Mohe County, located in the northernmost part of China, shines with a unique brilliance with its majestic mountains, passionate water, and unique geographical location. , attracting tourists from all over the world to stop here and appreciate the beautiful feeling in the meandering paintings.

Mohe in summer is a green poem. The mountains are green, the water is green, even the wind blowing against the face is green, and the green that stretches to the sky embraces the small town. It looks like a soul-stirring freehand painting, which further highlights the splendor of the small town. Take a deep breath, the air is sweet and refreshing, like sweet spring water, full of the fragrance of nature. Wandering in the clean and tidy streets, with flowers blooming everywhere and green grass like mushrooms, one can forget about the beauty of the small town.

Prairie Riding

The sparkling jade belt wrapping around the small town is the Heilongjiang, the border river between China and Russia. It is the only river in the country that has not been polluted. The source of such a big river is mysterious and desirable.

The winding Shilka River and the clear green Ergun River meet at the foot of a gentle and round mountain. Together, there is stability and turbulence, and solemnity implies vigor.

What is shocking are the northernmost homes, the northernmost outposts, and the northernmost post office in China... Even every household in the Arctic Village has an ink-colored "North" character hanging in front of its door, making tourists wonder. Here I completely feel the fun of finding "North".

Arctic Forest and Sea Guanyin
