Changbai Mountain will punish anyone who doesn't do their research...

Luckily, we prepared in advance 😜! We spent 4 days at Changbai Mountain, wow 🎉, it was so beautiful ❗️❗️❗️ Here's a super detailed guide for anyone planning to visit Changbai Mountain 👇 ❄️ Choose between Changbai Mountain Snow Ridge and Laolike Lake 😏, we chose Laolike Lake, wow 😍, you can enjoy the snowy scenery of the primeval forest 🌲, it's like walking into a fairy tale 🎄, the snow forest really exists ~ we hiked for 40 minutes to the station 🚉, there are so many scenic spots to take photos 📸, then we took a thrilling snowmobile ride to the center of the lake 😜, it was so exciting 👏! On the way back, we took a horse-drawn sleigh, which was also fun 😃! ❄️ Changbai Mountain West Slope Rime Drifting 🌊 We stayed on the north slope 😁, but we highly recommend the west slope's eco-drifting 🎢, the scenery is so beautiful! There is a lot of rime ❄️! The water is very calm, so it's easy to take photos 📷, the whole trip takes about 40 minutes 😎. We arrived at 6:30 am, there were fewer people at that time, so we could enjoy the scenery 😜! ❄️ Changbai Mountain Tianchi Lake 🏞 Oh 😔, unfortunately, we only got tickets for the north slope, and Tianchi Lake was closed 😭, but that's okay, we still visited other scenic spots at Changbai Mountain 😃. A reminder, warmers, heated insoles, gloves, hats, masks, and scarves 🧣 are essential! Make sure to book tickets in advance 🎫!!! Tickets are released 7 days in advance at 6:30 pm 😏, try to get tickets for both the north and west slopes, you can cancel the tickets if you decide not to go 😎. ❄️ Changbai Mountain Skiing 🎿 We chose Hongsongwang Ski Resort 🎯, which is very suitable for beginners 😁. Ski tickets include ski rentals 🎫, but we recommend renting ski suits, goggles, etc. in advance 😜. Important ❗️ Don't choose light colors, choose bright ski suits, they look great in photos 📸! ❄️ Changbai Mountain Hot Springs ♨️ We chose Linxi Hot Spring, which is a real hot spring on the mountain 💧, and it's more cost-effective 😎! Soaking in a hot spring at -20°C is so refreshing! It feels so relaxing 😌. ❄️ Erdaobaihe Edelweiss ❄️ We stayed at Erdaobaihe on the north slope, you must visit Edelweiss 😃! There are many activities that don't require tickets 🎠, the reindeer park is bigger and there are many reindeer, great for photos 📸! You can also play on the ice slide, there are also frozen roses and ice waterfalls, it's so interesting 😜!
