Hi everyone! Welcome to Harbin—China’s beautiful Ice City! My name is Ruth, and I’ll be your guide as we explore this amazing place together.
Harbin is famous for its stunning winter scenery, Russian-influenced architecture, and of course, the world-famous Ice and Snow Festival. But there’s so much more—local food, history, culture, and stories you won’t find in the guidebooks.
Over the next few hours (or days!), I’ll take you to some of the city’s most iconic spots, from the breathtaking Saint Sophia Cathedral to the bustling Central Street, and even to try Harbin’s unique ice cream—even in the snow!
