It was another weekend, and I made an appointment with some colleagues to take a trip to Wudalianchi during the weekend. I studied the strategy carefully beforehand, so I’d like to give it a thumbs up! ! !
We set off after get off work on Friday. Since the time is not too generous, the criterion for choosing the itinerary is the fastest. Therefore, the first stop is to take the high-speed train and arrive in Qiqihar in nearly three hours. , which is the closest city to the Wudalianchitong High-speed Railway, and it was almost ten o'clock in the evening when we arrived.
The night view of Qiqihar South Station is still very beautiful. The car rental company we made an appointment with has already driven the car to the station parking lot and is waiting. It can still work in the middle of the night, which is better than the car rental companies we have contacted before. I have the impression that many car rental companies are unwilling to work during non-working hours.
Driving a rental car, we arrived at the hotel we had booked in Qi City and checked in. Because we were new to Heilongjiang, we needed to download the local pass code, which we did with the help of the hotel front desk staff. In fact, we were studying it on the train. Unfortunately, the design of the Longjiang code is a bit complicated and confusing.
The front desk was very enthusiastic and suggested that we modify the hotel reservation method, saying that it would save more money, but our organizer was not far behind, and we had already received the discount she mentioned.
We set off at five o'clock the next morning and drove along several sections of highway towards Wudalianchi City.
Wudalianchi Scenic Area is located in the north of Wudalianchi City. We passed by the city and entered Wudalianchi Town before we truly reached our destination. The town is very small and can be said to be located inside the scenic area. You will reach the hotel as soon as you enter the town and turn a corner. Of course, we had to check the pass code when entering the town. Fortunately, we all came from a safe area, so the journey was smooth.
The time we arrived at the hotel was 8.15. We discussed with the front desk whether we could have breakfast a day in advance, because we might leave early the next morning and would not be able to make it. The hotel agreed, which was a bit unexpected.
I saw the tourist map of Wudalianchi Scenic Area at the front desk of the hotel.
After breakfast, I found on the hotel glass that the hotel said that guests can use the hotel's car to enter the scenic spot. There were six of us, which was just right, so we discussed it with the hotel. The driver enthusiastically agreed and explained to us what places can be seen in the scenic spot. Ticket prices and other information, we decided to take his advice. Coincidentally, a young man from Changzhou was also willing to go with us, so our team became seven people.
Situation in the car after departure
One of the famous things in Wudalianchi is mineral water. I remember drinking a kind of sparkling water before, but I saw it again this time, so I just took a box to the car.
On the way to the first scenic spot, the driver and tour guide began to introduce the local situation. Wudalianchi is actually a river. The source of the water is unknown. It is probably underground water. The riverbanks are wide in some places and very narrow in others. It looks like five rivers. The lake is connected together, so it is named Wudalianchi, which means five connected pools. The first and second pools are relatively small, and there is nothing open around the pools. The third pool is large and open to tourists. Taking a boat trip on the pond, as for the fourth and fifth ponds, is not our goal this time.
You can see these words when you enter the town. We are leaving the town towards the scenic spot.
In the distance is Erchi. I saw a car parked by the lake.
Soon we arrived at the edge of Sanchi, where there was a large square. The name of Sanchi was Bailong Lake.
White dragon in the square.
Ahead is Bailong Lake, and that cruise ship is the one we will board soon.
At the ticket office, tickets are quite expensive, 100 yuan/person.
Embark from the dock.
In fact, all the lakes under the sky seem to be similar, a piece of calm water.

Same as the boat we took
After sailing, I first saw the office building of "China Maritime". I thought that it was also called "Marine" on an inland lake.
Cab
Inside the cabin, everyone ran outside to see the scenery.
The black stones on the shore are stones formed by magma after volcanic eruptions. There is the youngest volcano in China. The last time it erupted was in the Qing Dynasty.
Sail for about an hour, circle around the water, and return to the original pier to land.
I guess this dried fish is also considered a local specialty.
