At the turn of autumn and winter, I encountered a magical ice and fire wonderland at Changbai Mountain's Heaven Lake!

At this moment of autumn and winter transition, I was at Heaven Lake on Changbai Mountain, simultaneously feeling the chill of ice and snow and the warmth from the earth's core. The mountains and rivers are magnificent, life is passionate. This journey completely healed my mental exhaustion. ☀️ The weather was amazing! Not a breeze for miles. The temperature at the summit was -8°C, but it felt like spring. I’m passing this luck to everyone who likes this!✨ 📍At the peak of Heaven Lake, the gem-blue lake surface was as still as glass💎. Surrounded by snowy mountains, the reflections were crystal clear. It was my first time seeing the entire windless Heaven Lake. Legend says those who see it will be lucky all year long🍀. I even held my breath while taking photos, afraid to disturb this fairyland. ♨️Julong Hot Spring The steaming vapor shimmered under the sunlight. The 68°C hot spring gushed out, like the earth was breathing! The hot spring water flowed freely, painting one brilliant oil painting after another on the land. I tried the hot spring boiled eggs🥚— the egg whites were jelly-like, the yolks fully cooked. 3 for 10 yuan, such a great deal~ 💫Must-know tips: ✅Choose consecutive sunny days to travel! The chance to see Heaven Lake without wind is very high. ✅Knee pads can be rented! The mountain trails are much easier to walk on sunny days. ✅Blue-toned clothes are a perfect match with the snowy scenery📸. ✅Bring a thermos! Drinking hot water at the summit brings immense happiness. Standing at the volcanic crater, gazing at the clear blue sky and the "blue tears," feeling the pulse of the hot spring in near-freezing temperatures, at this moment, I understood what it means for heaven and earth to hold great beauty.
