The Changbai Mountain Range borders between China and North Korea. It is believed to be the mythical birthplace of the ancestors of the Manchu state and the Chinese Qing Dynasty’s founder. The highlight is Heaven Lake, a crater lake laying within a caldera; don’t forget the legend of Heaven Lake Monster living in the deepest lake in China, which was recorded in historical books and also witnessed and photographed accidentally in modern times.
Looks beautiful, I’ll put that on my bucket list of places I want to see in China. Mountains and a lake! Perfect quiet getaway.
Glad you like it!
By the way,impressed by what you are doing. If your teachers are willing to tour around Beijing or others beautiful places in China, highly recommend the Beijing day tour for just RMB 100 and more bargains at http://pages.english.ctrip.com/tours/beijing-tours/
Cool, I will add your link to the information package we send out to all of our teachers who have accepted teaching positions.
