This year, the small town of Hengdaohezi in Mudanjiang, Northeast China, is 🔥 Although many netizens claim to have photographed the 'Hokkaido' style But in fact, this is a town that rose with the construction of the railway by the Russians.

Russian Town Address: Pingyuan St, Songbei Qu, Haerbin Shi, Heilongjiang Sheng (On Sun Island) Price: 10 yuan Until the middle of the last century, there were dachas of Russians living in Harbin. Now there are only a dozen houses left, but in general it is interesting to see. Some houses now have shops selling Russian chocolate and alcohol. But mostly the houses are closed, which is a pity. It would be interesting to see what's left inside. We were the only visitors, actually I don't know why, I expected to see more people. It was a big surprise to see the birch trees, it immediately reminded me of Russia. #themepark

#harbintrip Cool place to visit especially if you enjoy to live the culture and heritage of the Soviets before they hand over Harbin to China. I gave it a 4-Star simply because while the place is hip to visit, the surroundings isn't. The walk from the main entrance of the Sun Island Scenic route is ridiculously far and that's gonna be painful if you visit harbin during winter...burrrrrrr!!!!

There is a paid attraction near the river in the Sun Island Scenic Area, called 'Russian Style Town', 58 yuan per ticket, at first I thought it was a bit expensive, looking inside through the gate, it seems to be some characteristic small houses, the sign at the door reads 'Middle East Railway Senior Staff Holiday Area', but I have already come here, with the idea of not missing it if I pass by , spend money to go in and take a look, once inside, I found that there are really not a few places worth taking photos, it's a pity that the clothes I wear don't match, if the little fairies who want to come to take photos, remember to prepare the 'props'.
