Harbin Sun Island Post Ice Restaurant
By PEA28COCK | 2/27/2006 2:20:00 AM
Harbin Sun Island Post Ice Restaurant (Harbin Taiyang Dao Post Ice Restaurant)had opened to the public on 26, December, 2005. It is the biggest of its kind throughout China. The whole European-style building is purely built by ice. In addition all its tables, tablewares, chairs are made of ice. Amazing! Have a try!

Snow and Ice world
By YCATSOLONG | 2/20/2005 6:33:31 PM
Got to Harbin about 11:30pm from a flight from Kunming. The airport is a fair way out of Harbin. All the taxi drivers hounded us to take a taxi into town. Very expensive trip, better alternative is to take the bus only 20 yuan. Buses wait outside the airport. Found a nice, cheap little place to stay for 40 yuan right near the train station, very warm and comfortable. Next day took a taxi ( 20 yuan ) to the ice and snow festival. Remember, Harbin's temperture can get to - 35 degrees celsius so keep warm! The enterance fee is 80 yuan but I guess if you are in Harbin, you probably should go and see it. There are lots slides to keep people amused and the sculptures are quite impressive, if you have not been to Quebec that is, the wind is very cold though and we got riped off for a pot of tea costing 40 yuan! it was tasty though. Beware, it's quite expensive for anything to purchase including slides and taking photo's of camels, just try and sneak a slide in, it's good fun. Remember, if you are not acustomed to cold weather, be prepared for some. I've been living in Mudanjiang ( about 4 hours train from Harbin ) for 3 months and I'm still not use to it, I am Australian though. Have fun!

Winter trips
By DUNC | 1/2/2005 6:58:53 PM

Harbin..what can I say, First try the river swimming/dip. You don't know anyone but first break the ice and then literally break the ice and in you go! Only 11 hours by fast train from Beijing, full of Russian architecture, visit the pedestrianised Zhongyang Dajie, (Central St)for a site of the flood monument dedicated to those who lost their lives in the 1998 and 1950's floods, see the river, (Song Hua He) at the top end of the street in winter and go skating, or in summer for a row and a swim... 10minutes and 1 or 2 yuan from the main station on bus 103 after getting off at the Russian built Cathedral of St. Sophia. Once you've seen the square and inside to a short history (in Chinese) of the city go to the front of the cathedral and cross the road, turn right walk down the road and turn left at the corner, beside Govt. Square and keep going straight crossing the roads till you hit a cobbled road. Left takes you to the Holiday Inn, right takes you to the river! Enjoy p.s. the bus stop is across the road to the left as you leave the station. Return buses leave from near the flood monument to your right if you face the river opposite the ubiquitous American fast food emporium.
