Changchun

The Palace Museum of the Manchu State, formerly the "Executive Yuan of the State of Manchukuo" (1932–1945), stands in Changchun, Jilin Province, as a stark reminder of Japan’s colonial ambition in Northeast China. Built atop the ruins of the Qing Dynasty’s Beiyang Arsenal, this complex served as the puppet regime’s headquarters under Puyi, China’s last emperor. Today, it is a UNESCO-recognized historical site and museum, preserving artifacts, architecture, and testimonies of a fractured era.

Jingyuetan National Forest Park, a pristine ecological gem nestled in Changchun, Jilin Province, is renowned as a "Green Pearl" in Northeast China. Established in 1989 and spanning 96.38 square kilometers, the park blends lush forests, serene lakes, and cultural heritage into a harmonious retreat. Designated a national 5A-level tourist attraction, it hosts over 3 million visitors annually, offering a sanctuary for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.
