Things you must do in Harbin
1. Play in Harbin Ice and Snow World
It is suggested to enter the park at 11 a.m. The Ice and Snow World during the day, although without the colorful lights, is super good-looking when people take photos. There are not many tourists at this time, the temperature is relatively mild, and the sun is strongest around 12 o'clock, you can take pictures of the 'pure white' tone of the ice and snow, the crystal clear ice and snow is particularly beautiful.
Then go to the Ferris wheel, which needs to be booked in advance, you can see the whole view of the Ice and Snow World.
Then go to the big slide, this is a must-check-in item, usually there is a long queue, you also need to make a reservation. It is recommended to buy a sliding pad to avoid sticking to the pants and not being able to slide down.
There are performances every hour after five o'clock in the evening. The DJ leads everyone to bounce with the rabbit, and the interactive experience is full.
If you want to eat delicious food, I think you must try the Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage. When queuing for the big slide, looking at the sausage dishes on the advertisement, I didn't expect Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage to be named after the Ice and Snow World.
2. Saint Sophia Cathedral
This is a popular check-in point. For a child growing up in the south, it is really special to take pictures of the church in the snow!
It's really a rush to take pictures here, and the photos taken are also very exotic.
3. Central Street
Not far from the Saint Sophia Cathedral. You can walk there.
It feels like a European street when taking pictures here.
In addition, of course you have to buy souvenirs when you go out, it's good to buy them here.
Here I found the store of Qiu Lin Li Dao Si again. I have tasted the sausage of Qiu Lin Li Dao Si in the Ice and Snow World before, and the taste is really good! Pure meat, full of meaty texture when you bite down. I particularly like their garlic smoked flavor.
Their family is an old enterprise with a history of 123 years, and it is the aristocrat of sausages. As a souvenir, it is most representative. Everyone says that Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage is a must-eat in Harbin, a must-bring specialty when leaving Harbin. It's also good to give it to others when you go back, you must bring some back home.

DiscoveringNewHorizons_22 The pigeons on Central Street are too fat, aren't they!?
✨Reason for recommendation
Central Street, a century-old architectural pedestrian street, is located in Daoli District, Harbin, and was established in 1898. It is 1450 meters long and covers an area of about 1 square kilometer. The street gathers historical buildings of Western architectural styles such as Renaissance, Baroque, Eclecticism, Art Nouveau, and Classicism.
📍Address: Pigeon gathering place: Intersection of Central Street, Hongzhuan Street, and West Seventh Street
🚙Transportation: Please navigate to Central Street
✨Highlights: ✅
🕊️The pigeons are not afraid of people at all, they will fly to your arm and head✌️, each one is as fat as a 'pigeon pig🐷'! And you can feel the romance of pigeons flying over your head
🍦Try a Madieer popsicle: It is said that if you feel cold in Harbin, just have a Madieer, and you will immediately warm up! This is actually true‼ Although the Madieer stall is always crowded, it is very worth it! The popsicle is five yuan each, and the price has not increased for many years, whether it is coffee or original milk flavor, it is very full!
⛄️Take a photo with the Snow King: Harbin is the headquarters of the 'Ice City', so you must take a photo with the Snow King! There are many different ice sculptures scattered all over Central Street
🥤Have a cup of hot ginger cola: The popular photo spot on Central Street, there are Coca-Cola peripherals and blind box cola inside! Finally, I know why I don't have friends, because I drink Pepsi, 'Drink Coca-Cola and you will have friends'. After shopping, have a super large cup of ginger cola, it is warm and can also warm your hands, I walked the whole journey with this cola bucket
🍽️Try everything about Russian: How can you not try Russian food when you come to Harbin, there are many Russian restaurants on Central Street, the oldest and most well-known ones are Huamei, Madieer, Tados; there are also many small shops selling Russian food, souvenirs and small accessories along the street, the cost performance is not very high
🍡Candied haws that can be anything: I don't know why there are candied haws all over Central Street, in addition to common hawthorn and fruits, there are also spicy strips and vegetables, I only dare to try ordinary fruits, the price is about 10-15
🏠Accommodation recommendation: It is recommended that everyone stay near Central Street, which is the center of the scenic spot, and it is convenient for eating, drinking and playing. There are many people this year, so you need to book more than a week in advance.
✉️Tip:
❣️Carry a power bank and mobile phone warm stickers with you
❣️Prepare tools such as selfie sticks and tripods when taking pictures.
💰Pigeon feed is 10y a small bag
❤️Although Central Street is a pedestrian street, parking is quite friendly, you can put it on West Eighth Street
❤️Sisters who need to buy warm clothes can go to the Liansheng Clothing Plaza near Central Street, where they sell gloves, cotton pants, hats, scarves, etc., which are cheap, warm and not heartache

