2025 Snow Town Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

🌨️The beauty of Snow Town is otherworldly, but did you know? I almost cried because of the "pitfalls" in Snow Town! The first time I stepped into this icy fairy tale world, I thought I would be greeted by dreamy snow mushrooms, romantic red lanterns, and delicious stews. But reality hit me like a "snowball to the head." Here is my personal experience—a guide to avoiding pitfalls in Snow Town, learned the hard way! 1️⃣ First pitfall in Snow Town Wearing too little and freezing like an "ice sculpture" As soon as I got off the bus, the cold wind hit me, and I was wide awake. I wore thermal clothes, a down jacket, and thick pants, thinking I could handle Snow Town? Wrong! Standing in the snow for less than 5 minutes, my toes went numb, and I could barely hold the camera! 👉Avoidance TIP: Wear enough! Make sure to wear enough! A windbreaker + thick down jacket + snow boots + warmers are the standard for Snow Town. Don't skimp, it's not expensive, and you'll regret it if you get frostbite! 2️⃣ Second pitfall in dining The village's iron pot stew is too bizarre The first hot pot in Snow Town really opened my eyes: a base fee of over 300 per person, and extra charges for dipping sauces?! I thought, "I'm already here," but the owner added an extra order of lamb that I never ordered when calculating the bill... 👉Avoidance TIP: No matter how tempting the restaurant is, make sure to ask about the prices before entering. I recommend eating at farmhouse restaurants, which are cheaper and have local flavors, offering better value for money! 3️⃣ Third pitfall in accommodation Accommodation in Snow Town costs 2,000 per night, which is normal. Don't have high expectations; 2,000 is just for a 10-square-meter kang. But the key is, some tours claim to stay in Snow Town, charge you, but actually take you to New Snow Town (which is not in the scenic area). Make sure to ask. 4️⃣ Slippery roads Taking a beautiful photo might mean falling eight times The snow mushroom village in dreams is truly beautiful, but finding a spot on the soft snow is a "disaster movie." Wearing non-slip shoes, I had to "split" every two steps, and eventually, I fell into the snow pile, becoming the center of attention... 👉Avoidance TIP: Snow boots must be non-slip, and preferably waterproof. Find a stable place to stand when taking photos; safety is more important than a beautiful photo! 🌟The most worth visiting places in Snow Town 1. Snow mushroom village at night: Red lanterns and white snow, like a fairy tale come true! 2. Ice and snow boardwalk: Quiet and romantic, perfect for couples to walk hand in hand. 3. Horse-drawn sleigh at the village entrance: Experience "snow crossing," and the photos are amazing. Finally, a word of advice: Snow Town is beautiful, but don't blindly yearn for it! Everything here is cold, expensive, and beautiful. Travel is like this snowy land; there are always pitfalls waiting for you, but as long as you stay vigilant and avoid those "tricks," you can have a warm and unforgettable memory in the cold winter.

Sisters, I have checked for you. The legendary Bear Ridge really exists and it is not a hoax. However, traveling to Snow Town is really complicated, and this scenic spot is well-known to have a bad reputation. If you don't make a good plan, you will have to spend 5K while others spend 2K, and in the north where the temperature is minus 20 degrees Celsius, it will be really uncomfortable and cold to be cheated. Today, I want to share a 100% foolproof strategy and itinerary with all the sisters who want to go to Bear Ridge. ️ 【Avoid the following points】 ❌Don't take low-priced tours. Don't even consider a two-day, one-night tour for less than 1,000. Harbin - Snow Town, the journey takes 5 hours by car, the ticket to Snow Town is more than 100 yuan, there are several scenic spots along the way, the tickets are all more than 100 yuan, the accommodation in Snow Town starts from 2K, and 500+ outside, and the food there is also twice as much as in Harbin. Just think about what you can do with a low-priced tour group of more than 200 or 500 yuan. ❌It is not recommended to drive in Snow Town. The journey is long, there are traffic jams, parking is difficult, the queues at the scenic spots along the way are exaggeratedly long, and it is very dangerous to drive in the snow. ❌You can eat in Snow Town, but just eat until you are full. Don’t think about eating gourmet food or be greedy (the key is that the food is not delicious either). It is not expensive to eat simple food. ❌There are several places to see rime on the way, such as the Ice and Snow Corridor and the Ten-Li Picture Gallery. Just choose one (Windmill Snow Mountain is highly recommended). ❌Skiing in Yabuli, the queues are so long that you doubt your life. It is recommended to choose a ski resort with fewer people. [A perfect three-day and two-night trip to Snow Town] Day 1️⃣ Depart from Harbin - Windmill Snow Mountain - Skiing in Yabuli (stay in Yabuli) Day 2️⃣ Play dog ​​sledding in Yabuli - Feed reindeer - Watch the night view in Xuexiang (stay in Xuexiang) Day 3️⃣ Playing in Xuexiang - Checking in the Mushroom House - Finishing the tour in Xuexiang - Return Travel tips ‼ ️ ✅Don’t visit every scenic spot along the way, just choose one of the same type. ✅It is strongly recommended to choose a private tour or a carpooling tour. The drivers of this kind of tour are usually guides. They are very familiar with the tour and will help you buy tickets and queue. You don't have to worry about anything but have fun. It will really make you feel much better in the Northeast where the temperature is more than 10 degrees below zero. ✅It is the peak season in Harbin now, and the surrounding scenic spots are really in chaos. It is not recommended to go to the scenic spots by public transportation, because there is no public transportation. You must choose the driver, guide, and tour group carefully, otherwise you will suffer.

