Early autumn northern slope of Changbai Mountain Guide
September 14, 2003 we boarded the Dandong - Shirakawa of the 4262 sub-passenger trains began a coveted trip to Changbai Mountain. (4262 Ci passenger train was originally Dandong - quanyang, but the three-month extension of the annual summer 7,8,9 to the White River. Dandong is a 5:45 pm departure, to Shenyang is 10:05 pm. Arrived in Shirakawa is the end point 23:28 pm. full of some 900 kilometers. hard-seat fare 59 yuan.) this season, not many passengers on board, in addition to meihekou to this one slightly more Hunjiang point, other times is basically a long seat placed lie. Before their departure, by "weather line" website about the recent weather in the region of the Changbai Mountains, focusing on cloud conditions, it is very important. To focus on is to look at Tianchi in Changbai Mountain, if the catch up with the cloudy, dense fog enveloped the Han Tianchi can not see it, but a trip to White, no use of time and money. I think, to play in Changbai Mountain is the best season in mid-September; 1, more than sunny. 2, fewer tourists. 3; summer passenger peak has passed, the train Exalted less.
Shirakawa, after 23:28 pm that night due to late arrival, that the West live in a plaza at the station called "forest Heung Yuen Brigade Hotel", 20 yuan / double room, clean and tidy.
September 15 to get up as early as 6:00, the hotel people must help us to Changbai Mountain car. (They gave the owner Contact tourists can get a rebate, and they now offer visitors the higher the rebate to take more.) Because we are well prepared, so euphemistically words declined. Introduce visitors to call the previous owner - Hanxiu Lin, (who later I would like to special presentations) that he immediately drove to come to meet us, an exchange with the other six people towards the Changbai Mountain. To the northern slope of the Mountain Gate, and we would have liked the method introduced by the previous visitors to bypass the gate into the fare-beating may be trying to stop the owner Hanxiu Lin. (Probably it might affect his business. Because of Changbai Mountain Protected Areas Authority, who knew him.) Tickets are 60 yuan / person. Gate all the way straight down into the station exit. Shirakawa from 2 to about 50 km down Station, is a walk through the woodlands of the road, good road conditions. Pour point Koudao peak astronomical peak of about 10 km. Today (September 15) from Changbai Mountain Protected Areas Authority to forest fire prevention in the name of the Authority does not allow addition of protected areas other than the vehicles exit the station down the main peak. To view the main peak Tianchi, only by their car, and the way to draft and pass the black spots are not viewing platform Zhelia parking, up later, from the car park to the peak and then down to the parking lot to see Tianchi only to 30 minutes , tight busy! 80 yuan / person. Exclusive dealing, government-run style a bit too harsh. Walking up to be heard for at least 6 hours round trip. Injustice Na! If Early one day, you can directly reach the summit by Han Xiulin time the car will not be only 30 minutes, and can draft and the viewing platform in a dark parking Zhelia sightseeing attractions, and can save a lot of money.
Vehicles in the sharp turns of the steep mountain roads open fast, people in the car swings around the heart to mention voice in the eyes. However, protected areas, the Board heard that the car never appeared before the incident. After the summit to see the scope of activities Tianchi very small, wind sand really big mouthful of sand, and the wind to see Tianchi. May be due to strong winds, Tianchi not as I imagined the blue sky to clear water, but some gray Frontiers Frontiers of the sky. But the towering peaks, vast panoramic view Tianchi. Tianchi Mother Nature, Tin Wah to build is really stunning. 2,500-meter-high peaks surrounded by nearly 10 square kilometers of water, 20 billion cubic meters of storage capacity, with an average water depth of more than 200 meters from the volcanic eruption of such a Tianchi created by itself is a miracle. Northeast Sanjiang Songhua, Tumen River, Yalu River originate. On the ground, saw the feeling is not the same, it is impossible to describe my pen to describe. Themselves personally to make a little bar. Value!
Down the peak back down Station, then by waiting there Hanxiu Lin's car about 5 minutes to the hot springs and waterfalls parking lot. Spa boiled eggs 10 yuan 6 is here. 15 yuan / person tickets to see a waterfall. Here is the Northeast first waterfall. 25 yuan / person Tickets are climbing the "mountain hiking corridor" to the concept of Tianchi Tianchi splashing water's edge. Tianchi here to close all the way along the waterfall next to the 2,000 m tread stairs, tired! Look at the water's edge with the ascent to see Tianchi Tianchi is another style. Scope of activities of large, very wide field of vision. Here indeed is the clear water and blue sky, water depth of 16 meters of visibility, Tianchi can not help but want to Pick up the clear water, drink one. Here, about 100 meters wide beach. In the tidal water's edge facing the shore with the waves slightly Le Tianchi water, relaxed and happy, loudly shouting: "This is the Heavenly Lake, Tianchi Hello, we have come!" My mood is good beyond words. Here from Hot Springs - Waterfall - "Mountain Corridor" - Heavenly Lake Waterfront a tour and then back to the hot springs and waterfalls parking lot spent three hours the whole, very enjoying to play. Physical extension of the less fortunate should be an appropriate time to be. Return via the small Tianchi, underground forest, Hulin Park, pumice Linyuan, Changbai Mountain Museum, the beautiful pine park attractions. In addition to beautiful pine park, should have their fees ranging from whether their choice, so long as you want, Han Xiulin will be sent, and no extra charges imposed.
Hanxiu Lin sent us back to the station later admitted, "Lin Heung Yuen Brigade Hotel." It is here, just 20 meters from the railway station waiting room, and as early as 4:08 of the return journey the train, your heart Feel side to sleep, then they will tell you to get up and drive times to ensure the coachman.
