As the capital of Jilin Province, Changchun is the second largest city in Northeast China. It is close to Songyuan to the northwest, Siping to the southwest, Jilin to the southeast and Harbin to the northeast. Changchun's name implies the meaning of blessing and auspiciousness. However, the city has witnessed a painful history in modern China. From 1931 to 1945, Japan colonized Changchun and established Manchukuo to govern northeastern China. Thus most of the Japanese-style architecture has been preserved and opened to the public. In the 1950s and 1960s, the construction of a large number of automobile manufacturers laid a good foundation for Changchun's automobile industry. Today, Changchun is still one of the world's important automobile production and research bases.
This city is also one of the first Chinese cities to access, dub and produce films. Changchun Movie Wonderland shows the film culture and history. In addition, the sculpture art has already spread in this city, from Changchun World Sculpture Park, which has collected more than 700 sculpture works from all over the world, to the annual sculpture exhibition. In winter, visitors can see the magnificent snow scenery of Changchun and participate in various ice and snow sports and tourism festivals.
