Worth a visit even though its not the official start of the Ice and Snow festival yet. It's indoors and gives a good glimpse of how they can shape ice into structures. Kids and adults have a fun time on the small slides! Was easy booking tickets on Trip app and scanning the QR at the gantry to enter.

The thrill ride was definitely fun! You could personally feed the tigers 🐯. When you climbed onto the feeding area, everyone on the bus gasped and snapped photos non-stop. The meat cost 20 yuan per piece, or 5 yuan for a bucket; you could return any uneaten meat. The only downside was that the park was quite small. It only offered the thrill ride 🚗 feeding area and a walking area to see the captive tigers and bears. Don't rush; a complete loop should take about an hour and fifteen minutes.

A scenic and relaxing ride offering beautiful views of the Songhua River and Harbin city. The cableway is smooth and well-organized, making it enjoyable for both adults and children. A great way to see Harbin from above, especially during winter.

Harbin Polar Park offers a variety of exciting performances, such as the beluga whale show "Heart of the Ocean," where trainers dance with beluga whales to form shapes like the "Heart of the Ocean," and in 2024, it was upgraded to incorporate traditional Chinese elements; the dolphin show combines 3D holographic projection with a surprise appearance by mischievous penguins; the sea lion and walrus stand-up comedy show is performed humorously by the "Northeast Comedy Troupe"; and the water dance show features ballet dancers and mermaids performing in the water, creating a stunning spectacle with lighting effects.

The grandeur and beauty of the buildings are immediately apparent from the fence surrounding the Harbin No. 6 Factory. Entering the first-floor corridor feels like stepping back in time to Europe. Climbing the escalator to the fourth floor is a bit tiring, but still worth the visit.

Volga Manor in winter was absolutely stunning for us southerners. The Russian-style architecture blended perfectly with the snow-covered landscape, making for incredibly photogenic photos. Definitely worth recommending.

In order to enter the place, you have to purchase online via their wechat page; the guard will check your ticket and no counter to buy on the premises itself. The wechat page only accept personal accts so it’s hassle for foreigners like me whose wechat was linked to a bank card. Good thing, this is available here in Trip.com. I immediately buy here while I was waiting outside and in a few minutes, they sent me the Qr code for the entrance. Thank you so much!

Yabuli Ski Resort ⛷️🏂 is actually quite cost-effective outside of peak season because they have promotions! (Peak season is a different story... there's nothing you can do about it, for example, when the Ice and Snow World is open, or during Chinese New Year, that's peak season!) For beginners, I still recommend using skis 🎿 (you'll get the hang of it after a few falls) before trying snowboarding 🏂 (you'll fall and tumble, hahaha). Honestly, snowboarding is much harder than skiing ⛷️!

It's worth a visit. Central Street is beautiful year-round, but crowds definitely dampen the experience. Summer is busiest, winter is least crowded. Winter is also beautiful and worth a visit if you're passing through. The distinctive features are the breadstone pavement, the adjacent Russian-style buildings, and the various lights and illuminations. If you're looking for a less crowded street, I recommend the Chinese Baroque Street in Daowai District (pictured). It has a similar style to Central Street and offers a variety of delicious food. It's also more affordable than Central Street. You can also go to the Xingyi Society for storytelling and crosstalk, where there are fewer crowds.

The scenery is truly spectacular and beautiful, like stepping into an underwater fairytale world. Watching the fish swimming freely in the large aquarium area is truly relaxing, and the storytelling performances are quite entertaining. It's like Harbin Disneyland, and it's every bit as good! Highly recommended!
