Changchun Jingyuetan Lake is truly an incredible travel destination!
Located in southeastern Changchun, it's the sister lake of Taiwan's Sun Moon Lake and is known as the "Pearl of the Green Sea." With a vast expanse and a forest coverage rate of 96%, Jingyuetan Lake offers a tranquil haven amidst the bustling city, a veritable "urban oxygen bar."
With crystal-clear waters and surrounded by 119 mountains, Jingyuetan gets its name from the crescent-shaped reservoir it holds. The interplay of mountains and water creates a picturesque scene. Strolling along the lake's edge, the gentle breeze, tinged with pine scent, will surely rejuvenate you. Each season offers its own unique charm. In spring, the grass and trees burst into green, and ice flowers break through the ice to bloom. Summer offers a perfect escape from the heat, with lotus flowers filling the pond. Autumn brings a vibrant array of colors to the mountains and forests. In winter, the lake transforms into a silvery kingdom of snow, offering captivating scenery and exciting skiing.
Jingyuetan offers a wealth of activities. You can cycle around the lake, take a cable car for an aerial view, or paddle a bamboo raft through the wetland reeds to experience its unique ecological beauty. Furthermore, cultural attractions such as the Jingyue Goddess Statue, the Bisong Jingyue Pagoda, and the Taiping Bell Tower add a touch of cultural charm to the scenic area.
In short, Jingyuetan is impeccable in both its natural scenery and the recreational experience, making it a truly worthwhile experience!
The park is quite large. We visited on a Wednesday. To avoid the long lines at the sightseeing bus departure point, we bought a 70-yuan combined boat and sightseeing bus ticket. This provided a direct transfer to the pier without a long wait. The boat departed at 10:30 a.m. and completed a 50-minute circuit, stopping at three piers. We didn't disembark, but returned from the starting point to the end point. We walked across the dam, took the sightseeing bus, and rented a tandem power-assisted bicycle for 90 yuan per hour. I had planned to rent an electric bike for 100 yuan per hour, but I applied for my electronic driver's license too late, so I had to give up. Bicycles are expensive, and this price is far better than renting an electric bike. There were plenty of safety officers in the park, who reminded us to ride slowly on downhill slopes and around corners, which was very considerate. Lunch was disappointing. The teppanyaki beef rice was just a layer of rice in a plastic container, topped with a few corn kernels, shredded seaweed, and a few slices of beef. It wasn't even stir-fried. How could it be called teppanyaki rice? And it cost 39 yuan per portion.

The night show is more interesting. Tickets are checked in at 16:30 and there will be NPC interactions at the entrance. The Shanhaijing Wonderful Night Show starts at 19:30, and there will be singing and interactive activities at the front to warm up the audience. If you want a good seat, enter early to get a seat. Remember to bring a raincoat because there will be a rain spray session. Umbrellas are sold on site for 35, which is too expensive.
Before going, I read the reviews and didn't buy daytime tickets, only the night show. I found the venue quite small and the equipment quite old. The evening show was quite good, and the fireworks were beautiful. But why are there discounts for children and college students, but not for middle and high school students? These children get discounts elsewhere, so why are children and adults priced the same here?

I came to Changchun specifically to watch Snow Monkey and Tang Monk. I didn't expect there would be so many people at the Monday night show. Snow Monkey is the most popular. The performance is great, each performance is well connected, and the actors are very dedicated. It is worth coming.
It is worth a visit. The environment is very good and there are rich plants and animals. It is better than the Siberian Tiger Park. It is a good place to feed animals and take children and the elderly. You can also rent electric cars to play without getting tired.

It rained this morning, and the air is very fresh now. The cable car opened at 9:00. There was still a little rain, but it dried up after a while. The speed was slow, but not scary. The other attractions were also not expensive, and the staff were very friendly. I plan to camp here next week.
The weather was very cool when I came here yesterday afternoon. After playing, I went to the roof to take pictures. The foggy feeling was very impressive. The scenery was particularly beautiful. The two customer service ladies on the top of the mountain were also very enthusiastic. ❤️ The average price was 78 per person, no hidden charges. Recommended

My trip to Changchun was truly memorable for the Siberian Tiger Park, and I absolutely have to praise it!
- The park's environment is incredibly comfortable: Upon entering, it's like stepping into a natural oxygen bar, shaded by lush trees and filled with fresh air. The park is well-planned, with wide, flat paths and clear signage. There's no need to worry about getting lost, and walking around is truly relaxing.
- A rich variety of animals: Although it's called the Siberian Tiger Park, the animal species there extend far beyond tigers; it's truly an animal kingdom! The majestic Siberian tigers, stalking the forests, exude a commanding presence; the adorable giant pandas Chu Xin and Mu Yun, grazing on bamboo with such adorable grace, melt my heart; and the lively ring-tailed lemurs, hopping from branch to branch, are truly captivating. I counted at least 60 rare and endangered species, a truly eye-opening experience.
- The ultimate experience: The sightseeing bus ride to see the beasts up close is truly incredible! As the car slowly pulled into the wild animal area, Siberian tigers and African lions were right next to the car. The close yet safe encounters were truly thrilling. In the bird park, you could interact with a variety of birds, which flitted around you, making you feel like you were transported to a fairytale. The animal shows were also fantastic. The equestrian riders were incredibly skilled, and the animals were incredibly cooperative, earning rounds of applause.
- Attentive and thoughtful service: The staff were incredibly friendly, patiently answering questions and offering helpful recommendations. The park's well-planned rest areas and dining options provided convenient rest and refueling opportunities. It was a truly user-friendly experience.
This trip to the Siberian Tiger Park was truly fantastic. Whether you're traveling with children or on your own, you'll have a blast. I highly recommend it to everyone!
I've been to the Siberian Tiger Park so many times. Every time I come to Changchun, I always take time to visit. I liked the acrobatic show the most. Now the show has changed, which is a bit disappointing. But overall, it's still very attentive.