When traveling to Harbin, be sure to avoid these tourist traps! A local Harbin resident has compiled a guide to avoiding tourist traps, which is very helpful for first-time visitors to Harbin. Don't miss it! . ⚠️Notes ❶ Don't book tours on Central Street! There are many people soliciting customers with different prices but the same experience, and there are shopping spots. It is recommended to charter a car to Snow Town to avoid tourist traps. ❷ During the peak tourist season, the subway runs until 22:00. It is recommended to take the subway before 15:00. The Harbin Ice and Snow World officially opens around December 25. ❸ You can buy these warm items after arriving in Harbin: hats, gloves, and snow boots. They are cheap and affordable, and you don't have to take up luggage space. ❹ The overall consumption in Snow Town is generally high, and the cost of activities is more expensive than in Snow Valley or Harbin. ❺ It is strongly recommended that friends from the south who are visiting the northeast for the first time arrange their time and itinerary reasonably. Be sure to plan your route well so you can see more attractions in the same amount of time. ➏ The best time to visit the Harbin Ice and Snow World is from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, when there are fewer people and the ice is bluer! ➐ Popular photo spots in Laodaowai: Jingyu Street and Nanxun Street. The Church of the Virgin Mary and other places are also good photo spots, where you can capture the beautiful scenery of Laodaowai. (Feel free to add more if you've been there) . 【Snow outfit tips】 ✅ It is recommended to wear solid-colored clothes, scarves, hats, gloves, and boots, which are great for adding a romantic winter atmosphere. ✅ Wear sunglasses to avoid the glare of the snow, and dress warmly. . Avoid tourist traps by chartering a car 🚫 Don't trust chartered cars that are very cheap, as you are likely to have an unpleasant travel experience. The price of chartered cars is generally transparent and public in the industry, and prices that are too low are likely to be tourist traps. ⚠️ It is recommended to pay attention to the following points: 1️⃣ Check the hardware Check the condition and age of the vehicle, the functions and safety of the vehicle, whether the insurance is complete, whether there is passenger accident insurance, etc. 2️⃣ Check the driver The driver's overall quality, driving experience, and service attitude determine the enjoyment of the trip. 3️⃣ Check the price Is it all-inclusive? For example, the total cost of the trip is over 5,000, but the other party only charges 3,000 or 4,000, but there may be shopping spots on the itinerary.

