Wudanlian Chi is about 5 hrs by bus from Harbin or 3.5 hr from Heihe. This famous geological park has 5 connected lakes & 14 volcanoes. It is interesting to note that the last volcanic eruption in Laohei Shan took place in 1720 during the early Qing dynasty. I found the pictorial description on the Laohei Shan volcanic eruption presented at the volcanic sites very educational !
I stayed for 2 nights in the Wudalian Chi town centre, very near to the bus terminal. From the down town to the Wudalian chi scenic area, the bus ride took about 1 hr. Upon arrival, you could buy a private mini-van ticket which takes you to the designated lakes & volcano areas of your choice. Entrance, speed boat & internal shuttle bus service fees were collected at the point of entry.
I spent 2 days in the volcano scenic area which allowed time for me to explore & take a speed boat ride to two of the major lakes, Laohei Shan crater, Huo Shao Shan lava field & stone sea and the Yaoquan spring & mountain. Walking uphill to the crater posed a small challenge to me but well worth the efforts as the view on the crater & surrounding area were simply spectacular & stunning !
My two night stays in Wudalian Chi downtown area were very pleasant and I really enjoyed my time there ! As the weather was cool at night, taking an evening stroll in the down town area was very relaxing & refreshing !
Tourists could also opt for a stay in the Wudalian Chi scenic area which is closer to the lakes & volcanic scenic spots. The scenic area has a bus terminal which provides direct bus services to Harbin.
