It is very worthwhile to go. Songhua Lake Resort is further improving its life, just to bring better experience to tourists. It is very good and worth a visit. I will take my family to travel to Songhua Lake for vacation if I have the chance.

Reported on September 20th, successfully caught the sunrise 🌅

Tips:

Students or office workers who don&#39;t drive are advised to stay directly in the resort area. There are many B&amp;Bs and hotels at reasonable prices.

[Departure Time]

We woke up at 3:00 AM and departed promptly at 3:30 AM. Our accommodation was a 10-minute walk from the cable car. There was basically no line when we arrived at 3:40 AM.

[Round Trip]

A group of people can usually take a single cable car. You can purchase a round-trip ticket for 78 RMB using the cable car app. Scan the QR code before boarding and you&#39;ll be given a small receipt for your descent. Don&#39;t lose it.

Don&#39;t get off at the first stop; continue down to the second and final stop. We got off just before 4:00 AM. There&#39;s a restaurant and Manner Caf&eacute; below the cable car. If you arrive early, you can wait inside and grab a bite to eat. There&#39;s braised pork rice, noodles, and pancakes. We had braised pork rice for 38 yuan a portion, and it tasted okay 😋

I came to the long-awaited Vanke Songhua Lake. Here, the mountains and waters are beautiful and the scenery is picturesque, like a paradise hidden among the mountains.

As soon as I stepped into the scenic area, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me. Under the blue sky, Songhua Lake is like a huge sapphire inlaid between the mountains, and the lake water is clear and sparkling. The breeze blows, and ripples appear on the lake, as if countless elves are jumping on the lake. The green mountains in the distance are rolling and reflected in the lake. The mountains and water complement each other, forming a beautiful landscape painting.

Strolling along the path by the lake, there is soft grass under your feet and lush trees on both sides. The air is filled with a faint scent of pine and soil, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. From time to time, a few birds fly over your head, chirping and singing, adding a bit of vitality to this quiet lakeside.

What I remember most is the panoramic view of Songhua Lake from the cable car. The cable car rises slowly, the view gradually widens, and the whole picture of Songhua Lake is in full view. The lake sparkles with dazzling light under the sunshine, like a flowing galaxy. The mountains surround the lake, as if it is a barrier carefully carved by nature, guarding this peaceful world. Looking down from a high place, the beauty of Songhua Lake is even more shocking, and people can&#39;t help but sigh at the uncanny workmanship of nature.

The time spent at Vanke Songhua Lake is leisurely and pleasant. There are not only charming natural scenery here, but also rich outdoor activities. Whether strolling by the lake or taking a cable car, you can feel the charm of nature. Songhua Lake, this beautiful place, makes me linger and looks forward to the next reunion.

There are many recreational projects in Songhua Lake Resort, you can take your children to play

The most recommended is to watch the sunrise and sea of ​​clouds. It will be 20 yuan cheaper to take the cable car to watch the sunrise. It is said that it is only open when there are many people on holidays. On weekdays, you may only be able to climb up, which takes about an hour and a half

There are many homestays and hotels in the resort, all of which are available

For restaurants, I only recommend Qingshan Restaurant, all others are bad

I decided to go out for a walk on the spur of the moment. I wanted to go here only after I got on the highway. I didn&#39;t expect that I would be so dazzled when I arrived at the scenic spot. It really felt like I was on vacation abroad. I took the cable car to the top of the mountain. Although the sea of ​​flowers along the way was not very spectacular, it made me feel happy. I could overlook Jilin City and Songhua Lake from the top. There were also various amusement projects, suspension bridges, rainbow slides, CS, etc. The children liked it very much. The scenery must be more beautiful in winter. I am looking forward to coming here next winter.

I took my kids on a challenging hike. It took an hour and a half to go up and an hour to go down. The scenery was great, and the sense of accomplishment at the top was very satisfying. It's a great hike for kids. The park also has many activities, and I took my kids on a jungle adventure.

Beautiful Zhuque Mountain, with its vibrant forests ablaze with autumn colors, is a picturesque sight! The leaves are already red, with a predominant yellow-orange hue &ndash; a truly stunning sight! Climbing to the summit offers a breathtaking view of the Songhua River and the surrounding mountains, leaving you feeling refreshed! The scenery is breathtaking, and the climb to the summit is quite demanding. The path to the summit is steep, requiring a long, demanding climb, but the scenery is breathtaking. There&#39;s no way back up the mountain, and there are no shops to restock, so be sure to bring food and water. The steps down are difficult and can be very painful, but that&#39;s my only complaint.

- Beautiful natural landscape: belonging to the remnant vein of Changbai Mountain, high forest coverage, tree shade, fresh air, high negative oxygen ion content, is a natural forest oxygen bar. The mountain is steep, strange stone, there are many lifelike stones, such as Shenzhu stone, Yutu stone, etc., as if the earth sculpture exhibition.

The first of the four famous mountains in Jilin City, the natural stone viewing area is dominated by Xunmeng Peak and Shenzhu Stone, and the cultural viewing area is dominated by the large temple Hand Bodhi Temple and the Ancient Fossil Museum. There are two different climbing routes in the mountaineering square. The left side has many natural landscapes, but it tests endurance. Fortunately, 872 meters is not too high; the right side is flat and there are no attractions. You can also go to Xiaomanyao far away from Zhuque Mountain, but you need to take a sightseeing bus. The light show at night is too beautiful, and there are performances, which is good.

1. &quot;Zhuque Mountain National Forest Park&quot; is the first of the four famous mountains in Jilin City. It is located 12 kilometers southeast of the city. The main peak &quot;Xunmeng Peak&quot; is also known as &quot;Jiandao Peak&quot; and &quot;Zhuzuilazi&quot;. It is 871 meters above sea level. It is adjacent to Songhua Lake in the south and Songhua River in the west. The forest coverage rate is 97%. It is a good place for mountaineering, fitness, and sightseeing. The ticket price is 30 yuan. There are three legends about the origin of the name of Zhuque Mountain. One is that Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty was in the 19th year of Qianlong (1754) when he was on a hunting tour in the east. This mountain was surrounded by clouds and mist, so he praised it as Zhuque; the second is that the Republic of China version of &quot;Yongji County Chronicles&quot; records that the two peaks on the top of the mountain were called &quot;Mozhu Stone&quot; and &quot;Chouying Stone&quot; in ancient times. Pig and Zhu are homophones, and eagle and sparrow are the same, so they are named; the third is that it is said that Guanyin Bodhisattva once sent a Zhuque to live in this mountain to bless the mountain people.

During the Republic of China period, Wang Mingle, the 20th Taoist priest of the Quanzhen Longmen Sect, saw the vision of five dragons holding the saint here, so he changed the name to its current name.
