Winter Beauty of Jilin

This was a last minute decision. We decided to visit Jilin for a two days one night trip from Harbin. We were not disappointed. We witnessed the five stars rime in the early morning the very next day. Such an amazing experience. The sheer beauty of the place together with its rime makes this place such a charm. We took the less travelled route and went with a Homestay off the beaten path. The owner was so helpful and experience , he brought us to a place that is absolutely 0 tourist. Here are some ideas of how we travelled there. Bought a train ticket from Harbin to Jilin station in advance. Once we arrived at Jilin, decided to take a Didi ride into the wusong lake area. Costing us about rmb70. Going in to the Homestay area was relatively easy. Coming out to the train station was quite a challenge but fret not, as the Homestay owner helped us arranged the transport the very next day. Had our dinner at the house after witnessing a spectacular sunset as shown in the photo. All photos are taken with iPhone. Please bear with the pixels. Woke up next morning greeted with a lovely morning magical moment near the river. Best of all, we did not need to pay for any entrance tickets at all. Like I said, this was off the beaten path. Took plenty of photos before the rime melts away. On our way back, we witnessed the traditional wedding ceremony that was the icing on the tour itself. What a way to wrapped up the trip to Jilin. Such a remarkable experience. Never have we witnessed a wedding with a groom on a horse ride itself. Thank you for such wonderful experience. We will come back. #wusongriverviews #jilin 💞Reasons to Recommend: every tour brings you snow town and other famous places. This is the place with less crowd and the beauty is definitely 5 stars.
