This is the birthplace of Chinese ice lantern art. Here, you can admire ice sculpture artworks in all kinds of forms, experience making ice lanterns, and watch wonderful ice sculpture performances—very entertaining.

After breakfast, you will visit the [Northeast Tiger Park], known as "China's Tiger Town." This is one of the world's largest breeding and conservation bases for Siberian tigers. Here you can observe the majestic purebred Siberian tigers up close, capture images of wild power and strength, and even take a specially designed sightseeing bus to feed the tigers yourself (at your own expense), experiencing the thrill of coming face to face with a fierce beast under the protection of safety measures. You can also watch adorable tiger cubs in the cub enclosure. In addition, the park is home to other rare animals such as African lions, leopards, and Bengal tigers. Then, head to [Sun Island], known as the "Little Switzerland of the East," to begin a magical ice and snow journey. The "International Snow Sculpture Art Expo" held on Sun Island is a highlight of the Harbin Ice and Snow Festival and a must-visit during winter in Harbin. Here you can admire snow sculpture artworks of various themes, among which Mr. Snowman, Return of Wukong, Legendary Sacred Fire, and Snowy Spring are so lifelike that they inspire admiration. Optional activity (at your own expense): If you are interested in polar animals, you can visit Harbin Polarland, China's first original theme park featuring polar animal entertainment performances and the world's first polar performance amusement park. Here you can watch performances by penguins, sea lions, polar bears, and other polar animals up close—great fun. After the tour, you will visit the world's largest ice and snow theme park—[Ice and Snow World]. This is Harbin's top tourist destination, famous worldwide for its grand and magnificent scale, majestic designs, and supremely beautiful ice and snow landscapes, allowing you to deeply appreciate the charm of ice and snow art. In this ice and snow kingdom meticulously created by the world's top artists, you can not only see distinctive ice sculptures such as the Ice Terracotta Warriors, giant dragons, morning fishing, and the giant diamond, but also enjoy food and drinks in the ice restaurant for a unique experience. In addition, popular winter activities at Ice and Snow World, such as the super-long ice slide, the snowflake Ferris wheel, the mass snow disco, and fireworks shows, let you experience the ultimate joy of Ice and Snow World from multiple angles. Travel Tips 1. Keep warm: Harbin is very cold in winter. Long down jackets, thermal underwear, sweaters, long johns, fleece-lined cotton pants, hats, gloves, scarves, and waterproof, anti-slip boots are essential. 2. Protect your eyes: Sunlight reflected off the snow is quite strong. It is recommended to wear sunglasses for protection. If you are nearsighted, consider switching to contact lenses, because the heat you generate will fog up glasses and obstruct your vision, which is not very safe. 3. Protect electronic devices: In cold weather, electronic devices drain battery faster. It is recommended to carry a portable power bank or keep them in a warmer place. 4. Best times to visit: There are fewer tourists in the morning, so you can explore and take photos freely and enjoy the tranquil ice and snow world; the afternoon has plenty of sunlight and is the best time to admire ice and snow sculptures; in the evening you can enjoy the stunning night views and various brilliant light shows. 5. Be prepared to queue: Popular attractions such as the giant ice slide and the ice and snow Ferris wheel may require long waits due to the large number of participants, especially during peak hours.

In the morning, you will head to 【Hongzhuan Street Morning Market】, known as a "foodie's paradise," to taste the most authentic Northeast snacks and experience the daily life and local customs of residents. Worth trying are the aromatic red sausage, steaming hot Northeast flatbread, fragrant tofu pudding, golden crispy fried cakes, and rich pork stewed with vermicelli. In addition, you can chat with stall owners or locals and enjoy the humor and wit of the people of Northeast China. Afterward, head to 【Bund Snowman Wharf】, known as the "Ice and Snow Dream Fairy Tale Snow Amusement Park," to watch thrilling winter swimming performances. These winter swimming enthusiasts dive into the icy water with graceful postures, their fancy swimming techniques splashing water everywhere and drawing cheers from the audience. The swimmers in the water form a striking contrast with the warmly dressed spectators around them, delivering a powerful visual impact. Next, you will visit Harbin's iconic landmark, 【Saint Sophia Cathedral】. This is the only surviving Byzantine-style Orthodox church in China, with a unique architectural style that blends Chinese and Russian elements — both magnificent and elegantly refined. Its giant green "onion dome" is a major highlight. You can stroll around Saint Sophia Cathedral, admire the grand and solemn architecture, learn about its long history, and capture the most magical and dreamy images. Then, you will continue to 【Central Street】, known as "Asia's No. 1 Street." This is Asia's longest and China's earliest pedestrian street, Harbin's busiest shopping and entertainment center, and the city's calling card. Strolling along it, you can admire diverse architectural styles including Baroque and Renaissance, browse various handicrafts and international brands, watch entertaining street performances, and taste distinctive Sino-Russian fusion cuisine such as Harbin red sausage, Modern ice pops, and sweet and sour pork. Afterward, you may continue to 【Stalin Park】 to admire elegant and rustic Russian-style architecture, view exquisite sculptures such as the Swan Spreading Wings, Three Youths, Sword Dancing, and Diving, and enjoy activities like ice skating, sledding, and snowmobiling. Finally, you will head to 【Laodaowai District】, China's largest "Chinese Baroque" architectural complex. Strolling along this Chinese Baroque-style street, you can admire century-old buildings that blend Eastern and Western architectural styles, browse quaint old shops, and taste authentic Harbin delicacies.

