The Puppet Manchurian Palace Museum, one of the three remaining great imperial palaces in China, is a must-see when in Changchun.

To learn about the history of the city's film industry in a playful way, you should visit the Changchun Film Theme Park, the first park of its kind in China that integrates film entertainment and tourism.

The national forest park, skiing resorts, historical buildings, a number of other parks and scenic spots are also worth a look.

Located in Shanhe Town, Shuangyang District, at 91 kilometers (56.54 miles) from Changchun, the Diaoshuihu Scenic Area features mountains, waters, forests, peaks, caves and stones. The area was named after the Diaoshuihu Waterfall, which is 10 meters (32.8 feet) wide, with a drop of 7 meters (22.97 feet).

What is even more impressive about the area is a karst cave, measuring 386 meters (1266.4 feet) in length and 73 meters (239.5 feet) in height, which was formed 300 million years ago. Composed of two main halls, the cave is the largest karst attraction with the highest altitude in northeast China. It is a good place to visit in summer.

Admission: 30 yuan (US$4.9) / person
