Starting station: Changchun

The first encounter on Guilin Street
When I arrived at Changchun Longjia Airport, it was close to 7 p.m. The guy from the car rental company took the two of us to the car rental company near the airport. After the rough formalities are completed, drive straight to the hotel near Guilin Street.
▲Changchun Longjia International Airport
Longjia Airport to Changchun City to open a section of the highway, to the toll station, the sky is already dark. We didn't care about looking around, and followed the navigation straight to the vicinity of Guilin Street. Park the car, don't stop, and walk with my son to Guilin Street, which is brightly lit in the twilight.
The summer night in the Northeast is different from that in the south of the Yangtze River, and you can't feel the heat at night, and you can still feel a little cool on your arms, which is indeed a good place to escape the heat. It's already half past eight o'clock in the evening, and Guilin Street is still bustling, with the streets rubbing shoulders and neon signs of various snacks decorating the night sky with extra brightness.
The two of us just ate a few snacks such as glutinous rice chicken thighs, grilled cold noodles, baked bean skin, and scones. The food on the street can only be appreciated with the eyes, and the belly can no longer bear it.
Food tips: Two people see more, eat less, personally feel that the grilled cold noodles are very aftertaste, mainly to see the process of roasting is also a kind of enjoyment, the moment the sauce is sprinkled, I want to send it to the mouth immediately.

南湖周边,清晨的CITYWALK
After a day's flight journey, middle school students were still quite tired, and they were still sleeping under the bed in the morning. I had already come out on my own for a CITY WALK that was exclusive to photo enthusiasts.
In the early morning, there are already many uncles and aunts in Nanhu Park who come out for morning exercises. I've always felt that a lake would add a lot of color to a city. Baidu said that this lake was built during the puppet Manchurian period, and the water of a lake in Changchun also has a story. The four pavilions of wind and rain are also a famous small scene in South Lake. Although the sky is gloomy, the pavilions and pavilions reflect the lotus leaves, which is also quite interesting.
I was attracted by the lotus flowers in the lake and became a flower lover. I think that in more than ten years, the uncle in retirement and the park may be the one who takes the telephoto now.
Walk through the lotus pond and into the depths of the dense forest. I have to say that the greenery around Nanhu Lake is so good, who would have thought that a big city could have such a large forest-like park.
Second stop: Ji'an
1
After the Citywalk, I returned to the hotel to wake up my son, and after a simple breakfast, I immediately set off for the first stop of the trip: Ji'an, a small town by the Yalu River. From Changchun to Ji'an, it takes 4 hours to drive. Listening to the radio music, all the way to the south, the corn all over the mountains moved with the wind, which was refreshing to watch.
Departing in the morning, it was close to 12 noon when I arrived at the Ji'an toll station, which happened to be the time for dinner. Navigation is located directly on Brazier Street. The small brazier street was already full of cars, so we had to park far away near the neighborhood.
Take a tourist map of Ji'an at the entrance of the street to learn about the most famous tourist attractions in the local area.
I found a brazier shop casually, lit a 120 yuan brazier, and the two of them threw off their arms and feasted. The taste is really good, but it is really hot to eat a brazier in the summer, and even if the store is intimately holding a large industrial fan, the two of us are still sweating profusely. On a hot day, eating braziers around the charcoal stove is only for those of us who come from afar to experience life in such an untimely way.
Food Tips: Rice sausage, soft and glutinous taste made me fall directly. The brazier is the same as the hot pot, the longer it is cooked, the more flavorful it tastes and the better it feels, and it is best to mix it with a bowl of rice at the end, which is definitely a perfect choice.
Fill your belly and start your cultural journey. We bought a package ticket at the gate of Marudu Mountain Castle, and the staff at the ticket office also intimately told us that the 3 attractions of the package are far away, not self-driving, and basically cannot be completed. Luckily, I've done my homework a long time ago, so that's no problem for road trippers.
Immediately drive to the second attraction of the package - the Tomb of the King of Longevity. The mountain castle of Marudu and the tomb of the king of Changshou are basically divided into the east and west ends of the small city of Ji'an. When we arrived, the clouds began to disperse, revealing a blue sky that had not been seen for a long time.
Looking at this pyramid in the East, think that the ancients were indeed persistent enough to spare no effort for the aftermath. It took a lot of effort to grind such a large stone so smoothly without the help of machinery.
Out of the pyramid, go around the field for a week and then go to the Good King Monument. The advantage of visiting the town during the summer vacation is that even though it is a World Heritage Site, there is not much crowding. The last attraction of the package is still only a group of tourists.

