Heilongjiang Autumn Colors, How to Choose Between the Greater Khingan Range and the Lesser Khingan Range?

‌🔥 The wildest autumn colors in all of China—should you rush to the Greater Khingan Range or the Lesser Khingan Range?‌ 😫 Do you struggle every autumn deciding where to go for the best scenery? Even after scrolling through countless online guides, you still can’t pick your favorite autumn destination? Don’t worry, this heartfelt guide, measured step by step, will help you decide! 🍂‌Key Differences Between the Two Ranges‌ Greater Khingan Range: Golden birch forests stretch as far as the eye can see, check in at China’s northernmost point, and you might even catch the first snow in late September. Stunning, intense, and fleeting—perfect for photography enthusiasts, geography buffs, and hardcore adventurers who go all in without hesitation! Lesser Khingan Range: “Five-colored mountain scenery” as beautiful as a painting, fewer people and tranquil views, sea of clouds at Xuanyang Peak, primitive forest hiking—ideal for niche lovers, family trips, and relaxed self-driving tours! 🚗‌Route Showdown‌ 🔸 Greater Khingan Range Extreme North 3-Day Loop: Mohe → Longjiang First Bay → Beihong Village → Evenki Reindeer Park → Beiji Village. Long drives, pack plenty of snacks, and bring a down jacket to stay warm! 🔸 Lesser Khingan Range Off-the-Beaten-Path 4-Day Deep Tour: Harbin → Nancha → Xianweng Mountain → Tangwang River → Maolangou → Xuanyang Peak → Mama Ding Primitive Forest. Wake up early at Xuanyang Peak to catch the sunrise and capture legendary shots! 🙋‍♀️‌For Those Struggling to Choose‌ Want to flood your social media with stunning photos? Choose the Greater Khingan Range! Want to quietly live like a forest wildling? Choose the Lesser Khingan Range! 🍂Autumn colors wait for no one. Are you ready? 👀 Which details about the two ranges do you want to know? Tell me in the comments!
