Harbin Ice and Snow World Indoor Hall Comprehensive Review
Harbin Ice and Snow World Indoor Hall is the core place for four-season ice and snow experience, including three major areas: Fantasy Ice and Snow Hall, Amusement Hall, Dining Hall and Ice and Snow Show. In the 15,000 square meters of the amusement hall, the IP theme park is combined with the children's amusement industry. 30+ projects such as "Heaven and Earth Spinning" and "Space Shuttle" cover all age groups, and the warm environment solves the winter cold. The dining hall brings together a variety of food such as hot pot and Japanese food, and the supporting cultural and creative store creates a social consumption scene. The 11,300 square meters of ice and snow show venue can accommodate 1,900 people. The "Harbin Ice Show" combines ice acrobatics and dance performed by artists from 12 countries, with shocking audio-visual effects. In summer, there is also a -8℃ Fantasy Ice and Snow Hall open, and the 800 square meters of light and shadow hall combines the Asian winter theme ice sculptures and the underwater kingdom landscape. Cotton clothes are provided free of charge, and southern tourists can experience the fun of ice and snow immersively. The overall one-stop service of amusement, food, and performances is realized, breaking through seasonal restrictions and becoming a new landmark of Harbin's full-time cultural tourism.
It's very beautiful inside. The children like it very much. They run around and play, and sit on all the slides. Remind everyone to wear more pants, otherwise it will be really cold. Summer pants can't resist the cold. Wear more clothes so that you can play for a while

Tigers are solitary animals. Here you can see groups of tigers up close. Because they have been domesticated for a long time, they will actively come forward when they see the sightseeing car. You can also see live poultry being fed. The recovery is not low, but it is worth coming.
The tiger park is not big, and it only took more than an hour to visit. The greatest pleasure is to take a thrilling car to feed the tigers. It costs 100 yuan for five pieces of meat, which feels more expensive than the Daxing Wildlife Park. You must go early to feed the tigers. After 9 o'clock, the tigers will not move, and they are basically fed.

I took the cable car back at the end of the day and waited in line for 10 minutes. It was said that it was too hot during the day, so I chose to take it when leaving Sun Island at night so that I could see the night view on the river.
The B&B has a unique style, is exquisite and warm like home, is clean and hygienic, and the real scene is consistent with the photos. The host is warm and considerate, has a keen eye for details, responds quickly, and has strong problem-solving skills. Summary: A comfortable stay 👍

Because it was the last day of the trip, I consulted the ticket seller there and bought tickets for the Polar Pavilion and the Ocean Pavilion. Because there were some conflicts in the show time, I chose the Polar Pavilion to watch the dolphin show and the beluga show. The dolphin show was about half an hour, and the beluga show was 20 minutes. The dolphin show was very average, and the beluga show was more beautiful and romantic. The walrus show in the Ocean Pavilion was also good. It’s just that the management inside the pavilion is chaotic, the signboards are not clear, and there are no staff to guide. I walked a lot of wrong ways in the pavilion. After watching the show, there was a lot of garbage on the seats, and no one reminded me to take the garbage out.
We went to the Polar Pavilion for a half-day tour. We arrived at around 9am and went straight to the Beluga Pavilion, which started at 10:30am. We arrived an hour earlier so there were more seats, but later there were almost no seats. It was just that the children had to wait for a long time, and they were a little impatient. The whole show lasted about 20 minutes. After the show, we went directly to the Sea Lion Pavilion to watch the 11:30 sea lion show. The Sea Lion Pavilion show is divided into 5 chapters, which lasted more than 30 minutes in total. This show was better. Then we visited some animals outside the venue. Now the single-theater ticket can be entered and exited for a month, otherwise the price of 198 is a bit expensive. The price of Shanghai Songcheng is similar, and there are more performances.

On a sunny day, I stepped into the exotic Volga Manor. It was like a Russian painting, slowly unfolding before my eyes.
Walking along the winding path, it was as if I was in the Russian countryside. The manor has a unique architectural style, with wooden Russian huts scattered in an orderly manner, and the logs on the roof interlaced, showing a quaint charm. Each building is like a carrier of a story, telling the past years.
I came to St. Nicholas Church, its towering onion dome shining in the sun, as if it were God's masterpiece. Walking into the church, the exquisite murals and icons made people awe, and the air was filled with a solemn and peaceful atmosphere.
By the lake of the manor, I saw a group of leisurely swans, they swam gracefully on the water, bowed their heads from time to time to find food, and complemented the surrounding natural scenery. I sat on a bench by the lake, the breeze blew by, bringing coolness and Russian folk songs from afar, the melodious melody made people feel relaxed and happy.
Volga Manor is not only a tourist attraction, but also a habitat for the soul. Here, I felt the fusion of culture and the harmony of nature, as if I had traveled through time and space and came to a poetic place.
Very nice place. The tour guide was very helpful to book games for us. We really enjoyed this place but not the coldness 😂

