Jilin Travel FAQ
What's the best time of year to visit Longtou Mountain Resort for clear views of Tianchi?
Late summer (August to early September) and early autumn (mid-September to early October) offer the highest probability of clear, stable weather. Winter is stunning but access to the summit is often restricted due to snow and ice. Spring can be muddy and foggy. Even in good seasons, the summit is notorious for rolling fog that can obscure the lake for hours. Your best bet is to aim for the first shuttle up in the morning.
