Yichun---to clear your lungs in the city of forests
Time: early September
Temperature: about 20 ℃
Yichun, facing Russia across the river, is a beautiful city in northeastern Heilongjiang Province. The Xiao Hinggan Mountains span across the whole city. As an important timber production base, Yichun is also called the city of forests.
Starting in early September, the weather becomes cool in Yichun. If people want to enjoy the most beautiful forest, Wuyuehua Mountain is the best choice. Dark yellow maple leaves are Wuyuehua Mountain’s first color in autumn, and then the dark yellow will turn fresh red. Pines such as Korean pine and spruce are still green. Thus, the mountain in September is multicolored.
People can also visit the largest, best preserved Korean pine primary forest of Asia. Crossing the Tangwanghe stone forest, passing the Yixiantian (a ray from the sky), people can see the broad forest with more than 200 kinds of trees such as white birch and elm. Leaves are turning red or yellow. The best way to enjoy the forest is to bathe in the rays from the sun, hear the wind through the pines and take a deep breath, letting the fresh air clear your lungs.