免费的景点，有时间可以去看看。需要直上楼梯四、五楼，再一层一层往下参观；腿脚不好的人不方便行走。十二月份去的，人有点多，不好拍照。
The prints are stunning, the architecture is beautiful, and Harbin Pharmaceutical Group is amazing. In addition to the works of Chinese artists, there are also works of Russian artists. There are places to stamp, places to drink coffee (American 18 hot dogs 18 yuan). There are also places to buy health works, DIY sachets and prints. The exquisite, gorgeous and elegant interior decoration is integrated with the low consumption of entertainment, which is particularly fun. (Lighters are not allowed inside.)

Harbin's Sun Island is like a bright pearl, inlaid on the bank of the Songhua River. When you first enter the scenic area, a vast expanse of green hits you, as if you are in a natural oxygen bar. The trees are lush and the branches and leaves are flourishing. The sun shines through the gaps and casts mottled light and shadows, bringing a touch of coolness to the summer.
Walking along the winding path, the crisp chirping of birds can be heard, and they jump on the branches, as if welcoming every tourist. Passing through the woods, the eyes suddenly open up, and a wide beach comes into view. The beach is delicate and soft, and children chase and play on it, and laughter echoes in the air. The Songhua River in the distance is sparkling, and several cruise ships slowly pass by, leaving white water marks.
The Snow Expo on Sun Island is even more amazing. Although it is summer, those exquisite snow sculptures are still lifelike, as if telling the charm of ice and snow. Each snow sculpture is carefully carved, whether it is a cute animal or a magnificent building, it shows the infinite charm of ice and snow art.
In Sun Island, I not only felt the tranquility and beauty of nature, but also appreciated the unique charm of ice and snow culture. Here is a paradise where nature and art are perfectly integrated, which makes me linger.
It was very pleasant to play in Sun Island for two days. There are characteristic homestays in the scenic area, and you can try Russian Western food or Northeastern cuisine for meals. Take the sightseeing cable car across the river and overlook the beautiful view of the Songhua River. Visit Squirrel Island and Bear Park during the day, and watch the musical fountain at night. Slow down and feel the nature and childlike fun. The accommodation is convenient, and you don't have to rush the schedule. It is comfortable and enjoyable.

Harbin Central Street is a century-old street full of exotic style. Stepping on the smooth breadstone road, it seems to travel through time and space. On both sides of the street, European-style buildings stand in rows, with Baroque magnificence and Rococo romance, which makes people dazzled. The dome of St. Sophia Church stands quietly in the distance, shining with golden light under the sun, looking solemn and solemn.
Walking through it, the Madiel popsicles on the street are a delicacy that cannot be missed. Take a bite, it is cool and refreshing, with a strong milky aroma. And the red sausage is fragrant but not greasy, and has endless aftertaste. The performances of street artists add a bit of agility to this old street. They either play cheerful music or use brushes to outline street scenes and pedestrians, attracting tourists to stop and watch.
Central Street is not only a street, but also an open-air architectural museum that carries the history and culture of Harbin. Here, every brick and tile tells the story of the past, making people intoxicated and linger.
The streets here are made of stone bricks and bricks, and Russian architecture records a tortuous history of the early twentieth century, which is worth savoring.

There are many projects and the park is quite large. The experience is very good when there are not many people, but there will be a lot of people queuing for popular projects, so you may only be able to play all the projects if you play in the park all day. Some very fun projects are not included in the package and require additional consumption.
The prices in the park are very expensive.
The unique gardens in the garden, "Beiyuan", "Yingyue Garden", "Xiaonan Island" and "Lilac Garden", are all charming and unique. Looking up, you can see towering trees that require five people to hug. In recent years, the ecological environment of the natural protection has been excellent, and flocks of wild mandarin ducks have settled in the park, becoming a unique landscape in Harbin.

The exotic ancient Greek-style architecture is very nice, and the performance is also wonderful. It is worth a visit. The disadvantage is that there is no hot water supply. It is very inconvenient to travel with the elderly. You need to bring enough hot water. Harbin Tourism should improve its service in this regard?
Poseidon Underwater World in Harbin is themed on ancient Greek marine mythology and creates an immersive underwater experience. The giant viewing window displays sharks, rays and other marine life, and the "Deep Sea Romance" performance with sound and light effects is quite impressive. The underwater tunnel is suitable for taking photos, but the dense crowds on holidays affect the experience. The facilities in some areas are slightly old, and the children's interactive area is interesting. The ticket price is slightly high, suitable for family travel, and it is recommended to avoid peak hours.
