Where Snow Meets the Sky: China’s Arctic Edge
Tucked away in Mohe City, Heilongjiang Province, lies China’s northernmost treasure: the Wusuli Shoal at Longjiang First Bay. This frosty paradise, bordering Russia’s Heilong River, transforms into a snowy playground every winter. Visitors can glide across ice-covered landscapes on sleds or snowmobiles, while the river—framed by untouched forests—flows silently like a scene from a fantasy novel.
Dubbed the ‘Arctic Village’ by locals, Mohe offers more than just chill vibes. Summer brings midnight sunsets, but winter? Think Frozen meets real life. Pro tip: Capture the aurora-like glow of ice crystals under the northern lights (yes, they’re visible here!).
Why Adventurers Are Flocking Here
Beyond Instagram-worthy views, Mohe’s cross-border cultural vibe adds spice. Local eateries serve hearty stews to combat the cold, and homestays let you cozy up like a true northerner. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or a serenity hunter, this icy gem delivers.
