Spent 7 days playing in Harbin! My spending habits have collapsed!

This winter, come with me to explore the magical northern fairyland! Bite into glowing candied hawthorn on the street at -20°C, stay on a warm kang bed and watch mushroom houses in the fairy-tale Snow Town, make a wish at Changbai Mountain, and be a Korean ethnic princess for a day in Yanji~

🧳【Travel Essentials】
