2025 Daxing'anling Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

The most beautiful scenery in the Greater Khingan Mountains in autumn is all on the road! Photos 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 are all on the way to Qiqian. Photos 5 and 7 are from a small path randomly taken on the way from Genhe to Shiwei. Everything is completely free! I also visited paid spots but didn’t capture any particularly beautiful scenes. Compared to last time I came to the Greater Khingan Mountains, it’s quite a bit less impressive—maybe because of the weather. I planned five days, and the weather was pretty average for three of them. Hopefully today will be a bright sunny day.

A three-day, two-night trip to the Greater Khingan Range let me see the stunning scenery described in textbooks! When the morning mist cleared, golden sunlight filtered through the birch forest, and the distant lake shimmered with a blue glow. That moment truly healed me～ 🌲 Trip Highlights: - Stroll through the autumn birch forest, with golden fallen leaves covering the path - Encounter the "sea" of the Greater Khingan Range, where the lake reflects the blue sky and white clouds - Enjoy the vast grassland wetlands and spot migrating birds 📍 Recommended Check-in Spots: 1. Birch Forest Scenic Area: Golden birch trunks sparkle under the sunlight, perfect for a desktop wallpaper shot (Opening hours: 8:00-17:00) 2. Wetland Park: Walk along the wooden boardwalk and see various water birds resting (Address: Jiagedaqi District, Greater Khingan Range) 3. "Sea" Viewing Platform: Locals call it the "Sea of Little Khingan," with a lake surface as wide and mirror-like (Best visited at dawn or dusk for the most beautiful light) 🌡️ Travel Tips: - October has large temperature differences between morning and evening, remember to bring a windproof jacket and warm clothes - Waterproof boots are recommended as wetlands and lakesides can be damp - Bring a thermos and snacks, as there are few dining options inside the scenic area 🏨 Accommodation Recommendations: Chain hotels in Jiagedaqi city are convenient, or you can choose a unique guesthouse to experience forest life. We stayed at the Xing'anling Forest Hotel, which offers good value, clean rooms, and sufficient heating.

Jagdaqi, the capital of the Greater Khingan Mountains region in Heilongjiang, means "the place with Mongolian pines" in the Oroqen language. I had heard of Jagdaqi long ago and always wondered what this city would be like. Now, after so many years, I’ve finally arrived. I took the early morning train (K4119) from Qiqihar to Jagdaqi, with a stunning sunrise on one side and dense forests on the other—a delightful surprise. In Jagdaqi, I had the best spicy hotpot of my trip—everything cost just 14 yuan. Unlike the sweet, old-style Northeastern version, I ordered it extra spicy and numbing, which perfectly suited my Sichuan taste buds. During the day, I casually strolled around and bought super-fresh blueberries for just 10 yuan per pound. At night, outside Hangzhou Bay Plaza, there were several barbecue stalls. I randomly picked one called Ma’s Original BBQ (I think that’s the name). Some skewers were sweet and spicy, while others were savory and spicy—all delicious. Beishan Forest Park is great for a walk—it’s quite large. The Railway Soldier Monument is worth a visit, offering a panoramic view of Jagdaqi. There’s also a pavilion near the Hongqi Community Party Service Center. Jagdaqi’s urban area is very small, so staying near Jagdaqi Station is convenient, and it’s close to the bus station too. Apparently, ride-hailing apps don’t work here, but you can call a taxi—though I haven’t tried that yet, haha. From a tourist perspective, Jagdaqi itself doesn’t have much to offer, but I found it quite pleasant—a laid-back city where you can hike in Beishan Forest Park or take a bus to explore nearby places. It’s a great transit stop, with convenient bus and train connections to other destinations. If you plan to take a bus from Jagdaqi, check the WeChat mini-program "Chuxing 365" for bus tickets. The schedule posted at the bus station doesn’t always match the actual departure times.

✅Must-Experience: The Greater Khingan Mountains – A Summer-Exclusive Fairyland of Green While cities sizzle in the summer heat, the Greater Khingan Mountains unfold a 22°C cool paradise🍀. Meandering rivers are the earth's blue ribbons, flowing through meadows, tinkling over stony shoals, and turning the forest's tranquility into shimmering silver ripples. ☀ Cattle and horses roam leisurely, drinking from hidden springs or grazing on lush grass, while the breeze slows down, carrying the scent of pine to give your skin a natural spa treat🥰. Here, time is meant to be savored—whether waiting for a night lit by fireflies and starlight or anticipating the aurora tearing through the indigo sky. The summer of the Greater Khingan Mountains holds every imagination of "freedom and coolness"🙈.