This trip to Harbin, hurry up and add it to your Bucket List, let's have fun in the snow! 🌨️💥❄️
Harbin is so much fun
When walking, don't put your hands in your pockets, it's easy to slip, try to take small steps forward
On the roads of Harbin, there is always ice that can cause you to slip. Freeing your hands helps maintain balance. The same goes for taking small steps.
Don't casually throw kids into thick snow, the snow can easily pour into the boots
Breathing masks can easily get wet, and when they do, they become very cold, have a few extra for replacement, the same goes for face masks
When feeding deer, stay away from those big antlers, it hurts if you get hit (ps: I was directly knocked down and had a large bruise, I even dropped the basket) Deer are quite gentle, just greedy, anyway, I slapped them a few times!
Warning!!! Don't let kids hold the basket, the deer's antlers may hurt them, it's very dangerous, kids are shorter, the antlers may directly hit their face, eyes and other vulnerable parts.
Candied strawberries are all the same price, it feels like the ones from other places are bigger than those on Central Street, candied haws are the best. Don't buy grilled sausages on Central Street, they are all starch, ignore this if you like it.
It's very difficult to get a taxi on Central Street, even if you offer more money, it's difficult. Take public transportation or walk an extra street to get a taxi.
Harbin barbecue is delicious, we just went to a place with a lot of people nearby, didn't go to any internet-famous shops
Don't buy Russian crafts, they are all made in Yiwu
If you want to buy Russian food, you can look at the varieties and buy them online, it's the same, and it's free shipping, no need to carry it back
You can buy sausages from Harbin Meat Union or Qiulin Lidos, normally there is fat, you can ask for pure lean sausages. Then there is a Russian smoked beef tendon sausage that is quite delicious, like jelly, QQ. But these sausages are not very accustomed to, you can process them according to local tastes
In Harbin, try to use Didi, don't take taxis, the reputation is too bad
Northeastern cuisine may not be to your taste, but the sweet and sour pork from Lao Chu Jia is quite delicious, you can get a number from the mini program, no need to get it on site, can save some time
Frozen pears taste like Fujian's soaked pears, if you are curious, you can buy a small amount to try
Everyone go to the Ice and Snow World early to queue up, it opens at 11 o'clock, normally starts queuing at 10 o'clock. As soon as you enter the door, everyone will run wildly to the attractions, running is very hot, so put on warm baby and heating insoles when you are cold.
The food court in the Ice and Snow World has no place to heat water, everyone bring your own thermos cup! (I don't know if there is a hot water area now) There are a lot of people queuing for food in the food court at meal times, everyone stagger your meals!
Dress a little thinner inside, look better. Otherwise, it's awkward to take off your clothes to eat!
The accommodation conditions in Snow Village are extremely poor, you can imagine it according to the standard of 50 yuan/night in the township.
The prices are not as cheap as imagined, if you want to eat some special meals, it's quite expensive, 250-400 yuan/meal is quite normal

Then go to the Ferris wheel, which needs to be booked in advance, you can see the whole view of the Ice and Snow World.
Then go to the big slide, this is a must-check-in item, usually there is a long queue, you also need to make a reservation. It is recommended to buy a sliding pad to avoid sticking to the pants and not being able to slide down.
There are performances every hour after five o'clock in the evening. The DJ leads everyone to bounce with the rabbit, and the interactive experience is full.
If you want to eat delicious food, I think you must try the Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage. When queuing for the big slide, looking at the sausage dishes on the advertisement, I didn't expect Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage to be named after the Ice and Snow World.
2. Saint Sophia Cathedral
This is a popular check-in point. For a child growing up in the south, it is really special to take pictures of the church in the snow!
It's really a rush to take pictures here, and the photos taken are also very exotic.

Their family is an old enterprise with a history of 123 years, and it is the aristocrat of sausages. As a souvenir, it is most representative. Everyone says that Qiu Lin Li Dao Si sausage is a must-eat in Harbin, a must-bring specialty when leaving Harbin. It's also good to give it to others when you go back, you must bring some back home.

5 things you must know before going to Saint Sophia Cathedral in Harbin, the fourth one is often forgotten by most people
Going to Saint Sophia Cathedral in Harbin, these 5 things must be known.
1. If you want to avoid the crowd, choose to go in the morning, there are people at night and during the day; but the evening is indeed more picturesque.
2. Don't just take pictures of the Saint Sophia Cathedral itself, the Harry Potter-style building on the left and the steel structure are also very picturesque.
3. If you want to take a queen photo or a princess style, you must make an appointment in advance, otherwise it may be too late. Those who shoot on the spot are all made up after making an appointment in advance.
4. The Daoli vegetable market next to it is now full of people. It takes a long time to queue for authentic Harbin snacks. The prices are not cheap, and I personally do not recommend going.
5. Buy cold-proof materials in the underground mall on the right side of the cathedral.

I, this little potato from the south, finally made a brave trip to Harbin~
😂Minus 20 degrees Celsius is really not too sour and cool~
❄️Ice and Snow World really has too many people, if you like to take pictures and play in the snow, and don't want to be crowded, then I suggest choosing this 'Little Disney', inside are colorful and beautifully shaped Russian buildings, you can also play on the big slide and sled, the key is that there are few people here, I would like to call it the 'Northeast Russian Disney'😃

📍Volga Manor
25 kilometers away from Harbin city, on the bank of Ash River, is a park with Russian culture as the theme, more than 30 🌈colorful castles, covered with thick white snow in winter, just like a fairy tale world, 📸taking pictures is too good-looking.
-
🏂Amusement projects
Castle big slide, horse-drawn plow, snow spinning, sled train... It is recommended to go in the morning, go straight to the Petrov Art Palace to play on the big slide, basically no queue.

