Tips before your visit: 🛳️Tickets can be purchased at the ferry company in Blagoveshchensk (Chaikovsky 1). You can buy a round-trip ticket (4,000 rubles) or a one-way ticket (2,000 rubles). They are usually purchased the same day! Arrive at the ferry at least 30 minutes beforehand, as there will be security and customs. 🏠I booked my hotel on trip.com. I couldn't find any on other hotel aggregators, and you can pay with Russian cards. The hotel costs 1,500-2,000 rubles, with breakfast for Chinese tourists. Ours didn't even have tea or coffee, only water. 💸You can buy yuan at Russian banks! We didn't exchange it, so at the Chinese border they charged us a fee (60 yuan) in rubles. 1,000 rubles instead of 660. After security on the Chinese side, there's an exchange office at the port. You can exchange your card there or at the shopping center. 🍜We had lunch at the Druzhba cafe: it was cheap and delicious, but the portions were incredibly huge. Get the small ones! All the cafes are concentrated near the Huafu Shopping Center in the center, where you can also eat at the food court on the top floor. There's a large supermarket in the shopping center. Entertainment options: -night market on the main street (not far from the shopping center), where you can buy souvenirs and clothes, as well as Chinese fast food. -morning market on Xinglin Street. -walk along the embankment, where there's lively dancing in the evening. -shopping. -bathhouses. 📱Our SIM cards have excellent reception on the embankment. We used Wi-Fi at the hotel. WhatsApp requires a VPN, but I think everyone has one now.

#信誉 #heihe #trip #restaurant Xinyu restaurant is a new, excellent restaurant serving traditional Peking duck and Chinese dumplings. The duck is incredibly tasty and filling. My husband and I couldn't finish it all. This dish serves at least four people. Don’t miss the chance to try it. When serving, the duck is cut into 80-120 thin slices, each with a piece of skin. The duck meat and skin are served with Mandarin pancakes, tasseled young onions, and sauces. Julienned cucumbers may also be included. The duck is eaten by wrapping the pieces of meat and skin in pancakes, previously brushed with sauce using an onion brush. 📍信誉饺子馆(爱辉区店) 爱辉区-公60-2号

#Harbin-Mohe-North Pole-Beihong-Heihe 20250728-20250808 Heilongjiang Province (Harbin, Mohe - North Pole Village - Longjiang First Bay - Beihong Village - Heihe) For me, the happiest times in life are when I can eat, drink, and have fun! Thank you, sister, for your support and care. In one trip, I took seven flights to the northernmost point and continued to eat. Hehehe! Visiting China's northernmost point would be most beautiful in winter, but I was worried the cold would overwhelm my body! I decided to go in summer! Surprisingly, I discovered that Heilongjiang in the summer is one of China's summer resorts! Highly recommended! If you have the chance, you should visit! Such simple people and places! I loved everything I saw (the people, the things, the places, the climate, the food). Due to my health, I can't travel by car, so I flew instead of driving around the city, so I took seven flights in one trip! I'm traveling independently. I can speak the language and understand text. I brought extra RMB for emergencies, and I also set up WeChat and WiFi. Once I've made time, I've bought my flight and first night's accommodation, and I'm ready to go. Everything else is up to you. I wish you all the best! Travel enriches life. Mmmm! Everyone is enjoying life! That's wonderful! Hehehe! That's right! The attached photos only show a portion of my 12-day trip. The food was delicious every day! It just didn't look great. Northeast China's scenery and architecture are all unique and beautiful. I think so many elite travelers have already thoroughly introduced them, so there's no need to elaborate on transportation, attractions, and hotel accommodations. Have a happy trip and return safely! Everything is wonderful! It's been 20 days since I returned from my trip, and my heart is still filled with joy! I wish I could share my peace and joy with you!