The Greater Khingan Mountains stretch across the vast lands of Northeast China, forming the country's northernmost and largest primitive forest region. Renowned for its boundless sea of trees, unique cold-temperate scenery, and abundant ecological resources, this area is a natural wonder. Here, the forest reigns supreme. Across millions of hectares of woodland, larch, Mongolian pine, and white birch trees form continuous green oceans. In spring and summer, vibrant foliage filters sunlight into dappled patterns on the forest floor. Autumn transforms the landscape into a colorful tapestry—golden larches, fiery-red oak trees, and snow-white birches weave together like brocade across the land. In winter, the forest is blanketed in pristine snow, so silent you can hear only the wind whispering through frosted branches. This expansive woodland serves as a paradise for wildlife. Black bears, sika deer, and roe deer roam freely among the trees, while hazel grouses and capercaillies perch on branches. Rare cold-resistant species like sables and snow hares thrive here, forming a complete and vibrant ecological chain. Beyond the forests, the Greater Khingan's rivers and wetlands hold unique charm. Crystal-clear streams meander through the woods, eventually merging into the Nen River and Heilongjiang River—perfect for summer retreats, while winter transforms them into glittering ice sculptures. In the wetlands, swaying reeds and playful waterfowl create nature's vital "ecosystem regulators." This region is also home to ethnic minorities like the Oroqen and Ewenki people, whose hunting culture and reindeer-herding traditions blend seamlessly with the snowy forests, adding rich cultural depth to the land. Whether you're trekking through dense woods to feel nature's primal energy or experiencing the majestic extremes of the snowy wilderness, the Greater Khingan Mountains will awe you with their untamed power—revealing the grandeur and purity of China's northern frontier.

Greater Khingan Mountains｜Autumn After a Year, Truly Breathtaking (Part 2) Continue to experience the autumn wonders of the Greater Khingan Mountains! For the first three days' itinerary, check out the previous post. **Day 4:** Beiji Village (arrived on the afternoon of Day 3) → Wusuli Shoal → First Bend of the Heilongjiang River → Beihong Village → Mohe 🏷️ Compared to winter, autumn in Beiji Village offers fewer activities, but strolling around the village with friends, visiting the northernmost post office, and taking a boat ride along the Heilongjiang River to see the Russian border are quite relaxing. Plus, the sunset that day was stunning!! At the First Bend of the Heilongjiang River, make sure to climb the 999-step staircase—the panoramic view from the top is awe-inspiring. We got lucky that day when a local villager drove us to the other side of the bend, where we were the only ones there. Chasing the sunset was an incredible experience (see photos p7-p8). **Day 5:** Mohe → Yikesama → Crossing the No-Man’s Land → Qiqian 🏷️ Most of today’s journey is on the road, passing by iconic national border gates for photo ops. The highlight? The *Right Bank of the Argun River*—a place 99% of travelers miss. Only a few households live here, and accommodations are scarce, so book ahead!!! Signal is poor, and there’s no Wi-Fi, but it’s the perfect chance to unplug and immerse yourself in nature. In the evening, hike up the mountain to chase the sunset, stargaze in the village at night, and wake up early for the morning mist. **Day 6:** Qiqian → Moerdaoga Forest → Taiping Village → Eagle’s Beak → Enhe 🏷️ The train winds through the autumn forest, but there’s only one notable stop for photos. The scenery is similar to what you’ve seen along the way, so it’s up to personal preference. Originally, we planned to stay in Shiwei but found it too commercialized and lacking charm, so we chose Enhe instead. It’s a tiny village—10 RMB for a horse-drawn carriage ride will take you around the whole place in no time. However, unwinding at a Hobbit-themed pub in the evening is quite cozy. **Tips:** Aside from the small villages, much of the scenery and time on these days are spent on the road. Many "attractions" pale in comparison to the views along the journey.

What comes to mind when you think of Daxing'anling? Endless mountain ranges, towering forests, snow-covered woods, and elusive rare animals like woodland spirits. Only when you're truly here do you realize— It’s the freedom of blueberries and cranberries, The unstoppable excitement of mushroom picking, The wild joy of weaving through the trees, The awe of watching mountains transform at sunrise and sunset, And the simple happiness of gathering abundant plants in the town. The Huma River winds its way through, The reserve requires permits to enter, The richness of the forest’s bounty is beyond imagination—everything defies expectations.