1. 👬About how to go to Xuexiang Harbin - Xuexiang 1.🚄Train: Most of them stop in Hailin. There are many trains starting from Harbin and stopping in Hailin every day. The fare for hard seats ranges from 28-50 yuan. 2. Bus: Departing from Mudanjiang: Mudanjiang Passenger Terminal has a special bus to Xuexiang at 14:00 every afternoon, arriving at Xuexiang at about 19:10. Departing from Changting Town: The bus from Changting Forestry Passenger Station to Xuexiang departs at 6:30 and 13:30 every day and takes about 3 hours to arrive. In addition, the special bus from Mudanjiang to Xuexiang will pass through Changting Town at around 4:30 pm. 3.🚗 Charter a car: You can also choose to charter a car to travel at the moment, which is more convenient and the time is at your own discretion. 2. 🎒About preparation before departure If I live in a snowy world, then - please don't ask me if I'm cold, because I wear a lot of clothes! Traveling through Xuexiang, you have to come prepared and have fun. The winter in the Northeast is relatively cold compared to the South, but it is not as cold as imagined. The reason is that winter in the Northeast is relatively dry, so it doesn't feel as cold as the weather forecast says. There is heating indoors, and the temperature is generally above 18 degrees. However, due to the climate characteristics of Northeast China, there are still some things to pay attention to: 🌞Warmth: There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening in northern winter. Please add or remove clothes according to the temperature. Cold-proof clothing, snow shoes, gloves, and hats are necessary. ⭕, Clothes👕: Underwear should be soft, moisture-absorbent, and breathable to help keep the skin dry. If you have jackets and pants, wear them as much as possible. Thermal underwear + sweater + fleece + jacket = the best choice to keep out the cold! If you don’t have a jacket, a windproof, waterproof, warm, soft cotton or down jacket is also a good choice! ⭕. Shoes👢: "Cold starts from under your feet." From the perspective of keeping warm, shoes are the most important. A pair of lightweight, warm shoes with thick, non-slip soles can make you feel warm all over and prevent slipping on icy roads. The best hiking shoes, ⭕, Gloves👏: Choose five-finger cotton gloves or fleece gloves, which are convenient, flexible and warm (don’t wear small leather gloves, they are useless in the Northeast); ⭕, Hat🎩: It is recommended to choose a simple and dense woolen hat. The only requirement is that it can cover the ears! ❤Remarks: You can buy online in your hometown. If it is inconvenient to carry it with you, you can also choose to go to Harbin to buy some high-quality and low-priced products. There are many local textures and varieties to choose from. ⭕. Backpack🎒: It is recommended to use a backpack, a backpack for beginners is fine (it is best not to use a trolley case, if you really don’t have a backpack, then choose a trolley case) ⭕. Snow gloves🏂: The snow is very thick during the crossing. Without snow gloves, shoes and pants will get soaked. If possible, you can prepare a pair of ice grips. ⭕, Skin care🙅: Because the outdoor weather in Northeast China is very dry and heaters are often used indoors for heating, the indoor air humidity is generally around 20%. Therefore, it is very important to prepare oily lipid skin care products with moisturizing effects to prevent dryness and wrinkles. It is best to use skin care products appropriately before going to bed indoors. Putting a glass of water on the bedside table can increase the humidity of the room; some friends from the south , I will have nosebleeds after arriving in the Northeast. This is caused by the rupture of capillaries due to lack of drinking water. It's actually very simple, just drink more water and eat more fruits every day. It is better for ladies to bring a lip balm. The sun and ultraviolet rays in winter in the north are also very powerful, so you must be prepared with sunscreen. ⭕. Eye protection👓: 1. If you are a glasses person, it is best to wear contact lenses. Because the heat from your face will fill your lenses and block your vision. Sunglasses are indispensable. Due to the strong reflection of sunlight on the snow, if you do not wear sunglasses for a long time, you will suffer from snow blindness, which is very harmful to your eyes. It is necessary to wear tinted glasses to protect your eyes and prevent the sun from hurting your eyes. 3. 🔨 Regarding safety issues, should I bring weapons with me to Xuexiang? ⭕The answer is of course not! This is just like there are good people and bad people no matter where they are. This is by no means a geographical issue. Most Northeastern people are good, honest, kind and straightforward and hospitable. There are bad people everywhere, not just in the Northeast. If you are not traveling in a group, you don’t need a black tour guide at all. If you are traveling in a group, please keep your eyes open when choosing a travel route from a travel agency. Do not choose low-priced and cheap groups, and do not be greedy for cheap, etc. If you encounter some problems, you can only bear them yourself. ⭕Do you want to bring weapons? You are here to have fun, not to fight, and there is also a local police station, which is very eye-catching on Xueyun Street. And there are always police patrols, so what are you afraid of? If you haven’t been there yet and start complaining about the high prices, it’s normal for prices in such scenic spots to be slightly more expensive than in other places. It’s not like Xuexiang is the only place in the world where prices are expensive. Considering that it is a popular tourist hotspot, there are also local shops supported by the local tourism bureau and the government, so the price is still acceptable. Moreover, I have never seen the instant noodles that cost 60 yuan, so don’t misunderstand them based on false rumors. ⭕If you have to ask me whether you should bring one just in case, then I can only say that there are public security booths on the road and the local public security bureau, which makes you feel very safe. Avoid unscrupulous travel merchants and don’t go for cheap deals to avoid being deceived. If you want to bring a self-defense weapon, just buy a snow tote locally and make snowballs wherever you go as a self-defense weapon. 😆 Okay, that’s it for today’s little knowledge about Xuexiang. Follow me and I’ll share more little travel knowledge with you! 🙈 If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment below. 😊

