Meteorite Shower Museum
Dongbei has seen a few mysterious happenings in its time. In the early 1900s a huge explosion in Siberia rocked the area and rumors circulated of UFO activity, meteor strikes and even early Russian nuclear testing.
Songhua Lake Area
Songhua Lake Area (Songhuahu Fengjingqu), located 24 kilometers east of the city center, is a popular tourist spot close to the city.
Wen Miao Confucius Temple
Seemingly out of place in such a small and comparatively insignificant city, the large Confucius Temple (Wen Miao) in Jilin is a grand, stately structure. The temple is ranked as one of the four largest of its kind along with the Qufu, Nanjing and Beijing temples.
Rime in Jilin
Rime, also known as “snow willow,” “tree hanging” and “ice flower,” is a kind of phenomenon where winter fog condenses on tree branches and leaves to form individual white ice crystals, according to meteorologists.
