HARBIN Go by yourself, no need for a tour Ep.1

❄️🇨🇳 Harbin – A city of snowy, freezing cold, yet filled with the warmth of its people. ❄️✨

Our first trip to Harbin, a city in northeastern China known as the "City of Ice and Snow" and one of the coldest cities in China. 🌬️

We traveled from Bangkok to Harbin with Junyao Airlines. We were beyond impressed. The seats were spacious and comfortable, the service was friendly, and the food on board was delicious. Most importantly…the price was incredibly good value. (I promise a detailed review in the next episode. 💺🍱)

After landing 🚖, we called Didi to drop off our luggage at the hotel before beginning our trip with our first landmark, Saint Sophia Cathedral, an ancient Russian-style church that is absolutely stunning. 🕍✨

Even though we arrived late in the evening, the atmosphere was lively because it coincided with the New Year's festival. 🎉

The cathedral was decorated with beautiful, sparkling lights, creating a magnificent atmosphere like a fairytale.

Some groups rented fantasy costumes, had their hair and makeup done, and even had a photographer on hand to take photos and help with poses. 📸

In the center of the square, there was an EDM stage where we could get our feet wet and get warm. The atmosphere was amazing, both fun and exciting. 🎶💃🕺

The temperature that day dropped to -9 degrees Celsius. 🥶 But the warmth from the lights, the people, and the music made our first Harbin trip…full of unforgettable moments. 💖

📌 Harbin is more than just a cold city. It's a city full of charm and memories waiting for everyone to experience.

(Stay tuned for the next episode.)
