Jilin City aka: 吉林市

Its weather is perfect in summer-not too warm, and even breezy. It’s noted in China for its brutal winters, but even in that season it’s worth visiting for all the sights-icicles hanging from tree branches, frozen rivers, snow up to your knees, etc.

The locals’ skin is said to be healthy and smooth because of the “soft” quality of the water there. I can attest to this—the water feels silky on the skin. The air quality is equally good; there’s hardly a cloudy or hazy day to be seen.

The residents are extremely friendly and hospitable.
