst out of the water, because the material in the Tianchi water breaks through the surface of the water, creating flames. Tianchi in Changbai Mountain is the source of the Songhua River. It is a huge natural reservoir with a depth of 373 meters in the center. It is surrounded by many scenic spots such as Xiaotianchi Jinghu Lake and Changbai Hot Spring Zone.

It was once widely rumored that there was a monster in the lake, which caused a sensation and remains a mystery to this day.

In ancient times, Changbai Mountain was originally a volcano. According to historical records, it has erupted three times since the 16th century. When the volcano erupted and ejected a large amount of lava, the crater formed a basin. Over time, the water accumulated and formed a lake, which became Tianchi. The water in Tianchi comes first from rain and snow water, and secondly from underground spring water. Tianchi Lake is deep and clear, like a piece of magnificent jasper inlaid among the mountains, making people feel like they are in a fairyland. However, the climate in Changbai Mountain is changing rapidly, making Tianchi looming, so it creates a wonderful scene of Tianchi "when the water is shining, it is beautiful when the sky is clear, and the mountain is empty and rainy". The water from Tianchi overflows from a small gap, flows out for more than 1,000 meters, and pours down from the cliff, becoming the famous Changbai Mountain Waterfall. There are many hot springs in Tianchi, forming several hot spring belts. In the middle of winter, the steam is steaming, the ice melts and the snow melts, so some people call Tianchi Wenliangbo.

2. Soak in the hot springs and enjoy the snow scenery

Changbai Mountain has become an area with a relatively concentrated distribution of hot springs in my country due to its volcanic fractures and many strata. There are dozens of hot springs in Changbai Mountain. Due to the different terrains, the water volume and temperature are also different.

Changbai Hot Spring Group's water flow, water temperature, water quality and other dynamics are constant throughout the year. It can be called the best hot spring in my country. Its high water temperature, good water quality, large flow and dense distribution are better than Huaqing Hot Spring, known as "the hot spring water washes away the fat", and Kunming's Anning Hot Spring, known as "the best hot spring in the world", can be compared with Tengchong Hot Spring, known as the "Geothermal Museum".

Changbai Hot Spring is known as the "Holy Water" and has high medical and health care value. After testing, the spring water contains dozens of beneficial elements and minerals. Changbai Mountain Hot Spring Bath has the "No. 1 reputation in the world". It is known as "One Bath" and "Tianba".

3. Stroll through the primeval forest and enjoy the sea of ??flowers in the mountains

The forest sea at the bottom of the Changbai Valley is 5 kilometers east of the Changbai Mountain Ice Field and on the north side of the Dongtian Waterfall. The valley wall is 50-60 meters high and the trees are divided into three layers. This crater forest is named Linhai at the bottom of the valley and is commonly known as the underground forest. The valley bottom is 2,500 to 3,000 meters long from north to south and contains many coniferous forests. It is one of the important landscapes of Changbai Mountain and is also the first scenic spot after entering the mountain from the north.

The valley bottom forest is the lowest scenic spot in Changbai Mountain. Standing on the edge of the valley bottom forest, you can have a panoramic view of the entire valley bottom forest, and you can smell the unique fresh smell of the forest. At the bottom of the valley, forests, seas, and green waves billow, ancient trees are towering, and boulders are scattered at random. There are natural stone steps on the east wall that lead down to the valley floor and into the primeval forest that blocks out the sun. You can see moss and lichen clinging to the rocks, and you can hear the gurgling sound of the White River, which is mysterious and quiet.
