Hancongling Red Tourism & Maple Area
寒葱岭
A Red heritage site and maple-viewing area beside National Highway 201, with remains of Northeast Anti-Japanese fighters. Autumn sets the hillsides ablaze, making it one of the most popular maple spots in Yanbian.
Hancongling Red Tourism & Maple Area lies about 45 km southwest of Dunhua, right beside National Highway 201. It was an important base of the Second Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army. The scenic area includes reconstructed secret camps, martyrs’ monuments and exhibits. Maple and other broadleaf trees cover the hillsides, turning from green to yellow and then to red each autumn, and crowds peak during the Maple Festival. Admission is about 60 yuan, and wooden walkways let you climb for views. It is about one hour by car from Dunhua and can be combined with the northern Changbai Mountain area toward Erdaobaihe. During peak foliage, arrive early on weekends to avoid traffic.
