Harbin trip planner

The influence of neighboring Russia remains visible throughout much of Harbin, with the country's northernmost metropolis possessing an intoxicating eclecticism in its architecture, food, and art. Founded as a camp for Russian railway engineers, the city now features many arresting sites across its historic center, including churches, synagogues, and long-established hotels, with domed towers looming large over public plazas. Tourism in Harbin thrives in the winter months, when the city hosts a large ice sculpture festival along the banks of the river. Harbin is in Heilongjiang.
