As a southerner, Harbin is definitely worth a visit. The ice sculptures are beautiful against the backdrop of lights. The candied haws in the park are delicious, and the temperature is low enough that going there in the summer can make you feel like you're in winter in a split second.
It is a great surprise for people from the south. My family members are afraid of the cold in winter and dare not come. This indoor venue is very good, but you must choose the Dream Venue on the navigation, not the Ice and Snow World.

In the evening, you can take the cable car to see the sunset. You can go up from Central Street and arrive at Sun Island across the river. You can buy a one-way ticket. After getting off the cable car, you can go directly to Sun Island to continue your tour.
The sightseeing cable car lifts off the ground with a gentle jolt, gradually rising higher. The figures below gradually shrink to tiny, moving dots. As the cable car reaches the center of the river, the view suddenly widens, revealing the scenery on both sides. On one side, the modern city stands tall, while on the other, old streets and alleys shaded by green trees, separated by the leisurely flow of the river, a seemingly peaceful harmony. On the riverbank, a man fishes, motionless, like a wooden stake nailed to the shore; morning joggers appear and disappear beneath the shade of the willows. As the cable car approaches the other side, it slowly descends. Details of the ground below become clear: vendors are busy setting up shop, tourists are snapping photos with their phones, and children are running around and playing. The hustle and bustle of life washes over me, instantly dispelling any previous sense of alienation. Standing on the Songhua River bank of Sun Island, I gaze across at the modern cityscape of Harbin. Taking the cable car to Sun Island is truly a wonderful experience!

В рамках нашего путешествия в Харбин посетили Полярный парк на Солнечном острове. Посмотрели шоу белух и шоу дельфинов. Очень красивые и зрелищные представления. Представленные экспозиции животных и рыб и птиц тоже понравились. В целом очень положительные впечатления и незабываемые эмоции. Рекомендую к посещению. На шоу занимайте места заранее, мы были в будний день, но туристов очень много.
This family trip was excellent, and the hotel's service and facilities were excellent. The most important thing was being able to see the polar bears in the room, which the kids loved. There was a meet-and-greet with the penguins at 8:30 AM and a small interactive polar bear class at 9:59 AM. You could even add a 100 RMB gift to the polar bears for Dabao and Benben, and the food was fantastic! 😃 The hotel is right in the Polar Park, and hotel guests get a 10% discount on food and purchases within the park with their pink wristbands. Oh, and there's a freezer in the corner near the front desk door with free popsicles! 😜 The room also provided drawing paper and brushes, so the kids could draw whenever they wanted. What a thoughtful touch! The hotel also offers a one-hour solo night tour of the Polar Museum at 7:30 PM, which is great for parents to relax and unwind. 😋 No need to accompany them! We stayed for two days, and the kids couldn't get enough. I'd definitely stay at this hotel again! Also, the "Heart of the Ocean" beluga whale show at the Polar Museum in the Polar Park is a must-see! It's amazing! Go early to get a seat!

Harbin Pharmaceutical Factory No. 6 is known as the "Louvre of the East", and it really lives up to its reputation. It is very photogenic to check in and take photos. However, there is a 49 yuan fee. It seems that you can see a giant crystal chandelier by going up the exquisite stairs.
The building is magnificent and the quality of the pharmaceutical factory is impressive. It is very classic and luxurious. There are many agricultural products and fruits at affordable prices when you walk to the subway station.

The environment is beautiful, the air is fresh, and the weather is sunny. It's very good for taking pictures. It's so beautiful! It was a sunny day, so we set off immediately! We left the park and returned when the sun went down! The scenery in winter is different from that in autumn and summer.
The big slide was super fun! I went on it twice. The line wasn't too long, only about 20 minutes to get in. Plus, the line was indoors, so it wasn't cold, which was very friendly. The staff were friendly and humorous.

Jingpo Lake is definitely a destination worth visiting, and it's much more than just a lake. As the world's second-largest alpine lava-dammed lake, it boasts spectacular waterfalls, pristine underground forests, rich historical relics of the Bohai Kingdom, and unique seasonal landscapes. It's particularly renowned for its refreshing waterfalls in summer and its breathtaking icefalls in winter.
Diaoshuilou Waterfall: One of China's four largest waterfalls, it boasts an abundant and majestic flow in summer and a spectacular icefall in winter. It's also home to Mr. Di Huanran's cliff diving performances. In summer, admire the waterfalls and see rainbows, while in winter, enjoy icefall diving – the scenery changes with each season.
For families traveling with children or those who enjoy natural scenery and unique experiences, Jingpo Lake is a delightful place to visit year-round. The cool summer air and winter ice and snow activities are truly unforgettable experiences.
For photography enthusiasts, the area offers stunning images year-round. The rainbows over the waterfalls in summer and the rime of the icefalls in winter are both excellent subjects.
The scenic area is quite large, so it's recommended to plan one to two days. If you have more time, a two-day tour is the best option: explore the main scenic area (Diaoshuilou Waterfall and take a boat tour) on the first day, and explore the underground forest in the crater or Jingpo Canyon on the second day. If you only have one day, focus on the main scenic area.

