Harbin Winter Travel Guide This 3-5-day ice and snow trip in Harbin is worth learning.

Harbin, a typical cold city in China, is located in the northeast. Every year, various ice sculpture exhibitions are held here to attract domestic and foreign tourists. The world of ice and snow here is even more desirable.

First, things to know first

Harbin has a short history. At the beginning of last century, the appearance of the Middle East Railway gradually formed a large-scale international metropolis. Harbin is a city with rivers, mountains, cities, ice and snow and exotic cultures. Its biggest feature is the exotic buildings covered with snow and ice, and the ink paintings in the snow and ice.

The exotic architecture in Harbin is the urban planning and product of the period when Russia and other countries colonized northern China at the beginning of last century. It has continued since then. Looking up at the old city, that is, Nangang, Daoli and Daowai, you will see European-style buildings with red roofs, yellow walls and white windows. Firm and unique.

Generally speaking, to travel to Harbin in winter is mainly to satisfy four wishes:

1. Drink beer, taste northeast pig-killing dishes, and visit Red Square in Russia.

2. Eat Madeir popsicles on Central Street and candied haws on Songhua River. Taste authentic Russian western food.

3. Look at a century-old building in a street, that is, the central street, the church, the consulate, in a country dominated by Russian customs.

4. Play Harbin Ice and Snow World. Enjoy the fairy tale colors like ice and snow, and feel the cleanliness and coldness of the ice and snow world.

there is no need to elaborate on beer. Of course, it's a local beer-Harbin beer. Harbin beer produced by China No.1 Brewery Harbin Brewery. In 19, a brewery was founded by Russians.

Harbin was once called "Little Paris of the East". This "city of music", in the summer of 1988, Harbin Beer Festival and the first International Beer Expo came out at the same time. Since then, Oktoberfest has opened on time in July every year.

You will see beautiful women in Harbin at the Oktoberfest.

Marty popsicles and Russian western food in the center of the street are also authentic Russian food with a history of 1 years. Sugar-coated haws are common winter snacks in Northeast China.

Second, how to play in Harbin

The important scenic spots in Harbin are mainly concentrated in Daoli District. If you want to see the world of ice and snow, you can choose Friday morning or noon after January 5th and stay near Daoli District, Central Street, Zhao Lin Street and Shangzhi Street in Harbin.

choose a hotel not far from the subway entrance. Wear cotton trousers, warm shoes, hat and gloves after check-in. After lunch, take the subway to the world of ice and snow. The ice and snow sculptures here are works of art carved by artists from all over the world. Buy tickets online in advance. (If you go to Harbin in the morning, you can choose to take a trip to Harbin Grand Theatre in Jiangbei District in the morning and then see snow sculpture. )

Day 1:

If you go to Harbin in the afternoon, you will go to see snow sculpture for 2-3 hours first, and then go to the park 1.5km away to see the ice sculptures at 4pm. At the moment, brightly lit, dark but not cold. There are not many tourists. About 2-3 hours, you should have seen enough. It's cold and crowded at the moment. You can go out and have a drink at your place. Daoli District is full of hotels and pubs.

The next day:

On Saturday, you can choose to enjoy Russian-style buildings, eat western food and eat Maadyr popsicles in the Central Street. The streets are full of young and fashionable beauties. Shopping malls on both sides are crowded, and they like to buy souvenirs. Walking on this pedestrian street, you will feel that you have come to a city in a European country.

the central street is about 1.6 kilometers long. The road is paved with pebbles.

after turning to the central street, you can navigate or ask passers-by the way to Hagia Sophia. Ten minutes and a kilometer away! The most majestic and tall Orthodox Church is just around the corner! If you catch a snowy day, this beauty and miracle will make you feel happy and excited. At this moment, you won't feel cold, but you will be amazed: Harbin, the northern ice city, is so beautiful!

As night falls, Central Street and Hagia Sophia are more beautiful and exotic.

Day 3:

You can walk along Stalin Park on the Songhua River. If you are in a hurry, you can swim in one day the next day or the third day.

Enjoy snow sculpture's works of art for free. Stroll through the Hundred Years River Bridge and the Railway Museum. You can go to the frozen Songhua River and get in touch with the snow. Make a snowman and have a snowball fight. Remember that the iron in the northeast is sweet in winter, but don't be greedy.

On the other side of the river is Sun Island, where you can see the toll snow sculpture!

At night, the banks of Songhua River are colorful and more charming.

Day 4:

Visit the Volga Manor. One and a half minutes is enough. And every time I go to Chenggaozi around 11 o'clock, I will go into the park to enjoy the scenery warmly after eating the pig-killing dishes. Leave around 4 p. m. The light is good.

When you come back in the evening, you can get off at the North Square of Harbin Railway Station and enjoy the Art Nouveau Railway Station and the century-old St. Yves Cathedral.

If you are interested in churches, you can take time to visit two Russian churches opposite the Second Hospital of Dongdazhi Street and the Church of Our Lady at 47 Sike Street. This church is a baroque building and a unique scenery in Harbin.

There is also the most beautiful modern building, which is Harbin Grand Theatre, a beautiful landmark building. In Jiangbei Taiyangdao Wetland Park. Free visit. Free parking. I have done aerial photography, and it has been published on the front page.

although there are many places, there are not many people in these places. All the scenic spots are free except the World of Ice and Snow and the Volga Manor.

Third, other play options

If you have 6 days, please set aside Saturday and Sunday. I suggest you sign up for the two-day tour of Xiang Xue in advance. There are many outdoor travel companies in Harbin, which spend two days in Xiang Xue, and only need 3 yuan/person in peak season. Including room and board and shuttle bus. Please remember:

1. Be sure to choose an outdoor team. They have no extra expenses.

2. The action dates are Saturday, Sunday and 2 days. Under normal circumstances, outdoor organizations do not go to snow on weekdays.

Snow is a fairy tale world of snow, dreamlike, not as cold as you think.

The thickness of the snow there is about 1.5 to 2.5 meters.

If you choose to come to Harbin on the 15th day of the first month after the Spring Festival and travel to the snow, you only need 21 yuan/person for two days' hot money. But at this time, the world of ice and snow in Harbin has melted.