A very meaningful tram trip! The guide was serious, enthusiastic, patient and thoughtful, and the tram museum and workshop were also very rewarding! Recommended for friends who like cultural travel to experience it!
Take the No. 54 Cultural and Tourism Tram to appreciate the cityscape of Changchun. It is unique and entertaining. The handsome guys on the bus are both service staff and guitar (guitar) singing experts. You can sing and laugh all the way. It’s a different feeling, happy and joyful!

The teacher's explanation was very detailed and vivid, and he turned each exhibition into a historical story. The children listened very carefully, especially the part about the Northeast Allied Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall. I was moved to tears several times. It was a great museum explanation experience.
I really visited it carefully from top to bottom, but I personally feel that there are relatively few contents to visit for a provincial museum. There is no intuitive and attractive content, and the precious collections or historical details are single. However, some contents, such as the Khitan octagonal bronze mirror, the display of the history of the revolutionary struggle of the people of Jilin, and the display of the history of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, are still very good! You can understand culture and history! It's just my personal opinion!

The road there was a bit difficult, but maybe it's better now. If you haven't been, give it a try. The deer are adorable. You can stock up on carrots, cucumbers, and other treats. There's also a flock of cute little pigeons.
This is a great tourist attraction. The mountain features a cave, a large swing, and a glass bridge, while Luming Valley and a game plaza are located at the foot of the mountain. Almost everything is included in the package, making it a great value. The scenery is stunning, and the wooden plank path is easy to walk. The sika deer in Luming Valley are very welcoming, perfectly complementing the large lawn and the summer mountain scenery. Shenlu Peak was quite cool in late July. There are also hotels within the scenic area. I'd definitely stay there next time I have the chance, and I'd definitely stay a few days longer.

Wow, the aquarium is awesome! As soon as you enter it, it's like you've entered a blue dream world. The fish are swimming around, and the jellyfish are like dancing fairies. When the dolphins are performing, they seem to be very smart. And the big shark is a little scary, but it's also very cool. The ticket price is great, I think one visit is not enough, hehe.
Zhongtai Ocean World is located in Chaoyang District, Changchun City, is a large-scale ocean theme mall integrating science education, sightseeing, leisure and entertainment, shopping and dining. The park has 17 themed exhibition areas, including the undersea garden, seal paradise, shark harbor, undersea tunnel and Jurassic caves. The undersea tunnel is one of the classic scenes here, where visitors can see sea creatures such as devil fish, turtles and sharks up close. In addition, there is a jellyfish palace in the pavilion, showing dozens of jellyfish, showing dreamy visual effects under colorful lights. The park also offers sea lion performances and mermaid performances, adding interaction and fun. Overall, Zhongtai Ocean World is a good place for family trips and friends gatherings.

I came to Nanhu Park in Changchun, which is really a place full of vitality and vigor.
As soon as I entered the park, a lush scene came into view. Tall trees were like open green umbrellas, shielding people from the sun. Walking along the winding path, I saw the lake rippling in the breeze, sparkling, as if countless diamonds were flashing. On the lake, several small boats slowly passed by, leaving long water marks, adding a bit of agility to the quiet lake.
On the grass by the lake, wild flowers bloomed in red, yellow, purple, and colorful, as if laying a gorgeous carpet on the earth. Butterflies danced among the flowers, and bees were busy collecting honey among the flowers. Their laughter seemed to tell the beauty of nature.
Continue walking along the lake and come to the landmark building of Nanhu Park-Nanhu Bridge. Standing on the bridge, the beautiful scenery of the entire Nanhu Lake can be seen. The lake water is clear and the fish swim freely in the water. In the distance, a group of egrets dance on the lake, sometimes flying low over the water, and sometimes resting on the shore, adding a bit of agility to this peaceful picture.
Nanhu Park is not only beautiful, but also full of humanistic atmosphere. There are many sculptures and historical relics in the park, which quietly tell the story of the city of Changchun. Here, I feel the tranquility and beauty of nature, and also experience the historical heritage of this city.
Nanhu Park is really a good place to relax, I will definitely come again next time!
Whether you’re seeking a place for active recreation or peaceful contemplation, Nanhu Park provides a versatile environment that caters to all. Its blend of natural beauty and cultural vibrancy makes it a must-visit destination in Changchun.Highly recommended place in Changchun…
