Harbin has opened a new polar museum. I don’t know the ticket price, but it is next to Sun Island. If you go to Sun Island Scenic Area, you can go Look there, it's the Harbin branch opened by Dalian Sunya Jiji.
Harbin red sausage: Qiulin Company, Lidaosi, and Roulian Red Sausage are the most famous ones. You can buy them at Qiulin Company in Nangang District, but be careful to have a long queue during the holidays. Come and buy.
Beer: Must be Harbin beer!
Pork stewed with vegetables, pork stewed with vermicelli, chicken stewed with mushrooms: if you want a taste, go to a small roadside restaurant; if you want a taste, go to a restaurant with strong Northeastern characteristics,
popsicles : The popsicles at Madiel Hotel are very good! In addition, when looking at the ice lanterns in winter, it feels good to buy an ice cream to eat. Although it is cold, it can increase calories.
Tanghulu: Recommended No. 48, Central Street, Old Beijing. So delicious.
Climate. The temperature in Harbin in winter generally ranges from -20 to -35 degrees Celsius. When asking locals for the temperature. The word "below zero" is usually omitted because it is obviously redundant. I once heard a tourist ask the hotel waiter what the temperature was today, and the waiter replied 11 degrees. The tourist just put on thin clothes and rushed out = =.
Eating. Northeastern cuisine is famous for its cuisine. People often joke: Why do you eat out of a basin? The answer is: The basin is small, and the large pot is used in a vat. = =. For southern tourists. Try not to use your own customary estimates of order quantities. Generally, it is more accurate when ordering by head. 3 dishes for 3 people. 4 dishes for 4 people. I once witnessed two tourists ordering 5 dishes in a hotel without listening to the waiter's advice. Then after the food is served, all that remains is the arduous task of completing the impossible. it's not cool.
Recommended meals include traditional Northeastern cuisine, and you can go to some famous local restaurants. Chicken stewed with mushrooms or something like that. I'm not very familiar with lists like this. You can find it by searching Google for "Northeastern cuisine". I also recommend the Casserole Ju on Central Street, especially the mutton and sauerkraut casserole. For dumplings, we recommend Northeast Dumpling King to try the authentic northern dumplings. Harbin’s hot pot is also quite unique. The ingredients are very different from those in the south, and you can also use it with hot pot soup after eating, which is very delicious. The barbecue in Northeast China is a must-try. I personally think you must try it. The menu is obviously much richer than the menu in Shanghai. There are even roasted sheep testicles. Friends who want to eat them should remember to call them: sheep bombs. This is off topic.
As for Western food, Harbin has always had a similar tradition. Harbin may also be the only Chinese city where it is customary to eat bread for breakfast.
However, because there are more and more Western restaurants across the country and they are getting better and better, eating Western food is no longer a novelty. Recommendation: Huamei Restaurant, located on Central Street. The atmosphere is great. But the service is said to be average. I don't know if it has improved yet. Various forums are recommended. Shrimp altar, meat altar. It's all Russian practice. There were Russian girls performing singing and dancing. It is not ruled out that there is a Russian aunt. it's not cool.
In terms of food, it is recommended to focus on two places. Central Street and Huanghe Road in the Development Zone. It seems that the places where you eat in big cities across the country are called Huanghe Road. Is it because of the color of the Yellow River? = =Huanghe Road is famous for its corruption. it's not cool.
The central area of ??Harbin is slightly larger than Qingdao. It is about the size of three districts in Shanghai. A taxi usually costs around 20 yuan to meet basic needs. The starting price is 8 yuan. There is no time billing. In winter, it is the best choice for tourists to take the bus. If you want to travel to other nearby attractions. Such as Xuexiang and Yabuli. There are multiple trains and buses to choose from from Harbin. Very convenient.
Shopping and work and rest time. Harbin is due to its high latitude. The sun rises and sets at different times than in the south. In summer, the earliest dawn comes at 4 o'clock. In winter, it becomes dark as early as 4 p.m. Therefore, the life clock in Harbin is basically 2 hours ahead. Corresponding stores also close earlier than in the south. Generally, small stores open at 5 o'clock, and large stores open at 8 o'clock. However, it is said that this year it has been postponed to 9 o'clock. Daily necessities can be disposed of in the supermarket. The small supermarket in Harbin is called "Cangmai", and I don't know what it means. As for large supermarkets, there are many chains in Harbin such as Carrefour, Wal-Mart, Pursmart, and Lianhua.
Buy Russian items. You can go to Sino-Russian Street. Be sure not to make a decision right away. Generally the price will vary greatly. Something priced at 60 yuan. It is possible to win it for 10 yuan or even 8 yuan. it's not cool. Bargain hard. No need to show mercy. In fact, it is enough to buy a matryoshka doll for decoration.
Some notes:
1. Try to bring a traditional mechanical camera. Due to climate reasons. Digital camera batteries will not work at low temperatures. it's not cool. So try to carry a traditional camera. If you have a traditional SLR, try to bring a machine with a mechanical shutter. If you must use a digital camera. Please keep warm inside your clothes. Warm it up when not in use. Or prepare two sets of batteries. A set that stays hot. When entering indoors from outdoors, be careful of moisture damage to the lens. Cover with plastic bag if possible. Prevent sudden cooling and sudden heating.
2. In terms of public security, Harbin’s security officers are not as bad as imagined. Most of them are subjective impressions made intentionally or unintentionally by domestic media. It's not cool. Public security is better than expected is a common complaint among non-local college students in Harbin. I have lived in Harbin for nearly 20 years. When I was only 9 years old, I was robbed of 5 yuan by an 11-year-old brother. it's not cool. Of course, it's still good to have a group of people. But just don't worry too much. Of course, compared to Shanghai, Harbin’s public security is still much worse. I feel extremely safe in Shanghai. I am from the Northeast, that criminal would rather choose me? Ha ha.
3. Highly recommended attractions: Ice and Snow World is a must-go. Sofia Church. Central Street. ski.
