Itinerary
1A Stroll Through the "Moscow of the East"
Arrive in Harbin, take a stroll around St. Sophia Cathedral, and wander through the century-old European-style district on Central Street;
Stop by Madi'er for an ice pop in the evening, and enjoy authentic pot-roasted pork and traditional Russian cuisine.
2A Full Day of Exploration in the "Ice City"
Step into the Ice and Snow Wonderland to enjoy both daytime ice sculptures and a dazzling castle of lights all at once, and have a blast on the Snowflake Ferris Wheel and the extra-long ice slide.
3Harbin → Changbai Mountain
In the morning, take the high-speed rail or a private car to Erdao Baihe Town in the Changbai Mountains; the trip takes about 4.5 hours. In the afternoon, relax and unwind in the town to acclimate to the environment.
Soak in the hotel’s outdoor volcanic hot springs under the cover of night, immerse yourself in the extreme cold of -20°C, and experience the ultimate clash of ice and fire.
🌟Tip: Pack your swimsuit in advance; in the mountains during winter, there’s a huge temperature difference between day and night.
4Full-Day In-Depth Tour of the Northern Scenic Area of Mount Changbai
Spend the whole day exploring the northern slope of Mount Changbai, visiting Tianchi Lake, waterfalls, hot spring eggs, and the primeval forest. Admire the dormant volcanic landscape and the ice-covered sea of trees, and fully enjoy the snowy mountain scenery of the North.
⚠️ Notice for International Visitors: Tianchi Lake is highly susceptible to weather conditions; views may be obstructed by heavy fog, so please allow for flexibility in your itinerary.
5Rafting Through the Rime-Covered Demon Realm → Yanji
Wake up early in the morning to head to the "Demon Realm" for a rime-covered rafting trip, where you’ll encounter the misty morning fog rising from the unfrozen river and the jade-like rime-covered trees, and enjoy the magical winter scenery available only during this season.
We arrived in Yanji safely in the evening, headed to Yanbian University to check out the famous “danmu wall” and experience its unique cyberpunk visual spectacle, and sampled authentic Korean-Chinese cuisine in the surrounding area.
6Immersive Korean Ethnic Folk Culture Experience in Yanji
Take a stroll through the Chinese Korean Ethnic Folk Park, try on elegant traditional Korean attire for a photo shoot, stop to enjoy authentic folk performances, and immerse yourself in the rich ethnic culture.
