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.

Jingbo Lake Scenic Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
The world's largest alpine barrier lake formed by lava
Jingpo Lake is an excellent place to enjoy the multicolored mountains in the north. The area is covered with lush vegetation and pleasant scenery, and the hills are filled with multicolored trees, making it hard not to marvel at the magnificence no matter how many beautiful and spectacular sights you have seen.
What I love most is the autumn scenery next to the Diaoshuilou Waterfall. The pavilion, with its distinctive features of southern China, is nestled in the jungle, next to the unrealistically picturesque bridge and flowing water. Looking down, you can see the babbling brook, and the colorful leaves around it set off such scenery, combining the characteristics of both north and south China in a unique charm.
Take a bus to the world's largest alpine barrier lake formed by lava, the national 5A scenic spot - Jingpo Lake. Take a sightseeing bus to visit my lava gas cave collapse waterfall, one of the eight natural wonders of Jingpo Lake - Diaoshuilou Waterfall. Visit the millennia-old river valley formed after a volcanic eruption over ten thousand years ago, watch the diving performance, and freely view the Heilongtan, Guanpu Pavilion, enjoy the Hongluo Women's Cultural Park, Bohai Garden, and more.
▲【Jingpo Lake Travel Guide】
Detailed address: Within the territory of Ning'an City, Mudanjiang, on the main stream of the Mudanjiang River, a tributary of the Songhua River
Transportation strategy: Self-driving
Opening hours: 08:00-17:00, Ticket exchange: 08:00-16:00
Highlights: The world's largest alpine barrier lake, second only to Lake Geneva in Switzerland. The best travel season for Jingpo Lake is from June to September each year. At that time, both sides of the lake are surrounded by beautiful mountains and lush forests, with an excellent ecological environment.
Take a boat to tour the hundred-mile-long lake and enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides. The lake is mostly calm as a mirror, and boating on it is quite poetic.
Watch Mr. Di Huanran cliff diving at Diaoshuilou Waterfall. Mr. Di has persisted for 40 years here. Since 1983, Mr. Di has been diving in Jingpo Lake, twice a day.
Small Tips:
1. The water volume of Diaoshuilou is one of the important indicators that directly affect the viewing experience. If you go after the rain, the effect will be much better than after several sunny days. The Diaoshuilou Waterfall during the dry season feels rather miniature and cannot be considered a grand work. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the weather conditions when you go to play.
2. The entire Jingpo Lake area is very large, and it is almost impossible to finish it in one day. It is most scientific to choose key areas for sightseeing. Personally, I recommend the hundred-mile-long lake and Diaoshuilou Waterfall.

Hengdaohezizhen Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
I am in Hengdaohezi, writing you a love letter from the north
This is the Hengdaohezi version of a winter love song,
where the snow is so clear and translucent it reminds one of Liu Changqing's poem:
"At dusk, the mountains are distant, the air is cold, and the houses are poor."
The snowy mountains in the mist are faintly discernible,
and the town below is dreamlike and fantastical,
the Middle Eastern Railway still stands tall,
and the Russian church tells you of the past.
This beauty that plays hard to get,
makes time even more worthwhile.
Here, I have found the 101st way to enjoy winter,
which is to write you a love letter from the north,
waiting for you to open it...
🚄 High-speed rail transportation
Departing from Harbin, it takes about 1.5h to reach Hengdaohezi East by high-speed train
Recommended departure 07:04→08:35, return 15:59→17:30
At Harbin station, you can also check in at the train station with a Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry vibe
📌 Photo route
Hengdaohezi Train Station→Popular Railway Crossing→Middle Eastern Locomotive Depot→Russian Style Town→Suiman Road Dongshan Street Intersection→Panoramic Hillside→Church of the Virgin's Entry (Middle Eastern Railway Museum)→Oil Painting Village
📷 Photo strategy
1⃣️ Hengdaohezi Train Station P14-16
Not a high-speed train station, but an old one in town, a retro Russian castle-style station, where you can stand at the railing or the exit to get a good shot in minutes.
2⃣️ Popular Railway Crossing P9-P10
Green railings, black tracks, warm yellow houses, and striking signal lights, a Japanese drama scene vibe. The railway is in normal operation, and when a train passes by, a gate will block the way, so predict in advance from which direction the train will come and take a good position to get a photo with the train in the frame. There's a small shop nearby where you can get hot water and warm up.
3⃣️ Middle Eastern Locomotive Depot
The locomotive depot is an annex to the train station
The two streets next to the depot are popular streets
4️⃣ Russian Style Town P6-P7
Rows of yellow low-rise houses, set against distant mountains, have a cinematic feel.
5⃣️ Suiman Road Dongshan Street Intersection P8
Low houses in the background, roads leading to the distance, passers-by and vehicles coming and going, great for street photography.
6️⃣ Panoramic Hillside P1-P5
Walk up the hill from the road next to the locomotive depot, the hill is not high, and you can climb up in minutes, standing on the hillside you can overlook the entire town, the view is very good, a must-visit spot.
7️⃣️ Church of the Virgin's Entry P17
Next to the Forest Sea Snowfield Visitor Center, you can see a green church on the steps, now the Middle Eastern Railway Museum, a railway museum in a century-old church.
8️⃣ Oil Painting Village P18
The Oil Painting Village is right next to the church, with low yellow houses covered in thick white snow, very cute.
👔 Clothing
🔸 Color: Wear solid colors, light blue, light yellow, don't need too high saturation, don't be too fancy.
🔸 Match: You can match a bright/contrasting color hat, scarf, gloves, etc., choose a long scarf for a more elegant photo.
🧣 Keep warm
🔹 Top: Warm patch➕thermal underwear➕sweater/sweatshirt➕down jacket
🔹 Bottom: Super thick fleece-lined pants
🔹 Shoes: Fleece-lined snow boots➕thick socks➕heated insoles (to keep toes from freezing)

