#Zhibei Village Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The small city of Meihekou has something special
For the May Day holiday, I planned to avoid the crowds by visiting the small northeastern city of Meihekou, but it turned out to be packed with people... The photos I could take were limited, but the one-day trip experience was pretty good. If it were less crowded, I'd be willing to come back for another visit. Sharing a simple travel guide overnight!
Recommended must-visit spots:
1 Zhibei Village
It's a village with a northeastern architectural style from the 70s and 80s of the last century. Inside the village, there's a supply and marketing cooperative, museum, pastoral ranch, snack street, intangible cultural heritage street, and some specialty shops (photo studio, post office, etc.), as well as a few chain commercial stores. It's suitable for strolling, taking photos, and eating. The prices for snacks at the entrance and inside the village are quite fair, not exorbitantly priced like other tourist areas. Before coming, I read in a guide that the main entrance's Mei Xiaoye Starry Flower Sea is also worth visiting, but it seems due to the season? The flowers were not blooming yet.
2 Hailong Lake
A 4A scenic spot, it feels like a big park, but it's well-planned and clean, suitable for a lakeside breeze and walking. There are many camping or picnic spots by the lake, and you can also take a boat or speedboat. Due to limited time, I didn't go deep into the area, and I regret not reaching the photogenic camping base.
3 Northeast Never Sleeps City
The place I was most looking forward to, it's really rare to find something like this in the northeast! It's a few streets that combine food and performances. On both sides of the road are snack vendors with a rich variety, and every few dozen meters there are performances: ethnic dances, performance art, bonfire parties, and so many, so many beautiful women in ancient costumes. The performances are at fixed times, starting one after another from around 6 pm. I suggest checking the schedule on the official WeChat account before going.
✔ Key point, all these attractions are free to enter! You'll need to choose whether to pay for certain activities within the scenic area.
OK, the most famous delicacy in Meihe is probably the 'Yinglan Chaozu Guobaorou' (Yinglan Chaozu sweet and sour pork), but because it was so crowded during May Day, I couldn't wait for a table and gave up on it. Instead, I chose the nearby 'Yongshu Laogao Lijia', where the barbecue was okay, but it's just the average level you can find anywhere, and the cold noodles were really disappointing, dammit ( Next time when it's less crowded, I must try the Guobaorou!

Do you remember Zhibei Village in Meihekou?
The photos are from October
The entrance of Zhibei Village really gives off the vibe of a socialist new countryside! The atmosphere and scenery in the village are beautiful~ There are folk commercial streets, yellow mud walls, thatched roofs, log houses, retro street corners, courtyards, flowers and plants, and miniature train tracks, all reminiscent of childhood memories. The place is just as enjoyable and walkable as any paid scenic spot, suitable for kids, the elderly, and the whole family to visit together. You can stroll and eat, escape the hustle and bustle of the city, return to simplicity, and also relive the beautiful memories of childhood.
However, try to avoid holidays, because it gets overcrowded with people, after all, the scenic area is not that large...

When night falls, the big red retro lanterns under the eaves light up, and the whole Zhibei Village is brightly lit, filled with the beautiful and happy romantic winter, this unique snow town style of the Northeast.

The lively northeastern human world is full of northeastern retro style. The lens avoids the bustling crowd and captures a moment of quietness. The objects and snacks sold in the supply and marketing agency are childhood memories
Compared with the crowded people and high prices on the Harbin-Snow Village route, I really recommend going to Jilin Province. I found a small village in the southern line of Jilin-Zhibei Village
The scenery here is comparable to Snow Village, but there are fewer tourists, better photo taking, and the prices are really much cheaper~

First impression of Meihekou in winter: The charm of a small ice and snow city in Jilin!
First impression of Meihekou in winter: The charm of a small ice and snow city in Jilin|||In Jilin, there is a very niche travel destination, which also has great ice and snow resources, but there are not many tourists. This is Meihekou City in Jilin. Meihekou City is located in the middle of the journey from Changchun to Tonghua. It is less than two hours' drive from Changchun and less than three hours' drive from Shenyang. Both Changchun and Shenyang have trains to Meihekou. In recent years, Meihekou has vigorously developed ice and snow tourism. Zhibei Village is a very good snow-watching destination. I was very regretful when I went because the construction of snow sculptures had not yet opened, and it should be open now.
The city of Meihekou is not big, but it is very beautiful in winter. If you don't want to follow the crowd, come here for a turn!