Heihe is a bustling border port on the map, a small northeastern city that attracts attention in the cultural tourism battle with its cross-border local flavor. But when I actually arrived in Heihe, what truly shocked me was Aihui Town, 30 kilometers from the city center. The history of Heihe begins with Aihui. In 1683, the Qing government established the Heilongjiang General's Office to resist Russian expansion, initially stationed in the old Aihui city. In 1685, it was moved to the newly built Aihui New City on the right bank—today’s Aihui Town. From then on, this place became the military and political center of the Heilongjiang River basin, known as the "Northern Gate Key." Until 1993, Aihui Town was a town under the jurisdiction of Aihui District in Heihe City. To trace the history of Heihe, one’s gaze inevitably falls on Aihui Town. The Aihui History Exhibition Hall here is the only site museum in the country dedicated to comprehensively reflecting the history of territorial changes between China and Russia in the east. It records heroic epics as well as national humiliations. After the Treaty of Nerchinsk, Aihui enjoyed about a century and a half of peace, developing into a prosperous border town with "40,000 residents and 3,000 merchants." But when the calamities of history swept through, Huacheng always instantly became a target. In 1858, the Qing government was forced to sign the Treaty of Aigun, ceding more than 600,000 square kilometers north of the Heilongjiang River; in 1860, the Treaty of Beijing resulted in the loss of 400,000 square kilometers east of the Ussuri River. In 1900, Russia orchestrated the "64 Villages Massacre" east of the river, invaded Aihui city, and the ancient city was burned to the ground, with only the Kuixing Pavilion surviving. After leaving the exhibition hall, I finally understood what the names of the villages under the "Witness Pine" meant. Ordinary people hidden in the sparse historical records had their lives shattered beyond imagination. Right next to the exhibition hall, the Zhiqing Memorial Hall tells the story of another era’s ordinary people’s "prime years." But for parents who experienced it all, they watch in profound silence—on one side, the passionate narrative of "vast world with great achievements," on the other, the real regrets and unwillingness beneath the grand narrative. When the pain of the nation and the sorrow of youth overlap here, no one can remain emotionally unmoved. Returning from Aihui to Heihe city center, the lights around the "Mother" sculpture gradually come on in the sunset. This day was too heavy; both heart and stomach need warm comfort. I chose Amur, a somewhat popular Russian restaurant, and was impressed by its menu and service. It’s probably the most worthwhile place to check in within Heihe city. Actually, Russian cuisine didn’t particularly amaze me, but sometimes what you eat is a mood. Ordinary people just want to drink a bowl of hot soup in peace after walking through the sorrows of history. This is probably the feeling Su Shi expressed when he wrote, "The true flavor of life is simple joy."

Chasing the wind on Heihe's ice plains, newfound passion breaks through the cold Xinsheng Oroqen Township is located in the northwestern section of the Lesser Khingan Mountains, in the northern part of Aihui District, Heihe City, Heilongjiang Province. It is said that in the 22nd year of Emperor Kangxi's reign (1683) of the Qing Dynasty, to resist the Russian invasion, the Qing government established the Butha Eight Banners, specifically managing nomadic hunting tribes such as the Oroqen, Ewenki, and Daur. Xinsheng Oroqen Township is home to over 20 species of wild animals, including foxes, lynx, weasels, otters, gray squirrels, muskrats, badgers, sables, civets, roe deer, wild boars, elk, hares, snowshoe hares, bears, moose, and red deer. There are also approximately 300 types of medicinal herbs. The most astonishing trip is flying for about 6 hours from Guangzhou, where it's nearly 30 degrees Celsius, to Heihe, a border city in our motherland with temperatures of minus 30 degrees Celsius, experiencing a 60-degree temperature swing in one day, all for the love of speed and passion on ice and snow. The 2026 China·Aihui Inaugural Ice and Snow Car Rally has opened. This four-day event features four core categories: Professional Group, Production Car Group, Cross-country Group, and Women's Group. The lineup includes nearly 300 Chinese and international racers from countries such as China, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Russia. First Stop: Chasing the wind on Heihe's ice plains, newfound passion breaks through the cold Here, we experienced 9 hours of being off-grid with no signal. The roar of the engines seemed to break the silence of this icy world, playing a passionate symphony in the extreme cold. Upon arriving at Oroqen Township, the beautiful township head and the warm local welcoming ceremony washed away our fatigue from the journey. The unique cuisine and the secluded European-American architectural style made us fall in love with the place.

