brief introduction

Rime island is named for its many and beautiful rime. The terrain here is lower than that of Jilin City, and it is surrounded by rivers. The cold and hot air intersects here. In winter, there are trees hanging almost every day, and sometimes they don't fall for several days.

Rime is a kind of ice crystal that condenses fog and water vapor on branches and leaves when it is cold. It can be divided into granular and crystalline. The granular rime structure is compact, forming a very small ice block, while the crystalline rime structure is loose, showing a large flake. The rime in Jilin is crystalline.

Detailed explanation of scenic spots

Rime Island

Since 1991, Jilin City has held a "Wusong ice and Snow Festival" every year. Jilin City has long been famous for its rime. However, most people know about the ten mile long dike in the urban area. Few people know that there is a rime island in the lower reaches of the Songhua River, 35 kilometers away from Jilin City. Rime island is named for its many and beautiful rime. The trees here are peculiar in shape. The weeping willows along the river are covered with white and crystal frost flowers. The river breeze blows and the silver wire flickers. The scenery is both wild and beautiful. Rime, commonly known as shugua, is one of the four wonders in China. There is a saying that "at night to see the fog, morning to see the hanging, until near noon to enjoy the falling flowers", which is the process of rime from nothing to have, from there to nothing. The most famous scenic spots of rime are Jilin, Lushan and Huangshan, among which "Jilin rime is a wonder in the world". Next to rime island is zengtong island. Facing each other across the river, Hantun is a good place for photography lovers

The rime of Jilin is unique in the world. Together with Guilin landscape, Yunnan Shilin and the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Jilin rime is known as China's four natural wonders. Rime is not snow or ice, but frost on the branches. Along the banks of the Songhua River, the pines and willows are covered with frost and snow, and the jade is covered with silver. To see rime in Jilin, the best place is rime island in the lower reaches of Songhua River. Most of the people who come here are photography enthusiasts, but now, more and more tourists know it.

Best viewing season

Rime appears only in winter. The best season to watch rime in Jilin is from late December to the end of February of the second year, because the formation of rime has its own unique environment and conditions.

get accommodation

Needless to say, there are many hotels of various grades and many economic chain hotels in Jilin City. But it is recommended to live on rime island. There are traditional houses with paper windows, burnt Kang and newspaper walls. In the past two years, many new houses have been built, with independent toilets and solar water heaters, which are very convenient. They ate farm food and drank corn wine from Northeast China, which is very characteristic of black land.

Entertainment on the island

Wusong island is about 40 kilometers away from Jilin City. The terrain is lower than that of Jilin City. It is surrounded by rivers. The cold and hot air intersects here. The heavy fog rising in winter often covers this island of nearly 6 square kilometers, and sometimes there is no sun in a day. In such weather, the rime hanging on the tree will not fall, and it will hang on a layer at night.

Next to rime island is Zeng Tong. The trees in zengtongtun are peculiar in shape. The weeping willows along the river are covered with pure white and crystal frost flowers. The river breeze blows and the silver wire flickers. The world is as white as a fairyland forgotten by the world.

Wusong island is opposite Wula street and Hantun river. Wula street is a Manchu town. Most of the people who live here are descendants of Manchu banners. Hantun is a small village, located on the Bank of Songhua River. Nowadays, with more people coming, villagers will decorate some guest rooms at home for tourists. The paper windows, the fire Kang, the newspaper wall, the host cooking in the wood room, the air is filled with the peculiar smell of cooking smoke, you have to sit cross legged like the northeast people on the Kang, eat with a big bowl of farm food, drink is the northeast corn wine, all with the unique flavor of black land. After a pot of Shaojiu, all people will be infected by the simple and forthright here, and the chill and sleepiness will disappear. What is the feeling of happiness in winter? I'm afraid it's just a bowl of hot wine and chicken stewed with mushrooms.

If you can get up early the next morning, you can go to see the sunrise. The rime island in the early morning is very beautiful. The Songhua River flows quietly. In the distance are the dry branches of trees. Because the river water is above zero, there is "steam" on the river. The wind blows away the steam, just like being in a fairyland.

In Jilin, rime can be photographed not only in rime Island, but also in several other places. For example, wujiashao on the west side of Fengman dam in the southeast of Jilin City, which is 18 kilometers away from the urban area, and the west line of Jifeng highway are all good places to shoot rime. But in recent years, the city has developed rapidly, and many buildings and libraries have been built along the river. The pure natural things are constantly destroyed, and gradually more people come to travel and less people come to take photos. The middle section of Songjiang Road in the urban area is also like this. It is decorated with modern high-rise buildings, and rime is just an ornament in winter. So the rime in the natural state should belong to rime island. In recent years, when it comes to the Spring Festival, I don't know how many movie friends come here hundreds of miles, thousands of miles or even tens of thousands of miles to enjoy and photograph rime.

The distance is about 5 km, driving for 20 minutes. When you enter the village, you can see an apricot yellow flag with red teeth. On it, there are three big words rime park. This is the rime photography creation base established by Jilin Photographers Association to receive the film friends from all over China. Seeing these three words means that you are home. There are several thatched cottages, paper windows, burnt Kang and newspaper walls. Although the conditions here are not as good as those in cities, they eat farmhouse style food and drink corn wine from Northeast China, which is very characteristic of black land.
