Summer wellness tourism flourishes in Yichun, Northeast China

Yichun's summer wellness offerings go beyond sensory experiences — they can be taken home. Every forest product is a summer-nurtured gift from "lucid waters and lush mountains": fresh birch sap (tapped only in summer when trees thrive) and handcrafted agarwood ornaments (shaped by the forest's summer warmth). These aren't just souvenirs — they let travelers hold onto Yichun's summer freshness, healthful energy, and memories of a cool getaway.

To fully unlock Yichun's summer "joyful living" vibe, a rural trip is essential. In summer, rice fields burst into green waves under the sun, letting travelers trade city stress for rural rhythms: walking through sun-dappled paddies, breathing in grain-scented breezes, or watching sunsets by the fields. Travelers can also immerse themselves in the unique Korean ethnic culture here, such as learning to make traditional kimchi or enjoying folk dances with local families. Here, fatigue fades, and travelers rediscover summer's simple, down-to-earth leisure — the heart of Yichun's beloved summer wellness experience.
