5.0 Guomao Shopping Mall (1 review)
- Very good friendly service
Shopping Malls

Great selection, Western style shopping mall with world brands and reasonable priced stores. Definitely recommend. May seem a bit pricy for China, but the goods in this mall are of the highest quality so worth it. See more..

- Muslim food and flavours0
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Visited here many many times since when I was a child at age 7!! Coming back home back in Aug 2010, went here again and realized a lot had changed within the past 10 years! More restaurants and less markets are here now! If you're dare, you can try some beef liver. There are absolutely NO PORK ALLOWED HERE! Visited in Aug 2010. See more..

4.5 Wusong Island (43 reviews)
- Beautiful place
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Islands

First time brought here by our Chinese friends. Its quite a long distance from our hotel in Xiamen Street to this place but when you reach and see the beautiful place, its all worth the trip. All along the road leading into this place, the trees were covered with white snow, the fields too were covered all white. What a beauty. When you snap pictures, it looks more like an art then real. We didn't manage to walk much into the place as it was quite slippery even though our shoes were supposed to be anti-skid. It was so beautiful especially when wind blew and the snow flakes fall onto you. Will try and come again when I visit Jilin next time but of cause, the timing must be right as not everyday you can see the Wusong cos it depends on the temperature. See more..
4.5 Songhuahu Ski Field (20 reviews)
- Great Skiing, clean and well maintained slopes, good infrastructure
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent More than 3 hours Ski & Snowboard Areas

We've been here the second winter for a long weekend. We rent a small appartment in one of the Phase 1 buildings, clean well furnished and a lot of space for four. Breakfast in another building, typical chinese style, but also for foreigners you will not stay hungry. Skiing slopes are well mantained, wide and a lot areas for beginners quite feasible. Lifts and Gondola in super conditions, spotless clean and the great thing, not too much people, even on Sunday nearly no waiting time. Infrastracture in the Resort quite good, several small restaurents, KFC, Supermarket and also the different Restaurents in the Japanese Hotel are available. Swimming pool / SPA in the Hotel is open for everyone (you've to buy tickets) and it's great after a long day skiing to soak in the hot water. Overall we like it a lot, people are friendly, rental equipment is on a very good level and you can come without anything. See more..
4.5 Beidahu Ski Resort (17 reviews)
- This is a good resort
Ski & Snowboard Areas

This is a good resort in terms of skiing, especially for China. The runs aren't long but they are well groomed and when I was there, they weren't crowded. The snow is powdery and dry. I would definitely go back. I stayed at clubmed, if you have kids I would r ecommend it. If not the Beidahu ski resort next door would suffice. Definitely the best skiing I have done in China. The hire equipment is fairly new and good quality. See more..
4.5 Longtan Mountain (12 reviews)
- Great view to Jilin City
Thursday: 7:30 AM - 5:30 PM Mountains

It is a little hard to climb up in January because a lot of snow, but you'll be rewarded by a fantastic view to the city and some worth seeing temples. In the night the mountain is overwhelming lightened, this is a MUST SEE!! See more..
4.5 Linjiangmen Bridge (11 reviews)
- Amazing bridge
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Bridges

This spectacular bridge lights up with neon lights at nigh time. Walk along the beautiful songhua River and enjoy the sights of jilin. Perfect place for a stroll after dinner with young children. See more..
4.5 Beishan Ice-snow Tourism World (3 reviews)
- Tons of fun
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Ski & Snowboard Areas
I like this place very much. It is good for kids, maybe even 3 years old. My kid is almost 3, and she did the snow slide by herself. I was impressed. There are also some other activities for adults and food also available. See more..
4.0 Songhua Lake (53 reviews)
- Take the boat ride!
Thursday: 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM Bodies of Water

Or don't. We had no idea what we were getting into when we took the boat ride. We were surprised to end up at Five Tiger Island, a theme park that as of our visit was not yet complete. The entry fee is cheap (forget, something like 10 RMB) but the rides cost extra. If you want to sit outside on one of the standard boats, you'll pay 40 RMB for a small plastic table and chairs, but this beats the potentially stifling heat of the cabin. As is common in China, the animals are kept in conditions that are sub-standard by western standards. Bring food. You can take the city bus from Jilin almost all the way, but will then have to transfer to site specific tour buses. See more..
4.0 Jilin Beishan Park (50 reviews)
- Bei Shan Park - worth a visit during the day and again at night!
Thursday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Parks

Bei Shan Park was one of the highlights to my visit to Jilin City. There are at least three temples on the gentle climb to the top of the hill. The views from the top are wonderful. Cost is 5 RMB entrance. It is also worthwhile visiting again at night. Although the hill park is closed (no entry fee) the views of the park lit up in many colors are gorgeous. It is very interesting to see hundreds of Chinese dancing around the large entrance area, others are in skipping groups. Well worth a visit. See more..
4.0 Jilin Catholic Church (36 reviews)
- Built in 1913 and still in excellent condition
Thursday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Religious Sites

We visited the Catholic Church today. We were very surprised at the number of Ethnic Chinese wedding couples there to be photographed and make their marriage vows. This church really does have a history. it was built with the guidance of Europeans in 1913. And then has survived the first Chinese republic, the Japanese invasion where the city and church were occupied from 1938 to 1945 and then the war between the Communists and the Kuomintang (who now reside on the island of Taiwan) The church is fully maintained and with all the paintings and artifacts one would expect. The series depicting the "Stations of the Cross" was particularly well done and a moving tribute to the series of people who have protected and maintained this glowing symbol of Christianity for over 100 years.

3.5 Mopan Mountain of Jilin (3 reviews)
- 很不错的
Thursday: 7:30 AM - 6:00 PM Mountains

小马过河试过了才能知道水的深浅！我今年去的，感觉很不错。磨盘山很奇特，宛如一朵盛开莲花。外面远处是不会看见的，只有走到山脚的一定距离，才会豁然开朗。现在已经全天开放了，不收门票了！再说还有万德寺，里面有很多高僧大德的，可以拜访下！！！

3.5 Zhuqueshan Ski Field (3 reviews)
- Something different to see.
Thursday: 7:00 AM - 6:00 PM Ski & Snowboard Areas
We spent a few hours up the top of the mountain. The cable car was efficient and gave us good views. If you don't wish to ski or go on a toboggan ride there's not a lot to do. Hot coffee and cake was a nice alternative, and the pristine scenery is lovely. See more..
