5 stars! An immersive experience of Korean ethnic culture, the ultimate photo opportunity in Yanji! ✨
The Yanji Folk Culture Park, a must-visit in Yanji, truly exceeded expectations! A 30 RMB ticket (even cheaper online) allows for a fully immersive experience of Korean culture – incredible value! The park is open from 9 am to 9 pm, giving you plenty of time. It's also conveniently located just a 15-minute taxi ride from Chaoyangchuan Airport.
The biggest surprise was the Hanbok (traditional Korean dress) photoshoot! The park is filled with clothing rental shops offering hundreds of styles to choose from, including courtly and everyday options. The embroidered patterns of peonies and cranes are exquisite, and a complete set with makeup and hairstyle is very cost-effective. Strolling through the century-old houses with their blue tiles and white walls in trendy Hanbok, the stone paths, pottery jars, and upturned eaves serve as natural backdrops. Every shot looks like a K-drama heroine – the whole park is filled with "Yanbian princesses," creating an amazing photo atmosphere.
Besides photos, the cultural experiences are also incredibly rich! You can make rice cakes and taste sweet mulberry rice wine at the Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience Hall, sit on a heated floor and listen to a gayageum performance, instantly transporting you to a traditional Korean village. There are also traditional sports activities like swings and archery, suitable for both adults and children. In the evening, you can enjoy exciting long drum dances and fan dances, creating a fantastic atmosphere.
Don't miss the authentic Korean cuisine in the park! The kimchi, cold noodles, and barbecue are all delicious and perfect for recharging after a long day. The park is commercialized but not chaotic, with full 5G coverage, allowing for seamless real-time sharing on social media and connecting with photographers to adjust angles – a fantastic experience.
Whether you want to take beautiful photos, experience folk customs, or introduce traditional culture to your children, this place has it all! We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and allowing 3-4 hours for a thorough visit. It's sure to be an unforgettable stop on your Yanji trip, and I've already recommended it to my friends!
