There is a small village

Snow begins to fall every October and lasts until April of the following year

Snow season lasts up to 7 months, with an average snow depth of 2 meters!

Soft snowflakes land on the eaves, forming mushroom-like roofs

There is even a peculiar microclimate: 'no three sunny days in summer, snow spreads through the forest in winter'

There is a big city

Here are castles made of ice and palaces built of snow

Under the night sky, they become even more enchanting with various colorful lights

You can also join the ice and snow world garden party

Parade floats, singing and dancing, fireworks, ice maze, ice slide, snow tube entertainment

It feels like being invited by the Snow Princess Elsa to her world

There is a special island

Weeping willows along the river are covered with frost flowers, shimmering silver threads in the river breeze

Fir trees, sea of clouds, and lakes form a tender and charming picture

The rising sun breaks through the morning mist, giving rise to a sense of solitude

Even the legendary jade trees and silver flowers in the celestial realm are no match for this

This is Greater Northeast China

If you haven't been to Northeast China, you haven't truly experienced winter?

Perhaps it's your first time stepping into thick but fluffy snow

Perhaps it's your first time witnessing the hexagon shape of snowflakes

Greater Northeast China will overturn your imagination!

Harbin is not only the capital city of Heilongjiang Province

It is also a city of music, a city of ice and snow, a city of history and culture

Start exploring the northern ice city from St. Sophia Cathedral

Pass by Central Street and head to the Songhua River bank

If you want to taste local cuisine

You can find authentic Russian restaurants on Central Street

Enjoy a feast accompanied by melodious saxophone music

Also, don't miss the famous Made'er ice cream

At night, you must not miss the Ice and Snow World

Located on Sun Island in the Songhua River

It is Harbin's super popular winter ice sculpture park

Giant ice sculptures of all shapes and sizes, with rich imagination that is stunning

There are also cartoon character parades, prince and princess ice crystal wedding shows

You can climb the ice castle and experience the super fast slide

There are several big and small slides in the park, the longest of which is a full 300 meters

The skating rink at the Ice and Snow World provides ice skates, ice sleds, etc.

There are also snowmobiles, allowing you to race freely on the ice

There are also snow tubes, ice mazes, etc., suitable for all ages, even kids can play

China Snow Town was originally called 'Shuangfeng Forest Farm'

Xueyun Street is the busiest street in the Snow Town scenic area

The small wooden houses on both sides of the street have been converted into various family inns, restaurants, etc.

On Xueyun Street, you can see dog sleds everywhere

Two huskies or Alaskan malamutes looking cute and silly

Such heavy snow, such accumulation is indeed rare elsewhere

Under the round snow mushrooms is a soft snow blanket

In front of the chubby snow houses are silly snowmen

Mountain forests, pines and cypresses, wooden houses, accumulated snow, and festive red lanterns

At night, Snow Town becomes even more dreamy, white snow cascading down the eaves

As night falls, the light from the hanging lanterns

Looks like red flames clinging to soft cotton candy

As if in a fairy tale world of ice and snow

If you also feel that the New Year atmosphere in the city is fading, come to Snow Town

Everyone gathers together to make dumplings and taste killing-pig dish (a local delicacy)

After eating, we sing around a bonfire

In the quiet night sky, light up brilliant fireworks

This is what New Year is all about!

Rime, commonly known as tree hangings, is the direct sublimation of water vapor in the air at low temperatures

It is a milky white ice crystal deposit frozen directly on objects

It is a very rare natural wonder

'Suddenly like a night of spring breeze blowing, thousands of pear trees bloom'

The glittering and translucent rime on trees

Is also a popular subject for photographers

This wonder is particularly famous on Rime Island

Rime Island is a small island in the Songhua River

It takes about an hour's drive from Jilin city center

You need to take a ferry from the shore to reach the island

Zengtong Village on the island has uniquely shaped trees, a good place to enjoy rime

Between 9 and 11 am is suitable for viewing rime, then return in the afternoon

But if time permits, Xixi suggests staying here for one or two nights

You can shoot sunset in the evening, and get up early the next morning to see sunrise

The rose-colored sky has a romantic vibe
