OMG, Harbin Has THIS? How did I not know about it before?

Everybody visits Harbin for the Ice and Snow Festival, but there's also magic in the off-season.
I came here during the summer and found a hidden gem which hardly anyone talks about: Harbin Grand Theater.

📍About Harbin Grand Theater:
Designed by Ma Yansong of MAD Architects, Harbin Grand Theater is a breathtaking architecture masterpiece inspired by the city's snowy landscapes and bending rivers. It hosts world-class performances of classical music, opera, ballet and contemporary plays. It offers a rooftop walkway with panoramic views of the city and the Songhua river for free. The theater is surrounded by protected wetlands that are central to the local wildlife. So if you're also a nature enthusiast, this is the right place for you.

🗺️ Location:
It's located on Cultural Center Island, opposite Sun Island. You can get there by metro from Sun Island (Line 2- Sun Island station) or by taxi. Take into account that you'll have to walk 20 min from Sun Island Station to get there. The walk along the riverside is very pleasant.

TIP: Come at sunset. The night illumination is just gorgeous!

Harbin is more than ice and snow, it's a vibrant metropolis where history, art and natural beauty blend gracefully. 🙌🌲 ⛪ 🎶