The sightseeing bus is 30 yuan per person. The distances between the various stops in the scenic area are not too far, so it is very cost-effective. There are also many sightseeing buses, so I recommend buying one. The half-lake boat tour takes 1.5 hours.

Sun Island Scenic Area: A National 5A-level scenic spot and Harbin's iconic landmark, it's surrounded by water and boasts breathtaking scenery. Free areas include Sun Stone Square, where you can take photos with the Sun Stone; Squirrel Island, where you can feed the squirrels (please bring your own sunflower seeds); and Swan Lake, where you can watch black swans gracefully swim. The shaded lakeside trees of Shuige Yuntian are a great place to escape the summer heat.
A long-established 5A scenic spot in Harbin. The song "Sun Island" brought this island on the Songhua River to national attention. Besides its natural beauty, the island's main attractions include the Ice and Snow World and Snow Sculpture Park in winter, the Polar Pavilion with its clever beluga whales and penguins, the charming Russian-style town with its numerous Russian-style villas, and the recent addition of the giant panda cheese and sesame. Across the river, Harbin's main city awaits, while cable cars and river boats offer sunset views. Perhaps this is a summer getaway for Harbin residents seeking family getaways. Don't expect too much; just relax and discover what you're looking for. Here, you'll find natural scenery, cultural architecture, and animals—a truly peaceful retreat.

Central Avenue's highlights focus on the blend of centuries of history and diverse experiences:
1. Architectural Art Expo
2. Breadstone Memories
3. A Century on the Tip of Your Tongue
4. New Nightlife Scenes
5. A Blend of History and Modernity
Strolling Central Avenue, Encountering Century-Old Architectural Splendor
Setting foot on Harbin's soil, I was filled with anticipation for the unique charm of this city of ice and snow, and Central Avenue was undoubtedly the centerpiece of my exploration. As I stood at the intersection of this century-old street, gazing up at the quaint wrought iron street sign, an indescribable excitement washed over me, and I couldn't wait to begin this wondrous encounter with history and art.
As soon as I stepped onto Central Avenue, the breadstones beneath my feet caught my eye. Time-honored, each one is round and richly textured. Their close arrangement seems to silently tell a story of the past. Legend has it that these breadstones were laid in 1924, designed and supervised by the Russian engineer Komtrashok. Each one is 18 cm long and 10 cm wide. At the time, a single square stone cost a silver dollar, making it truly a "golden pavement." Walking along it, my steps unconsciously become light and slow, afraid to miss a single detail.
Walking along the street, the first thing that catches your eye is the Chow Tai Seng flagship store. Formerly the "Golobus" Jewish Cinema, it was built in 1919 and is a prominent Renaissance-style building on Central Avenue. This two-story brick-concrete structure features walls constructed of simulated stone. The horizontal lines defined by the grooves give the building's base an exceptionally stable appearance, like an old man, weathered yet unfailingly calm, firmly rooted in the earth. The intricate floral patterns beneath the eaves resemble artistic treasures gifted by time, each carving imbued with the ingenuity and meticulous care of the artisans. At the corner, the main entrance's crowning floral ornamentation stands out, offering a warm welcome. The wrought iron balconies atop them are uniquely shaped and exquisitely crafted, their craftsmanship breathtaking. Imagine the days of yore, when, as night fell, balcony concerts would slowly begin, the melodious music blending with the laughter of the crowds, adding an endless romance and warmth to this ancient street. Although the balcony concerts are now a thing of the past, the beautiful scene feels as if it were right before my eyes, captivating me.
Continuing my stroll, the building housing Matsuura 1918 Western Restaurant instantly caught my eye. It's the former site of the Matsuura Trading Company, built in 1918, and the only remaining Baroque-style building on Central Avenue. Its exterior is visually striking, with exaggerated curves and ornate decorations that perfectly capture the unique charm of Baroque style. The two giant statues of Titans, inspired by ancient Greek mythology, tower majestically at the entrance, as if guarding the building and its turbulent history. Stepping inside, the retro decor evokes a sense of time travel back a century. The exquisite furnishings and soft lighting exude a rich historical atmosphere in every detail. Ordering an authentic Russian meal here, savoring the food while immersing yourself in the stories woven into this building and experiencing the fusion of history and modernity is truly a rare treat.
As we walked, we arrived at the International Trading Company. Built in 1922, it was once a fashionable foreign goods store on Central Street.

By chance, I went to Harbin and saw the Poseidon Underwater World. After visiting it, I found that the park is very large and beautiful. The experience is super good and very interesting. It is suitable for bringing children. There is also a shark hotel with great service!
It was a very good experience. The key is that there are not as many people as Beijing attractions during the peak season. There is basically no queue for many projects. Find a hotel or B&B nearby to stay for one night and watch the show the next day. Dianping directly found the restaurant. It was delicious and not expensive. I will come again next year. I want to play for two days. Don't forget to bring your swimsuit and swimming ring.