All choose C, just for that big guitar
When the Monument of the Good King came out, it was already more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and the blue of the sky became more and more intense. The historical and cultural attractions have all been checked in, and I took my son straight to the Yalu River. Even the small town of Ji'an is very lively, and then on the other side, the corn on the hillside is slowly ripening, and it is a pastoral and tranquil style. Separated by a river, there are two worlds entirely.
▲ The glass platform on the square, reflection lovers must not let go of this scene
Dapeng's movie "Sewing Machine Band", big guitar and "All Choose C" made the small town in the Northeast a household name in the country. My post-00s son doesn't know the story of the big guitar at all, and he knows Ji'an because of another recent Dapeng movie - "Keep You Safe". Dapeng is simply the image spokesperson of Ji'an.
In front of the big guitar, a rock heart burns, and the rock metal salute is used to express the admiration for rock and roll!!
The hotel is near the square. I feel that it is too early for dinner, so it is better to go to the hotel to take a shower and rest. The hotel could see the Yalu River, so I immediately took out a telephoto lens and took a few photos.
The barbecue stalls by the river have been set up, and the "sewing machine" element at the intersection is still the best sign to attract customers. We were still worried about the rain, so we went to a restaurant that claims to make the best pot meat for dinner.
Food Tips: In the past, the pot meat I ate in the Northeast was either very sweet or fried very old, so I always had a bad impression. The pot wrapped meat in the Yinglan Korean restaurant is different, crispy and tender, which is very recommended. Several signature dishes recommended by the staff are also delicious, such as fried rice cakes with chicken feet.

Morning Market, a breakfast tour of a small northeastern town
The morning market is quite lively, and I haven't seen this kind of stall-style morning market for a long time, and I feel like I only had a scene when I was a child. The morning market is visited by both tourists and locals. Although there are more tourists than locals, there are still some local characteristics, and it may completely degenerate into a tourist-style check-in attraction in a few years.
Food Tip: Cake making is quite recommended. It also looks very good, I bought a whole box and later ate it as a snack on the road. It is soft and glutinous, and there is still some difference between it and the rice cakes in the south, and it feels very delicious.

Tai Chi Bay, I just met you
After breakfast, seeing that the sky was good, I decided to rush to Tai Chi Bay. So I drove all the way west. Breaking through the jungle passage to the navigation destination, we unexpectedly found that there was really more than one team, and there were already three or four cars in the small parking lot.
Looking out from the observation deck, the dense clouds may make the scenery slightly discounted, and the Yalu River is also a huge S-shape between the mountain passes, which also makes my eyes shine and feel that the trip is worthwhile. In the hollow valley and secluded forest, you can also hear the voices of people playing on the other side, in this place that seems to be a paradise, happiness is as simple as that.
Food tip: At noon, I ate at the second sister-in-law's restaurant. The stewed river fish in the iron pot, the cakes pasted on the side of the pot, look at it very appetizing. However, the pot was so big that I only took a picture of the food. The two of them ordered a portion of miscellaneous fish, which was very delicious. We came from a place in the south that specializes in eating fish, and I feel that the fish by the Yalu River are also doing well, which is very recommendable.
From Ji'an to Songjianghe Town, it takes more than 3 hours by car. The weather in the Northeast is also very changeable, just in Ji'an or pouring rain, this will be cloudless and blue sky on the highway again, even the mountains near the service area also have a mountain interest.
When I entered Songjiang River Town, it was almost dusk. The clouds change for a day, reaching the moment of glory at the end. The sunset against the twilight sky became more and more colorful, and seeing such a beautiful sunset made the mood better.
The night in Songjianghe Town feels a little cold. There was a night market in the evening, and I ordered a barbecue with my son, and then a cold noodle.
Food Tip: The barbecue is very good, and if you have the money, you can get a few extra servings of beef. Su Ziye is a little uncomfortable, after all, it has a medicinal taste, and it is still acceptable to the traditional lettuce. The cold noodles are too hard and cold, I don't know if this is the taste.
Third stop: Changbai Mountain
1
Tianchi, the depths of the clouds are white
Arriving at the gate of the South Slope Scenic Area, dark clouds were thick, and even sparse rain fell. Intimate tips from the loudspeaker at the entrance of the scenic spot: The fog lock pool on the mountain, please enter the park cautiously, and contact the visitor center if you need a refund. The tourists at the scene are estimated to be all the same idea, they have come from far away, and they have to go up the mountain anyway.
The shuttle bus will also stop at two spots on the way down the mountain. The first one is the Yuehua Twin Waterfalls. When I arrived at the mouth of the waterfall, I finally felt the warmth of summer, and my hands and feet warmed up.
The second stop is the Yalu River Grand Canyon. The shuttle bus puts visitors in a relatively safe area with a panoramic view of the canyon. Nature's miraculous carving techniques create clusters of strange rocks on the stone walls, and the sunlight through the clouds casts a volume of light on the surface of the canyon, which is beautiful.
Back at the door, the blue sky at the foot of the mountain has been fully revealed, and the mountain below the mountain is completely two worlds. Looking at the appearance of this blue sky and white clouds, who would have thought that at the top of the mountain there would be a different world shrouded in clouds and mist.
Since Tianchi didn't spend much time, I drove all the way to the residence in Erdao Baihe Town, and it was still early before the meal time, so I rested at the accommodation for a while. When the night first appeared, I found an iron pot to stew. The chicken stew in the iron pot is whole, and the tiredness of the day is swept away.
Food Tip: The iron pot stew is very tasty, and I prefer baked cakes and vermicelli to meat. Son that's all loved!