Please bring appropriate warm and windproof clothing to cope with the changing weather conditions. Spring (April) is one of the peak tourist seasons in Hulunbuir, but the weather is still changeable, so it is recommended to bring multiple layers of clothing to cope with different temperatures. ### Photography equipment It is recommended to bring a telephoto lens or a drone to capture the magnificent views of the grasslands.

Please be prepared for this and don't have too high expectations. However, with the development of tourism, accommodation conditions near many scenic spots have improved, but it is still recommended to be mentally prepared. ### Special Tips The grassland area is vast and sparsely populated, and the distances between scenic spots are far. It is recommended to plan your itinerary in advance and ensure that your vehicle is in good condition. In addition, since the signal may be unstable in grassland areas, it is recommended to download maps and related navigation software in advance for use during the trip. ## Food Recommendations In Hulunbuir, you can taste three different types of cuisine: Chinese, Russian, and Mongolian, each with its own unique flavor: 1. Manzhouli: Lubli offers authentic Russian cuisine. It is recommended to try Russian-style Western food and desserts. 2. Ergun: Boiled lamb chops are a favorite delicacy of the locals. The meat is tender and delicious. 3. Mordaoga: Iron pot stew is a local specialty. Various ingredients are slowly stewed in a large iron pot, with a unique taste. 4. Heishantou: Grilled steak is a must-try delicacy. It uses local high-quality beef, grilled to perfection, and the meat is tender and delicious. In addition to these special foods, you can also try traditional Mongolian food, such as hand-held meat, dairy products, etc., and experience the food culture of the grassland people. ## Culture and History of Hulunbuir Hulunbuir not only has magnificent natural scenery, but also rich cultural and historical resources. By 2025, Hulunbuir City has carefully planned more than 60 cultural and tourism activities in six categories, including four-season theme tours, singing tours of Inner Mongolia, folk kaleidoscope, integration of culture, tourism and sports, exotic tours, and a taste of northern Xinjiang. These activities will give you an in-depth understanding of Hulunbuir's culture and history. ### Fusion Road Cultural Tourism The "Road of Integration" is one of the key tasks of Hulunbuir City in promoting the construction of "Northern Frontier Culture". This tourist route starts from the ancestral land of Tuoba Xianbei (Oroqen Banner, Hulunbuir City), and uses the route of Xianbei's southward migration (Hulunbuir - Hohhot and Horqin - Datong - Luoyang) as a link to connect various places, connecting rich historical relics, magnificent natural scenery and colorful folk culture along the route. ### Multicultural Fusion Hulunbuir is rich in natural resources, with forests, grasslands, wetlands, lakes, and rivers. Its ethnic culture is rich and colorful, and the traditional skills of many ethnic groups such as the Barhu silver making technique and birch bark making technique complement each other. This fusion of diverse cultures makes Hulunbuir a cultural treasure, attracting many tourists to explore and experience it. ## The future development of Hulunbuir tourism Hulunbuir City is actively promoting in-depth exchanges and cooperation in culture, tourism, economic and social development and other aspects among important node cities along the "Road of Integration". This will help improve the tourism quality of Hulunbuir and provide tourists with a richer and more diverse travel experience. ## Conclusion Hulunbuir, a land favored by nature, attracts many tourists to explore and experience with its magnificent natural scenery and rich cultural resources.

Is there a place whose name alone captivates you? Jiagedaqi is perhaps one of the most unique places in China. In the Oroqen language, "Jiagedaqi" means "a place with Korean pines." The name is both romantic and poetic. This administrative center in the Greater Khingan Mountains has a rather unique geographical location, situated in the vast forests of the Oroqen Autonomous Banner in Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia, yet administratively under the jurisdiction of Heilongjiang. Although small, Jiagedaqi is the largest city in the Greater Khingan Mountains. Its architectural style is unique, leaning towards European and Russian influences. The yellow walls and blue roofs stand out vividly in the white winter. Its wide streets, beautiful buildings, and picturesque environment have earned it the reputation of "Pearl of the Forest," "Emerging Forest City," and "First City of Wanli Xing'an." The Gan River flows continuously through the south of the city, never freezing even in the coldest winter months. The morning mist is ethereal and beautiful.
