At a Glance
The City Before the Snow
After arriving in Harbin, check into a hotel in the city center. In the evening, stroll along Central Street Pedestrian Street, enjoying the European-style architecture and snow scenery. Afterwards, visit St. Sophia Cathedral at night and explore the city's nighttime atmosphere. Dinner can be a taste of Northeastern Chinese cuisine, a relaxing way to end your first day.
“The city is lit with ice lanterns the size of buildings.”
Ice & Snow World
During the day, you can visit the Sun Island Snow Expo or the Harbin Museum to learn about ice and snow culture. In the evening, enter the Harbin Ice and Snow World for an immersive experience of this ice and snow city.
First Tracks
The journey takes about 4 hours in the morning, from Harbin to Yabuli Ski Resort, gradually entering the snow-covered forest along the way. After arrival, check into the ski resort hotel and spend the afternoon familiarizing yourself with the environment and trying out ski equipment.
“By day four you know the mountain.”
Below the Lifts
Spend the whole day at the ski resort, choosing slopes to practice skiing according to your skill level. You can also experience snowmobiling, horse-drawn sleigh rides, and other activities. Return to the hotel in the evening to relax and enjoy the snow scenery and resort atmosphere.
The Return
After breakfast, pack your luggage, check out, and take a bus from Yabuli back to Harbin. Then transfer to the airport to conclude your trip.
