How to Plan a Trip to Harbin: Ice Festival and More

If you see your friends in China stocking up on thermal underwear and down jackets at this time of year, they are likely planning a trip to Harbin, China’s top winter destination. Here’s a look at how to plan a trip up north to Harbin to experience its famous ice festival and more.

Freezing Siberian winds mean average winter temperatures in the city rarely get above -10℃, frequently dipping as low as -35℃. While Harbin’s fabulous ice and snow sculptures have rightly made it famous with international visitors, there is plenty more to recommend in the city.

The History

Harbin is the capital of Heilongjiang, China’s northernmost province. Once a small fishing village on the banks of the Songhua River, Harbin exploded into the history books with the construction of the China Eastern Railway at the turn of the 20th century, which extended the Trans-Siberian Railway eastward and brought with it an influx of Russian engineers and workers.

Fast forward two decades to 1917 and Harbin became home to tens of thousands of wealthy Russian émigrés fleeing the October Revolution. These new arrivals shaped the city in their image, not only planning buildings and boulevards in European architectural styles but also launching Russian-language newspapers, theater companies, and churches in a bid to preserve pre-revolutionary Russian imperial culture. You’ll find many European-style buildings in the old part of the city in Daoli District.

Don’t’ Miss: Harbin’s history is perhaps best embodied by Saint Sophia Cathedral, a former Russian Orthodox church built in 1907 in the flamboyant Neo-Byzantine style. Just west of Saint Sophia, the Former Site of the New Jewish Synagogue is a remnant of Harbin’s Jewish history — in the 1920s, up to 20,000 Jews called the city their home. Although it isn’t a synagogue anymore, there is an interesting museum of Jewish history and culture on the site.

Land of Ice and Snow

Summer is a pleasant time to visit Harbin — the weather is warm but not as warm as Beijing or Shanghai, perfect for strolling the streets and enjoying the architecture — but you are missing out if you don’t schedule at least one visit during the winter months.

From December through to February, Harbin transforms into a winter wonderland. Since the 1960s, the Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival has been enchanting visitors with its incredible feats of ice engineering. There are two main exhibition areas: Sun Island, which hosts enormous snow sculptures, and Ice and Snow World, home to ice structures carved out of blocks of ice from the Songhua River. Ice and Snow World is noted for its life-size recreations of iconic buildings from around the world, but these days you’re just as likely to find cartoon characters as you are the Kremlin.

Top Tip: We recommend starting out at Sun Island and then heading to Ice and Snow World as the sun goes down, as the ice sculptures are lit up with dazzling neon lights at night. Many hotels offer shuttle buses to and from the festival sites but to save time (and potentially freezing waits for buses or taxis), it’s better to hire a private driver for the day.

Food for thawing out

You’ll need plenty of food to fuel a visit to Harbin. The city’s multicultural history has left a mark on its cuisine. Eastern European-style smoked garlic sausage is a local specialty, and ice cream from time-honored brand Modern 1906 is a popular treat despite the freezing temperatures — get it from the Modern Hotel on pedestrianized Central Street (Zhongyang Jie).

However, we recommend filling up on dongbei (aka northeastern Chinese) cuisine, which is tailor-made for harsh winters. Think hearty stews packed with meat and potatoes, thick breads and pancakes, and plenty of sauerkraut-like pickled cabbage. One must-try dish is guo bao rou , a sort of dongbei -style sweet and sour pork, featuring thin slices of pork deep-fried in a crunchy cornstarch batter and coated in a sauce made from rice vinegar and sugar. The story goes that a local chef came up with the dish at the beginning of the 20th century to suit the tastes of foreign visitors and he definitely got something right. All the visitors we know who try it, love it.

Heaven for winter sports enthusiasts

With its sub-zero temperatures, it’s no surprise that Harbin is a hub for winter sports. Skating on the frozen Songhua River is surely one of the world’s more memorable skating experiences. As preparations for the Winter Olympics in 2022 continue, we have prepared some exclusive opportunities to learn winter sports with national champions too.

One of our favorites in Harbin is curling, which we can arrange in the stadium there. Harbin is also a popular stop-off for people heading to China’s largest ski resort, Yabuli, around 200km southeast of the city in the Changbai Mountains. A popular training ground for China’s national skiing teams, the resort has runs suitable for skiers of all abilities, as well as plenty of natural powder.

In winter, the weather in Harbin is extremely cold and dry . It is necessary to wear down jackets, woolen pants, snow boots, hats, scarves, gloves, and maybe even a mask to protect your nose.

Wearing glasses is not convenient in winter in Harbin as they fog up when wearing a mask or entering warmer places. It's better to use contact lenses (maybe wear skiing goggles or carry a pre-warmed pair of glasses in your coat).

You can buy all the winter clothes you need in stores and supermarkets in Harbin at reasonable prices (from around 1,000 CNY for a full outfit). For your safety, please choose dark or bright clothes. Walking around in white in the white snow-covered city, especially in ski resorts, might cause accidental collisions as it is not easy for others to see you.

Body warming packs have been getting quite popular in recent years. They keep specific parts of the body, such as knees, midriff, or feet warm, and the heat lasts about 10–12 hours. Do not stick them on your skin directly as they can cause burns.

• Tips for Packing : When using electronic products outdoors, such as cameras and mobile phones, please try to keep them from the cold, and put them in an inside pocket or pouch inside your coat whenever you finish using them to keep the battery working. Taking one or two extra batteries is advisable .

3. Harbin Ice Festival

Though Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival started about 10 years ago, it is already one of the world's four biggest ice and snow festivals, along with the famous ones in Sapporo, Norway, and Quebec. Officially, the opening ceremony of the festival is on January 5 and the festival lasts till late February . However, exhibits opens from December 17th, 2023.

The highlights of the festival include:

• Ice Lantern Festival held in Zhaolin Park
• Snow sculptures in the Sun Island Scenic Area
• Ice sculptures at the Harbin Ice and Snow World

You can enjoy the beautiful snow scenery and sculptures and participate in all sorts of ice activities.

Winter swimming in the Songhua River draws much attention.

Getting to the Festival Venues

Public transportation doesn't go to some attractions and it is not recommended to wait around outdoors in the frozen weather. Also, it is not easy to find an empty taxi in Harbin, especially in wintertime. Taxies don't go by the meter, and drivers charge directly. Most taxies will pick up other people on the way (carpooling), and it's difficult to find a taxi at a remote attraction back to the downtown area.

We recommend our One-Day Ice and Snow Fairyland Tour with a private vehicle, and a personal English-speaking tour guide. We will pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the attractions and back directly, saving your time and avoiding unnecessary trouble. All you need to do is sit back and enjoy the trip!
