Fall Viewing Attractions

The Sanjiangkou Scenic Area, located 4 kilometers northeast of Tongjiang City, Heilongjiang Province, faces Russia across the river. It is a national AAA-level scenic area. Due to differences in water quality and flow rates, the confluence of the Songhua and Heilongjiang rivers creates a distinct yellow-black dividing line, creating a spectacular "two-toned water" spectacle. The water, black in the north and yellow in the south, stretches for dozens of miles without merging, earning it the nickname "Northeast Natural Wonder."

After the confluence of the Songhua and Heilongjiang rivers, it becomes the "Huntong River," hence the name "Sanjiangkou Scenic Area."

The scenic area also features the Tongsan Highway Zero Starting Point Monument, a wetland park, and an observation deck. Admission is free, and visitors can enjoy the scenery of the Sino-Russian border river by boat or by strolling along the plank road.

The boat trip offers a clear view of the confluence of the Heilongjiang and Songhua rivers. The two rivers, clearly separated, merge into one, a truly spectacular sight.
The boat ticket is 10 yuan, making it the cheapest of all the boat trips.

Sanjiangkou is located in the center of Ningbo. It is the intersection of Yongjiang River, Yaojiang River and Fenghua River. It has beautiful scenery. You can enjoy the scenery of three rivers and six banks here, and the lights are bright at night. There are attractions such as Old Bund and Tianyi Square around it, which are suitable for walking and taking pictures. There are also Ningbo specialties nearby, such as glutinous rice balls and rice cakes. It is conveniently accessible by subway and is a must-visit place in Ningbo.

Sanjiangkou is the confluence of the Songhua River and the Heilongjiang River. It is located on the China-Russia border, 4 kilometers northeast of Tongjiang City, Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province. After the confluence, it is commonly known as the &quot;Hunhe River&quot;, hence the name &quot;Sanjiangkou&quot;. The Heilongjiang River flows from west to east, and the water is dark green, gentle and open; the Songhua River has more sediment and is yellow. After the yellow Songhua River and the black Heilongjiang River merge, the river water is surging, with distinct water colors, and it flows east for dozens of miles without mixing. It is one of the famous natural wonders in the Northeast.

It is called Sanjiangkou. In fact, this is the confluence of the Heilongjiang River and the Songhua River. This third river is the Tongjiang River formed by the mixture of the two rivers. Because the silt in the Heilongjiang River is black, and the silt in the Songhua River is yellow, they did not mix after they merged, but formed two distinct colored water flows in Tongjiang. What is even more peculiar is that these two water flows have not mixed for ten miles, and they still retain the original two distinct colored water flows. This place has been a battleground for military strategists in history.
Standing on the river bank, the Songhua River is close to our shore, and Russia is on the other side. The two countries are separated by the river. There are cruise projects in the scenic area, and you can take a cruise to tour the entire river.
There is an observation deck in the scenic area, and you can clearly see the two rivers converging and the colors are distinct.
Another landmark in the tourist area is the Tongsan Highway starting point sign. Tongsan Expressway, also known as National Highway 010 (or &quot;National Highway 010 Line&quot;, &quot;G010 Line&quot;), starts in Tongjiang City, Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province, and ends in Sanya City, Hainan Province, with a total length of 5,700 kilometers. It is the longest of the &quot;five vertical and seven horizontal&quot; trunk lines planned and constructed by the state, and the only expressway that runs through China&#39;s coastal areas.
The tourist area is a little far from the city center, and there is a bus to get there. The taxi is estimated to be at most a dozen yuan. It takes about ten minutes to drive by yourself. There is a place to park at the door. The scenic area is relatively large, with small battery cars that can take two people and drive by yourself, 40 yuan for half an hour. The scenic area is free, and currently you need to show two epidemic prevention codes to enter.
Tongjiang City is very small, and it is still worth a visit.
