Yanbian University “neon wall”
延边大学网红墙 · Yánbiān Dàxué Wǎnghóng Qiáng
A long building facade opposite the university gate, covered in some 70 stacked Chinese–Korean shop signs that light up at night like a scene from Seoul; Yanji’s most-photographed spot.
No booking needed30–60 minutes (longer if you eat nearby)
Tip
Come after dark and shoot from the pedestrian island by the bus stop in the middle of the road. Many of the signs belong to Korean restaurants and cafés, so it is also a good place for dinner.
