Harbin guide
Harbin: the Ice and Snow Festival
Palaces carved from river ice, a Russian cathedral and the coldest, brightest nights in China.
The Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival, held each winter from about early January, is the city's most cited event: entire buildings carved from blocks of ice cut from the Songhua River and lit from within. Ice and Snow World is best seen at night, and temperatures can fall below minus twenty, so dress for the cold.
The Russian-built St. Sophia Cathedral and the cobbled Central Street recall the city's past as a stop on the Chinese Eastern Railway. In summer, the riverside and Sun Island are pleasant for walking.