Fuyuan: Embracing the First Rays of New Year Sunshine at the Easternmost Point of the Motherland The snow in Zhaji Town had just been thawed into ice pellets by the -30°C winds, and the thermometer at Dongji Square had already turned red. People bundled in thick cotton-padded coats stamped their feet, waiting, when suddenly someone shouted, "It's out!"—The orange-red sun had just licked the ice surface of the Heilongjiang River, its golden light shining on the "Dong" (East) character sculpture, instantly casting long shadows of the crowd. A Hezhe uncle, holding a wine jug, smiled, "This first ray of light, those who have been touched by it will have a smooth year!" The Hardcore New Year's Flavor of Dongji ① The Ritual of Chasing the Light: At three in the morning, tripods formed a small forest in the snow at Dongji Square. Cameras wrapped in thermal covers, lenses pointed at the frozen river, someone rubbed their hands, their breath steaming in the cold air, "Waited two hours, it was worth it!" As the first rays of sunlight climbed over the Sino-Russian border marker, the shutter clicked like popping beans. Someone pulled out their phone to video chat with family, "Look! I wished you a Happy New Year before you!" When the sunlight spilled across the snow, even the frost on their eyelashes sparkled like diamonds. ② Fishing Songs on the Ice Field: The winter fishing scene of the Hezhe people holds the secrets of winter. The steel shovels used for ice-breaking clanged against the river's surface. As soon as the net was pulled out of the water, the sturgeon's large tail slapped against the ice. "This fish can grow to a thousand pounds. Eating it during the New Year brings abundance year after year!" The uncle said, twirling a fish skin painting. The sun pattern embroidered on the sturgeon skin seemed to come alive in the snowlight. Chasing the Sunlight Guide - Must-Visit Spots: At the "Easternmost Point of China" sculpture in Dongji Square, the first rays of sunlight slant across the sculpture, creating a silhouette of the figure against the backdrop of the frozen Heilongjiang River and a Russian village on the opposite bank; near the boundary marker on Heixiazi Island, sunlight shines on the characters for "China," and footprints in the snow stretch into the distance. - Hidden Activities: Learn to peel fish skin from a Hezhe auntie; the sturgeon skin is as soft as silk in your hands. "This craft has been passed down for eight generations; fish skin paintings can ward off the cold."; Take a snowmobile to the island in the middle of the river; the cracks in the ice resemble the veins of the earth. The guide says, "This is the Heilongjiang River breathing."; Go to the early morning market in Zhuaji Town; frozen pears soak in cold water, emitting white steam, and a bite reveals a sweet, icy interior—3 yuan each. - Tips to Avoid: Cover your camera with three layers of thermal insulation (it will shut down instantly at -30°C); choose "Jiangbian Fish Restaurant" for a full fish feast, where sturgeon prepared three ways (braised, sashimi, and fish soup) costs 180 yuan per jin (500g), half the price of the tourist area; wear a long down jacket (knee-length) to watch the sunrise, and make sure your snow boots are non-slip (you can slide up to three meters on the ice). A Culinary Journey on the Icefield A Collision of Freshness and Richness: ① Sturgeon Soup (68 yuan/bowl): The fish meat is stewed until it melts in the soup, sprinkled with cilantro; the hot soup warms you from your stomach to your toes. ② Fried Willow Root Fish (40 yuan/plate): Small fish coated in batter and fried until golden brown; you can even chew the bones. Paired with corn wine, it gets more and more delicious with each bite. Outfit Suggestion: Down jacket + fleece-lined pants + wool socks + Lei Feng hat; only your eyes should be exposed (otherwise your eyelashes will freeze). Transportation Tips By Air: Fly to Fuyuan Dongji Airport, then take a 20-minute taxi ride to the city center; By Car: Navigate to "Dongji Square Parking Lot" (free, 4WD recommended in snowy weather); Best Time: From New Year's Eve to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, sunrise is around 6:30 AM, winter fishing activities are concentrated, fewer people, and the scenery is pristine. As I left, the auntie slipped a bag of fish skin paintings into my bag, saying, "Carry the light of Dongji, winter won't be cold." Crossing the Heilongjiang Bridge, the sun was already high in the sky, the light reflecting off the ice so bright it was blinding. Suddenly, I understood the New Year in Fuyuan—not the warmth of staying up late, but the persistence of chasing the light, the vitality on the ice field, living each day like the first ray of sunshine, passionate and bright. This Spring Festival, come to Fuyuan, let the first ray of sunshine of our motherland illuminate your path for the whole year. What time are you woken up by the sun on New Year's Day where you are?

From authentic Chinese dishes to various international cuisines, every dish leaves a lasting impression. Especially that morning when we enjoyed a hearty breakfast in the restaurant—freshly baked bread, steaming porridge, and a variety of side dishes injected full energy into our trip.