⛄Snow Village, also known as Shuangfeng Forest Farm❄️
Located in Changting Town, Hailin City, Heilongjiang Province
Snow Village starts to snow from autumn and winter every year
The snow depth reaches 2 meters and the snow period lasts for 7 months
It is known as the area with the largest snowfall in the country
.
👇Transportation, accommodation and tickets
🎫Tickets
Opening hours: The park opens in late November every year
Ticket price: 120💰, parking fee in the scenic area is 10/day
(You can enter the Snow Village unlimited times within two days)
🚗Transportation
It is recommended that everyone carpool and take a bus with regular operating procedures🚃
It's cheap and reliable, there are thousands of roads, safety is the first😂
🏘️Accommodation
It is recommended to stay in a homestay in Snow Village, with 2-4 people on a kang👩❤️👨
There are also standard hotels where you can watch snow mushrooms as soon as you go out
The usual price for a room ranges from one to two hundred to three to four hundred
The price will definitely rise during holidays, this is the same all over the country haha
Accommodation is scarce from December to the Spring Festival, so be sure to book in advance
It is not recommended to find a room on the spot, you may end up on the street
There are a wide variety of free travel and tour groups in Snow Village
Be sure to pay attention when choosing a route
Every year there are many black tour guides in Snow Village
There are also many unlicensed travel agencies, avoid being scammed!
Essential items:
1⃣️ Hand warmers: (Warm foot patches and knee patches can also be prepared, stick them on the phone to prevent the phone from being frozen and shut down)
2⃣️ Gloves🧤: Must be plush, waterproof, and preferably touch screen, you will thank your choice when taking pictures!
3⃣️ Cotton hat + scarf🧣+ mask: The hat can protect the ears, wrap it tightly!
4⃣️ High-top snow boots🥾: Although there are not many styles to buy directly in Harbin, they are very practical, warm and anti-slip☑️
5⃣️ Power bank👝: Because the weather is cold and the phone consumes a lot of power, it is a must
6⃣️ Sunglasses🕶️: The sunlight reflection in the snow is very strong, looking at the snow for a long time can easily cause dizziness, so remember to bring sunglasses.
7⃣️ Thermos🛢️: Mineral water is easy to freeze, so bring a thermos to drink more water, definitely not a glass! ⚠️Emphasize🈲
8⃣️ Face mask, skin care products, lip balm, hand cream (the weather is really dry)
I'm coming to Snow Town in China, a casual shot is a winter wallpaper
Snow Town in China, Heilongjiang Shuangfeng Forest Farm, is located in the southwestern mountainous area of Hailin City. There are seven months of snow accumulation every year, among which December to March of the following year is a good time to visit Snow Town.
Lovely and charming Snow Town in China has a unique flavor, with traditional old fire kang huts, reindeer, horses, and dogs all being good at pulling carts. Due to its geographical location and special climate conditions, it has formed a unique 'snow mushroom' landscape. Under the night, the white snow reflects the colorful lights, like a dreamy fairy tale world. When the dreamy lights and pure white snowscapes shine together, they create a romantic atmosphere.
The thick layer of snow not only isolates the noise, but also adds a sense of tranquility and harmony. The night in Snow Town brings people not only the enjoyment of beauty, but also the most beautiful interpretation of nature and tranquility.
Growing up means to bring fairy tales, one by one, into reality, and see the irreplaceable fairy tale world with your own eyes.
You only live once
Xuexiang is a place you will only visit once in your lifetime.
Geographical location: Xuexiang is located in the Hailin Forest Area of Mudanjiang City, which is quite remote. It takes more than 5 hours to drive from Harbin, so it is recommended to charter a car to get there.
All foreign vehicles cannot enter Xuexiang, you need to change to the shuttle bus inside, the ticket is 120 yuan. The shuttle bus doesn't go far inside, there are several stops, you can get off according to your needs. The whole Xuexiang is actually not big, Xueyun Street is about 1 kilometer, one side is a homestay and the other side is catering hot springs etc. The consumption is definitely more expensive than the urban area or outside the scenic area, after all, they only operate for two or three months.
Accommodation: You need to make an appointment in advance, the price of homestays is high and low, and the fire kang is worth experiencing.
Dreamland: You need to buy a separate ticket to enter, Errenzhuan is also inside, but I personally think it's not good-looking. If you want to take pictures of the mushroom house, you can go to the plank road to take pictures. There is also a viewing platform where you can overlook.
Honestly, it's just like that after going there. The commercialization is too strong, the snow is better than other places, but there is no big surprise. There are still some shops that cheat people, pay attention to identify by yourself, I personally think that it is enough to go once, and I will not go again in the future.
