Heavenly Lake unveils its wonder to world media
Shuttle buses are seen running up to the Changbai Mountain of Northeast China's Jilin province July 20, 2023. The 2023 "A Date with China" international media tour visited the mountain, the highest peak in Northeast China and highest mountain range on the eastern edge of Eurasia. The Changbai Mountain Reserve is the UNESCO "Man and the Biosphere Program" nature reserve and the international A-class nature reserve with its unique and diverse vertical vegetation landscape and volcanic landform landscape. Together with its Heavenly Lake, waterfalls, snow sculptures, and winding forests, Tianchi, its highest peak, has been ranked by the Guinness World Records as the highest of its kind.

It is said that to know China one must experience three things - to walk on The Great Wall, to eat Peking duck and to watch the Peking Opera. Although I have done all three, and much more, I have not seen 10% of the wonders and beauty that this country offers.