In recent years, the news about snow village has a lot of negative comments besides the beauty. Due to there are many negative news, you should still rememeber to find a tour guide before going, I think the beauty of Xuexiang is really worth going. I may be lucky. People are so nice there. A must have experience!😁 #awesomepic

Siberian tiger park!! It is the perfect place to see this beautiful creature. Located in the middle city of Harbin, it is very easy to access. When you arrive, you can choose whether you want to take the closed-windows bus or the open one (with trellis of course), where you can feed the tigers from the inside, which is I would recommend to do! #HalloTrip

As the night falls, the sky is getting darker, and the excitement of Xuexiang is officially coming. As the light is brightened, it has changed another taste. If the snowy town in the daytime is like a fairy tale world, then the snowy countryside at night is a fairytale world with more vivid colors. In a colorful house, it seems that a few dwarfs will come out in the next moment. The soft light warms the winter in the snowy town. There are always surprises in the journey, and there will always be like-minded friends. Thanks to the warm hospitality of my friends, I experienced a journey of peace of mind.

This is a small, snowy mountain village in the "Dahailin Forestry Bureau Shuangfeng Afforestation Area" of Mudanjiang City, on the outskirts of Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, China. Due to the long snowfall period of about 7 months, it is affectionately known as the "China Snow Town" and is now a national tourist destination.

❄️ After hesitating for a long time, I finally decided to go to Xuexiang and back on the same day! So wise! ! ! ! After all, I don’t like night clubbing 💃🏻, nor am I curious about the Yangko parade and the crowds on Xueyun Street. Quietly appreciate the fairy-tale beauty of Snow Town! ❄️ 🕡🚅6:39 Harbin-Yabuli West 🕗🚕The chartered car picked us up smoothly and departed at 8:15 🔹Agree on the price in advance to visit "Datudingzi Mountain" and "Ice and Snow Gallery" 🔹There were too many people at Datudingzi Mountain, and the driver tried his best to persuade us to leave. Thinking that we could avoid the peak hours, we went directly to the Ice and Snow Gallery. It was so beautiful! Thick snow, bright sunshine, and clear skies! You can play for at least 2 hours. 🕐Entering Snow Town at 13:30, it felt like stepping into a fairy tale world, so beautiful and stunning! The area is sparsely populated and there is a lot of smoke rising from the sky. 🕔It gets dark around 17:00, and the beautiful night view comes into view 🕕18:00 Xuexiang-Yabuli West Station, less than 2 hours to arrive, this point is the peak time for entering Xuexiang, and there is no traffic jam in the direction of leaving 🕘🚄Return to Harbin at 21:00. Since we didn’t visit the Datudingzi Mountain, we had plenty of time and the trip was relaxing! ⚠️Reminder 📌🚕I booked a chartered car in advance, but didn't pay a deposit. I agreed to pay the full amount after the service. Although I confirmed the car model in advance - Citroen, the car that came was a taxi... 📌The chartered car I found was not the same one for the outbound and return trips, but the items in the car were all transferred. 📌The driver took us to a place other than the agreed place and encouraged us to play snowmobile. You can choose according to your personal preference. 📌There were many people and cars on Datudingzi Mountain, and the driver tried his best to dissuade us, so we didn't go there in the end 📌The driver on the return trip was chatting on the phone all the way, so annoying! 📌Car speed≈80㎞/H 🎫Datudingzi Mountain 120/person 🎫Ice and Snow Gallery 140/person 🎫 Snow Village 130/person 🚕Round trip by chartered car 500 💌Ice and Snow Gallery/Snow Town, you deserve it💟

Our own dressing review, starting from the inside first. The innermost shirt will be Heattech without fur. Then follow with Heattech or long johns with thick fur. The next layer is a turtleneck with fur inside. The outside should be a windbreaker and snowbreaker. It is waterproof. Mine is down, so it keeps you warm. Next, pants, the innermost, then wear Heattech, followed by long johns with fur. The outermost layer is windbreaker and snowbreaker. This will allow you to sit on the snow or sleep on the snow without the water from the snow seeping into the inner layer. For the hat, it is a bit fashionable. We will wear a fur hat and use the hat from the down jacket over it. Snow gloves, thin inner socks with fur, thick outer socks, snow boots that are non-slip, almost halfway up the shin. And don't forget to put the shoe warmer in the shoes. Put the warmer in the shirt pocket and in the pants pocket. We put it in the gloves. Hands, feet, and head must be warm first. Then go for it.
