Tangwanghe Forest & Strange Rocks
汤旺河林海奇石
A national 5A scenic area where granite rock formations and primeval Korean pine forest intertwine. It is the best-known attraction in Yichun.
Tangwanghe Forest & Strange Rocks Scenic Area lies in Tangwang County in northern Yichun. It is the first national 5A-rated tourist attraction in Yichun. Its highlight is 'rocks in the forest, forest on the rocks': granite formed in the Indosinian period has weathered into rock peaks, pillars and walls, all covered by primeval mixed forests dominated by Korean pine. Multiple wooden boardwalks and hiking trails offer views over the forest, and the autumn foliage, with its many layers of color, makes it a popular photography spot. The area is large and has internal shuttle buses. Covering the main trails takes half a day to a full day. Tickets and opening times follow the scenic area's announcements, and some areas close in winter. Tangwanghe has a railway station reachable by train from Harbin, or it is about a 2-hour drive from Yichun city.
Opening hours