Hengdaohezi: Exploring the charm of Northeast winter
🎈Before I came to Hengdaohezi in the Northeast, I knew almost nothing about this small town. However, when I set foot in this snowy area, I discovered the unique charm of the Northeast winter.
🎈First, let me mention the time in Harbin city. At that time, I had never seen such beautiful snow scenery. But when I arrived at Hengdaohezi, I was almost buried alive in a snow pit. This made me realize that the cold in the Northeast is not just cold, but a hellish experience.
🎈However, the beauty here is not just about the scenery. For me, the most important thing is to be able to live well. To cope with the cold, I wrapped myself like a meatball, and even the Northeast tigers gave me a look of disgust. My sisters all put on big cotton pants, warmers, down jackets, hats, gloves, scarves, and I was no exception.
🎈Hengdaohezi is a typical Northeast rural small town, with smoking chimneys and crooked utility poles. The heating here is sometimes on and sometimes off, and it gets completely dark at four o'clock every afternoon. Accompanied by heavy snow, you will find that there really exists a parallel time and space here. Walking in this small town, it seems to have traveled into the long winter of the Northeast.
🎈When touring Hengdaohezi, you can go to see the Gothic tower tip and the brightly colored train station, which is as beautiful as a fairy tale. In addition, at the railway crossing, you can also feel the unique charm under the heavy snow. The Church of the Virgin Mary is the only wooden carved structure church in China, with a typical Russian architectural style. In the museum, you can also learn about the life and culture of the emigrants at that time. In addition, there are more than 200 Russian-style wooden houses in the town, such as yellow houses, green doors, and board camphor trees, which are very beautiful to take pictures at will. The Hengdaohezi locomotive depot retains the historical memory of an era, and those rusty steam locomotive heads witnessed the glorious moment of this small town.
🎈If you are interested in animals, you must not miss the Hengdaohezi Northeast Tiger Forest Park. This is the world's largest artificial breeding base for Northeast tigers, and I am only a layer of wire mesh away from the Northeast big cats. Although Wu Song's experience of fighting tigers made me confused, it did not prevent me from being a cat lover to stroke the cats. Here, the Northeast tigers show their king of beasts, with thick fur, their beauty is fascinating.
🎈Regarding transportation, Hengdaohezi Town is about 278 kilometers away from Harbin, and it takes about 3 hours to drive. It takes about 1.5 hours to take the high-speed rail from Harbin, 88 kilometers away from Snow Town, and 61 kilometers away from Yabuli Town. If it is during the holiday period, it is recommended to drive there, because you can't get a car at all after getting off the car. Usually, taking the D-train back and forth is the most convenient choice.
🎈Regarding the itinerary, after you arrive at Hengdaohezi, you can go to visit the Northeast Tiger Forest Park first, but be careful not to stay outdoors for too long to avoid losing temperature. After eating tendon cakes at noon, you can visit the Russian-style small town, train station, town streets, railway crossings, and locomotive depots along the way.
🎈Finally, there are some precautions to remind everyone. First, it is recommended to find an indoor place to warm up every 1 hour to avoid getting cold. Secondly, because the snow is very thick, you must wear non-slip shoes, avoid going to places without footprints, and easily sink into the snow.
🎈Hengdaohezi, this small town in the Northeast winter, its beauty and charm far exceed my original imagination. If you want to experience the real Northeast winter, why not come here and feel the tranquility and loneliness in the ice and snow.

Very nice place to see the siberian tigers here in Harbin! They are very dangerous yet beautiful giant cats. You can pay some money for meat and you can feed it to the tigers as well! #happynewyear #siberiantigers

Siberian tiger park!! It is the perfect place to see this beautiful creature. Located in the middle city of Harbin, it is very easy to access. When you arrive, you can choose whether you want to take the closed-windows bus or the open one (with trellis of course), where you can feed the tigers from the inside, which is I would recommend to do! #HalloTrip
