Hunchun City
A border city at the junction of China, North Korea, and Russia, where Fangchuan offers a view of three countries at a glance, making it a unique place to experience the Tumen River frontier charm.
Hunchun City is located in eastern Jilin Province, southeast of Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, in the lower reaches of the Tumen River. Bordering Russia and North Korea, it is an important border port city in Northeast China. The representative attraction is the Fangchuan Scenic Area, where climbing the observation tower offers a distant view of North Korea and Russia on both sides of the Tumen River, famous for "seeing three countries at a glance." Visitors can also taste Korean ethnic delicacies and Russian-style seafood. The climate is most comfortable from May to October, with autumn foliage painting the forests. The Jilin-Tumen-Hunchun High-speed Railway connects to Hunchun Station, accessible by bullet train from Yanji or Changchun. Please carry valid identification when traveling in border areas.
