Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng Ecological Park

　　The Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng Ecological Park scenic area is adjacent to the Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve and located within the Songjianghe National Forest Park. In 2014, it was elevated to a national AAAA-level tourist attraction. It is a distinctive ecological tourism destination themed around the cultural heritage of Changbai Mountain ginseng, integrating forest tourism, sightseeing experiences, and science education.

　　During its development, the Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng Ecological Park has initially formed a landscape layout comprising “one museum, one platform, and ten gardens.” The one museum refers to the Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng Museum; the one platform is the Changbai Mountain First View Observation Deck; the ten gardens include the Wild Ginseng Viewing Garden, Ganoderma Viewing Garden, Gastrodia Elata Viewing Garden, Ginseng Harvesting Customs Experience Garden, Sanjiang Deer Park, Carbonized Wood and Pumice Viewing Garden, Birch Forest Viewing Garden, Windfallen Trees Viewing Garden, Amber Wood Viewing Garden, and Fishing Garden. Additionally, there are smaller natural attractions such as the “Ginseng Affection Tree,” Ant Kingdom, and Cloud Fungus Tree.

　　The Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng Ecological Park has developed a circular walking trail of over 2,000 meters. Two-thirds of the trail winds through secondary forests, where the park has cultivated valuable medicinal herbs such as wild ginseng, ganoderma, and gastrodia elata, as well as animals like sika deer. The remaining third of the trail traverses the virgin forest along the Luming River. This area is a typical representation of Changbai Mountain’s primeval forest, featuring towering trees and the clear waters of the Luming River flowing quietly. The U-shaped valley carved by the river, along with the unique primitive scenery on both banks, offers a rare glimpse of the natural beauty of the Changbai Mountain region.
