The winter travel guide to Arxan is here~
First, the conclusion:
It is not recommended to visit Arxan in winter, the travel experience is not very good, winter is the off-season, although there are few people and you can book the whole place, but there are also few hotels and restaurants open, and there are not many choices, if possible, it is better to come in autumn, the end of September and the beginning of October is the most beautiful, if you come in winter, you can only see thick snow everywhere.
Tour:
Follow the line from Arxan city - Bai Lang town - Arxan Forest Park - Yiershi, one day in each place is enough
①Visit the European-style buildings in Arxan city, and go to Lu Jiao Bay and Snow Village
②Bai Lang town has Aobao, Rime Corridor, and Deer Park
③See the unfrozen river in Arxan Forest Park
④Yiershi is a good place to shop, the prices are lower than in Arxan city, and there are more people
Transportation:
Arxan has a train station, Yiershi has an airport, you can choose according to your needs, in Arxan city you need to rely on the B&B owner to help call a car, in Yiershi you can hail a taxi on the street, the starting price is all five yuan, to go to Bai Lang town and Arxan Forest Park you need to charter a car round trip (you can compare prices)
Food:
Basically, it's all barbecue or iron pot stew and hot pot
①In Arxan city, there is Jixiang Grassland Barbecue, Unique Barbecue, Sticky Bean Bag Iron Pot Stew, there is a big supermarket in Arxan called Wang Duo Duo (I think that's the name, I don't quite remember) where you can buy things
②In Bai Lang town, there is not much open in winter, eat at whichever is open
③There are not many shops open in the Forest Park in winter, you need to prepare your own food
④In Yiershi, there is Pastoral Song Barbecue, Yu Hao Barbecue (the fried potato chips are very delicious), Ding Ding Supermarket where you can buy things
Accommodation:
In Arxan, we recommend Manbu Yash Boutique Hotel (the boss is very easy-going, just like home), in Yiershi, we recommend Pine Nut Leisure Hotel (clean, relatively new), do not stay in the Forest Park! There is only one open in winter, very average! The winter room prices here are incredibly cheap, feel free to book, it won't be bad, Arxan has not been developed much in winter, so the commercial atmosphere is not heavy, there are fewer choices for buying and staying at each scenic spot in winter, it is not particularly convenient, the advantage is that because there are not many people, the snow here is really thick and pure, and it is very quiet, there are not many tourists wherever you go, basically you can take pictures as you wish
The Unfreeze River is located in the city of Hinggan League Aershan, a section of the river of the Halaha River 74 kilometers from the city. The cold of the 39th, dripping into ice, all the big rivers and streams are formed into deep ice, only this section of the river is hot and flowing, and it has never been frozen for many years, which is amazing. Although I have never seen the winter wonders of the frozen river, the golden autumn of the frozen river is also intoxicating. Clear river water, golden trees, in the autumn sun everything is so quiet and beautiful.
The Unfreeze River is located in the city of Aershan, Hinggan League, and is a section of the Halaha River 74 kilometers away from the city. It is cold in the three or nine, and the dripping water becomes ice, so the big rivers and streams become deep ice. Only this section of the river is hot and flowing, and it has never frozen for many years, which is amazing. Although I have never seen the winter wonders of the unfrozen river, the golden autumn of the unfrozen river is also intoxicating. The clear river water, the golden leaves, everything is so quiet and beautiful in the autumn sun.
It is very beautiful in summer here. In winter, there is a feeling of silver wrapped in vegetarian wraps. The whole area is actually quite good. There are also more animals. There are quite a lot of people here. Unfortunately, the wind is relatively large. Can't stay too long.
The non-freeze river is the Hara River, flowing through the Aershan Scenic Area. When the weather is good, some places are very good-looking to take pictures. Now I can’t drive by myself, I can’t park at will.
There is a "freeze river" in the Santan Gorge of the Haraha River to Jinjianggou Forest Farm Section. The upstream and downstream of the river are frozen three feet. The reason why the "freeze river" is generated is because of the large number of geothermal presence near the river section. At -40 ℃, the river water in the river section will not freeze. Water grass is also growing in the water, the river is steaming hot, the sunset glow, the colorful, extremely spectacular.
The name of the hongmao willow is the key protection plant of the national level. Because the hongmao willow is water-loving, it grows on the banks of the river. Because its young branches are summer green and winter red, it is quite beautiful and eye-catching, and is called the hongmao willow by the local people. In addition to playing an important role in revetting the shore, this precious resource is more valuable as an important raw material for crafts. The red willow branches have the characteristics of bright red color and unfading color, so they become the best of willow crafts.