Two white rivers, drizzling stroll beauty pine
Wake up in the morning, and today starts with the rain. Since I arrived in Erdao Baihe Town, I couldn't go to any scenic spots, so I went to the Beauty Pine Sculpture Park after breakfast. The sky is raining, and walking on the sky covered bridge with an umbrella is quite emotional. The rain in the northeast is not like in Gangnam, and it will rain for a day after it starts. It didn't take long for the rain to stop. People wearing brightly colored ponchos adorn the covered bridge, which is also very interesting.
Fourth stop: Yanji
1
Maoer Mountain, sweating profusely to climb the mountain
Merry Pine Park came out, navigated Yanji directly, and drove all the way to Yanji. Entering the urban area of Yanji, the landscape of "Yanji, the hometown of football" comes into view.
The door of Hancun fried chicken is very small, and although it is on the side of the road, it is not easy to find. There are also queues in small stores, Is Yanji's food business so good? Don't make any other choices, follow the customer in front of you, also buy a set menu, and return immediately. When I returned to the restaurant, my son ordered bibimbap, fried chicken with bibimbap, and a few cheese balls, which was full of energy.
Food Tip: Cheese-flavored and soy sauce-flavored fried chicken are both distinctive. Cheese balls are also a good choice. Compared to the previous meal, the bibimbap seems to be more professional. Both of these are options that don't step on the pit.
Maoershan is close to the south of Yanji and is a good place for a walk after dinner. The mountain is not too high, and it takes about half an hour to reach the top. The weather is still cloudy, and this weather is more suitable for climbing mountains in summer, otherwise you will get sunburned.
There is also a three-story observatory at the top of the mountain, although it is cloudy, the visibility is not low, and the whole view of Yanji City can be seen at a glance. When I went up the mountain, I was sweating profusely, and the cool mountain breeze blew, and I felt a lot better.

Folk Garden, the first experience of Wuyang Wuyang
Walking into the Folk Garden, you will be greeted by all kinds of beauties dressed in Korean costumes, models and various photography teams, turning the entire Folk Garden into a large-scale show for photo.
3
The power of the Internet celebrity wall, the dense appearance of billboards
In the evening, drive out and continue to check in the Internet celebrity attractions. Yanji is now most famous for the Internet celebrity building opposite Yanbian University. It's unrealistic to park directly near the red wall, so you have to park a few blocks away and walk there.
In the end, it is a mature Internet celebrity attraction, and all kinds of milk tea and coffee with the word "Yanji" are sold next to the photo wall. Popular check-in background boards and street signs are also available every few steps, focusing on an Internet celebrity feeling. Of course, we can't avoid vulgarity, take the exclusive milk tea cup, and go to the core scenic spot - the bus separation belt in the middle of the road.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the neon lights blessed by the Internet celebrity building at night are more and more brilliant, don't you say, it's really quite shining. At night, there is a lot of people, and the crowd is constantly walking between the streets while looking at the building.

Floating market, a feast for breakfast
Early in the morning, I walked around the Burhatong River near Yanji by myself. Many people are fishing, and the surrounding residents are also in the morning market on the roadside, or shopping, or exercising, the years are quiet, full of comfortable fireworks.
Food tip: The steamed dumplings with potato flour are very tough to bite, and the father and son, who are afraid of stepping on the pit, have chosen the safe filling, which is cabbage pork. Sure enough, there were no surprises. Colored fritters, that is, appearance, in fact, are no different from ordinary fritters, and there is no recommendation index.
5
Donglai Temple, a small temple in the mountains
The gate of Donglai Temple is leaning on the side of the road of "Ma Xiao Line". There wasn't much parking nearby, so we pulled over and walked through the gate. The buildings in the temple are relatively new, and it is estimated that it has not been renovated for a long time. The red walls and yellow tiles, with the nearby mountains, are bright in color and have a bit of a solemn atmosphere.
This is the end of the first half of the tour of the eight cities
