The first ticket we used for night! And the second one we bought and visited in the morning! You should book the Ferris wheel immediately when the slot opens! And go directly there to avoid extreme lines!
So cold and so beautiful! You definitely should visit during the day and at night! Be prepared for the coldness!

Seeing tigers up close was super exciting! We were more than happy to visit this park!
We took the kids to see the tigers by car and even fed them. It cost 20 yuan per piece of meat, and a bucket was 100 yuan. It was definitely worth the experience, especially since the kids had a lot of fun!

Great experience! I went on a day with no queue - hence no waiting time. Experience was great and the view of the river from the cable car was amazing! Highly recommended!
The Songhua River Cableway is a must-take when visiting Harbin. The cabin is clean and stable, and when you reach a high altitude, you can get a panoramic view of the river and clearly see the architectural styles on both sides of the river. Any photo you take is a great one to post on WeChat Moments, and the experience is great.

Was abit confused initially as Polar land and the aquarium next door have two disparate ticketing systems. However, recommended to go for the Polarlaland! The performances are a must-see! Love the beluga and the dolphin performances. The food choices outside the dolphin exhibit are extensive as well - we had a great lunch there. Highly recommended! Especially for families with kids :)
Harbin's must-see Polar Park truly amazed me! Tickets can now be upgraded to a free season pass, giving you unlimited access during the promotional period. The value is incredible! Jellyfish World: This place is the epitome of fantasy! A wide variety of jellyfish, bathed in colorful lights, dance like a celestial being. Find any corner and capture stunning photos—a 100% guaranteed success rate! Don't miss this for your photo-loving friends! Red Panda Pavilion: The newly opened Red Panda Pavilion is a true culinary wonderland! Get up close and personal with these furry creatures; their adorable appearance and every gesture will melt your heart and instantly soothe you. Sea Lion and Walrus Talk Show: The "Polar Comedy Troupe," comprised of three sea lions and two walruses, makes a dazzling debut! Dynamic lighting technology creates a truly immersive experience. This humorous talk show and situation comedy show, infused with Northeastern characteristics, is packed with gags, and the harmonious collaboration between the sea lions, walruses, and caretakers provides endless laughs.

The room stay was great, the breakfast on the 16th floor was delicious and nutritionally balanced, and parking was free! I had a very good experience at this hotel and will definitely come back next time!
A very special scenic spot. It was originally a factory office. You can see that the enterprise was also very prosperous in the past. There is basically no service. You can visit it by yourself. It is suitable for checking in and taking pictures.

Travelled with my mum so we opted to rent the auto-bike once we reached the garden. It was a great choice! Renting was hassle free and saved us a lot of steps - and we managed to explore the entire place in 2+ hours. Meetup at the cable car castle was convenient, and the transport to and fro the city makes the price worthwhile. Package comes with either a burger meal or a free vodka drink! Building there was nice and European-styled; but otherwise no wow-factor for us. Recommended for families or if the city has exhausted its attractions.
Harbin's Volga Manor is a truly photogenic place!
Many classic Russian buildings have been recreated throughout the manor, making a stroll through it feel like stepping into another land. The various reflections add a layered quality to the scenery.
Here, you can not only admire the unique architecture and natural scenery, but also learn about its history and culture.
Although a bit out of the city, it's worth the trip; it's the perfect place to experience exotic charm and take photos!

Before going, I read many reviews, and some people gave this scenic spot a very low rating, but after visiting, we felt it was definitely worth the money. After entering, you take a shuttle bus, and then walk to see the release of the red-crowned cranes. The walk and taking pictures only takes about half an hour, because you're walking through wetlands, which is like a lung cleanse, and you don't feel tired at all. The sight of the red-crowned cranes being released is truly breathtaking and beautiful. We encountered red-crowned cranes walking along the roadside both on the way there and back. I've never seen red-crowned cranes so close before; you can even see the little red fleshy bump on their heads very clearly.
The scenery was stunning, but the facilities were rather basic, especially for those who came specifically for the release of the cranes. However, the cranes mostly just wandered around instead of flying in flocks, leaving many people disappointed.

The transportation to Sun Island is very convenient. You can take the subway directly to the entrance of Sun Island. The Giant Panda Pavilion was newly opened this year. There is a pair of twin giant panda brothers in it. They are very cute. The keepers will observe the two brothers outside. The security is also very responsible. If any tourists have uncivilized behavior, they will stop them immediately. It is great.
There's a subway station at the entrance to Sun Island, making transportation very convenient, and you can also take a ride. There's no entrance fee, and the shuttle bus isn't recommended, as it's not cost-effective. If you're not pressed for time, you can just wander around. The air quality is excellent, and there are various trees and wetlands. The park recently introduced giant pandas, making it a truly worthwhile visit. The park even plays the song "Sun Island," which makes you feel like you've been transported back to the 1980s!

It's worth a visit. Central Street is beautiful year-round, but crowds definitely dampen the experience. Summer is busiest, winter is least crowded. Winter is also beautiful and worth a visit if you're passing through. The distinctive features are the breadstone pavement, the adjacent Russian-style buildings, and the various lights and illuminations.
If you're looking for a less crowded street, I recommend the Chinese Baroque Street in Daowai District (pictured). It has a similar style to Central Street and offers a variety of delicious food. It's also more affordable than Central Street. You can also go to the Xingyi Society for storytelling and crosstalk, where there are fewer crowds.
Known as Asia's "largest" pedestrian street, it retains some early traditional Russian buildings. Various local snacks are spread throughout the street, including Madiel popsicles, Harbin red sausage, various donkey rolls, etc.

Feeding the deer is a great experience. It's quite expensive, costing 10 yuan per bag of deer feed.
Having finally arrived in Yichun, it's worth using your limited time to explore the beautiful sights.
If you're planning to do this, I recommend no more than 1.5 hours. I spent quite a bit more time, and looking back, I felt a bit lost.
It's very convenient to get tickets on Ctrip, but I really don't recommend going there during the festival. There are too many people, the roads are super congested, the deer are super full, and the traffic jam lasts for 4 hours. The police have been adjusting the flow of people. The reception capacity of the scenic area is limited. You can go when it's convenient and there are fewer people. Otherwise, it's too bad. The deer food at the door is 20 yuan, but the deer don't eat it at all. There are so many people chasing a deer to take pictures, and the experience is suddenly reduced.