In the morning, you will head to Harbin Taiping International Airport (HRB) and take a flight to Mohe, the northernmost city in China. After arrival, our local driver will meet you at the exit and escort you to begin today's winter exploration journey. Your first stop today is the Birch Forest, a quiet natural birch forest. In the snow, the upright birch trunks are ink-black and the snow is like fluff, making it an excellent scene for photographing northern winter scenery. You can stroll through it and immerse yourself in this tranquil winter beauty. Then, continue to the First Bay of Longjiang. In winter, the Heilongjiang River here forms a magnificent "Ω"-shaped frozen river bend, surrounding the snow-covered "Golden Ring Island." Looking out from a high point, the snowfield, forest, and distant mountains form a pure northern landscape, very impressive. Then, head to Wusuli Shoal (Wusuli Kalun Shoal). This is the geographical northernmost point of Chinese territory. You can stand at the northernmost point of the country marked "53°33′43″N" and overlook the frozen Heilongjiang River, with Russia's vast forests on the opposite bank. Taking a photo here is the most symbolic experience of "reaching China's northernmost point." After the tour, head to Beiji Village to check in and rest.

Beiji Village (under Beiji Town, Mohe City) is located at 53° north latitude, on the banks of the Heilong River, facing Russia across the river. Although the northern lights are extremely rare here and can only be encountered by chance, it is still regarded as China's most symbolic place for "seeking the north" and an area for experiencing far-northern customs. When you come to Beiji Village, these landmark attractions should not be missed Shenzhou Beiji Stone Stele: A huge stone stele standing on the riverbank, inscribed with the words "Shenzhou Beiji," is a classic photo spot marking China's northernmost geographical significance. Behind the stele is the border river, and across the river is Russia. China's Northernmost Post Office: Here you can send a postcard stamped with the "Beiji Village" postmark to your future self or loved ones, conveying a blessing and greeting from China's northernmost point. Northernmost Family: The highest-latitude permanent residence in China. Its traditional Russian-style log architecture and red lanterns present a typical frontier life scene, making it a great place to experience frontier life up close. Northernmost Supply and Marketing Cooperative: A nostalgic shop that preserves the style of the 1970s and 1980s, displaying everyday objects full of vintage flavor, such as old-style thermos bottles and retro posters. Beiji Sandbar: You can stroll along the wooden boardwalk and discover variously shaped "north" character sculptures amid the quiet forest and snowfields, experiencing the artistic conception of "heading all the way north." Reindeer Park: You can get up close to reindeer traditionally herded by China's Ewenki people, take photos with them, and immersively experience the livelihood and culture of the forest peoples of northern China. Northernmost Outpost (viewed from afar): A solemn border defense outpost symbolizing the nation's border and guard, which can be viewed and saluted from a distance. Travel tips 1. Beiji Village is one of the places in China with relatively good hopes for aurora observation, but the northern lights are a rare astronomical phenomenon that requires strong solar activity, an extremely clear night sky, and luck to encounter. It is not a fixed attraction program. 2. For all activities, please comply with border management regulations. Do not enter controlled areas without authorization or take detailed photos of facilities such as outposts. 3. Winter temperatures are extremely low, so please take comprehensive cold-weather precautions and keep electronic devices and cameras warm. After the tour, head to a hotel in Mohe City for overnight rest.

Today, before heading to the airport, you will explore the unique charm of Mohe, a small border town. First, visit the "Mohe Dance Hall," widely known because of the song of the same name. With a nostalgic theme, it recreates the atmosphere of a 1980s dance hall: a spinning disco ball, retro booths, and classic old songs combine to create an immersive space full of a sense of times past. You can sit for a while or take photos here and experience a brief moment of nostalgia. Then, head to Mohe's city landmark—North Star Square. Here you can overlook the panoramic view of Mohe, an ideal place to take in the open scenery of China's northernmost city. If time permits, you can also stroll through Songyuan Park, where ancient pines tower and snow covers the paths. It is quiet and cold, and a leisurely walk allows you to immerse yourself in the purity and tranquility of the northern winter. Warm reminder: For today's itinerary, be sure to allow ample time to get to the airport, as winter road conditions may affect travel time. For outdoor activities, please keep warm and take good care of your electronic devices. After the tour, our driver will escort you to Mohe Gulian Airport (OHE) to catch your flight to the next destination.
