Hello,

I am a new member from malaysia and planning to visit Shanghai & Beijing next month. I have 2 extra days, so think of adding in Harbin or Qingtao. Which will you recommend ?

Is next month good to visit ? Without the "ice sculpture" is Harbin it still good for a visit ?

I was in Harbin 2 weeks ago on my way further north, Temperature was around 22-24C. but will be getting cooler. I liked the city, It has a nice pedestrian shopping area which is quite busy in the evening. The architecture is quite different to most Chinese cities having a distinct Russian influence. Snow is already falling further north.

GUEST07486 If you are lucky, there could be some snow in October, which I guess will be interesting for people from Malaysia. Definitely no ice though.

Eh, with only 2 extra days, you'll spend almost half of that in travelling/flights if you go to Harbin or Qingdao. It would be more sensible to pick somewhere more accessible from both cities eg Nanjing, Hangzhou or Suzhou.

Hi All...wonder how is the weather in Harbin right now and rest of November?. Think of going somewhere this month to see some snow.
