Harbin 2 days in harbin?
Posted: Sat September 26, 2009 04:04 AM UTC
I plan to go to Harbin around January 2010.. or maybe first week of February.

Will 2 days be enough in Harbin if I'll just go to the ice festival and Yabuli Ski Resort? I just thought of going to Yabuli because I've never been to any ski resort in my whole life, and I really want to try it.

Also, any new places Harbin worth going to? No temples and no gardens please.

Thanks!

Harbin What to wear and will I see the Ice Scplture
Posted: Tue July 14, 2009 03:31 AM UTC
Hi,

Iam going to harbin this Chrismas, I would like to know what I should wear and buy. I will be going through Dalian before reachin Harbin, can I buy my mitten and snow cap there? I have a high blood presure mum that I will bring along, is there any advice for her? My brother is very sensitive to cold, he gets cold very easily, is there a way to keep him warm. Is cashmere sweeter enought to brace the cold in Harbin? By the way what is the average temperature in Harbin during the winter season? I would also like to know will I be seeing the completed scplture during that Chrismas sesson? Are we given entry to the park to see these items before the offical launching?

Sorry for so many questions.

Hope you all can help answer them.

Thanks

Harbin Urgent responses required!!!!!!!!!!
Posted: Thu January 8, 2009 12:37 AM UTC
Hi!!!

I am leaving for China tomorrow! (so excited!)

If anyone can help me that would be great!

My husband and I will be in Harbin on the 10th, I need to know how easy it is at the airport? The whole time we are in China we will be picked up at all the airports and taken to our hotels by the tour company, but in Harbin we will be on our own.

We will have to make it from the airport to our hotel and then back again.

According to my itinerary, they advise to be at the airport 2 hours before the flight back to Beijing... is this true?

Do they really not queue over there?

Harbin Cost of taxi versus ground tour
Posted: Wed November 26, 2008 05:00 PM UTC
I have a group of 7 people planning to visit Harbin for 3 days in Jan 2009. Anyone has an idea how much transportation will cost for 2 days. We plan to visit major sites like Siberian tiger park, Sun Island & Snow World. One more question is will it be easy to book a cab or 7seat coach in Harbin

Any recommendation of reliable tour agents?

Harbin A few questions about Harbin
Posted: Mon November 24, 2008 04:12 AM UTC
Hi eveyone!

My hubsband and I are going to Harbin in early Jan 09',

To anyone living in Harbin or anyone with experience:

(1) How much (Yuan/RMB) does it cost to catch a cab from Harbin Airport to the Lungmen Modern Plaza Hotel (85 Hongjun Street Nangang District)I think it is about 40km's drive? does anyone know how long the drive takes?

(2) We are going to Harbin Ice & Snow World, Zhaolin Park, Sun Island Park & the Siberian Tiger Park, out of those choices, would you not go to any of them..I heard Zhaolin Park was not worth it?

(3) Do most people speak English in Harbin? will we have any trouble? (I am learning the basics in Chinese)

(4) I know it will be very cold when we go, does it snow that time of year?

Looking forward to your responses,

thanks,

Toni

Harbin How is Harbin current climate?
Posted: Wed November 28, 2007 01:30 AM UTC
Hi. Will be going to Harbin during end of Dec this year. Heard that the climate there this year has became warmer. Would like to ask those who currently live in Harbin what is the climate there now? Has the ice-sculpture things begin preparation already? Heard that these process will not begin if the temperature is not cold enough.

The ice-sculpture is the main thing that attract us to go there. If we are not able to see them during this period (17Dec-25Dec), we may consider to change course.

Thanks.

Heilongjiang Sheng Harbin
Posted: Sat November 17, 2007 04:31 AM UTC
I've signed up for a 8day 7night tour to Harbin wHich also covers Shenzhen, Dalian, Shenyang, Changchun and Jilin. We leave on Dec 24, 2007 and will be in Harbin on Dec 29. Is it true that December is not the best time to go and will all the ice and snow carvings and exhibits be ready by then?

I have been told that cameras, both digital and traditional film, will freeze and I may not be able to get many pictures. Also, where can I get a pair of not-slip boots to walk on the ice and snow and are they expensive. I do not want to spend too much as it will hardly be used again.

Would really appreciate some advice. Thank you in advance.

Harbin Apartments, Renting
Posted: Tue August 21, 2007 03:49 PM UTC
I will be moving to Harbin in a few days, and am looking for apartments. Can anyone suggest good areas, things to ask for or watch out for, and average prices for apartments? Do most furnished apartments come with toilets and washing machines/dish washers? I assume they will be different and to different standards than in the west, but I'm trying to find out what will be somewhat comparable. What about internet connection? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, John

Harbin Travelling to Harbin from 18th feb-24th feb, help needed on what to wear and how's the weather etc..
Posted: Thu January 4, 2007 03:08 PM UTC
Hi all, I will be travelling to Harbin with my dad as on the dates titled, and I seriously need some helpful tips on the type of clothings to wear etc. The personnel at the tour agency told us that it will be around negative 20 degrees during that period, and my dad was rather worried about that.

Is 4 sweaters per person enough to withstand the cold? Would appreciate if anyone can help provide some tips on that.

Thank all in advance... :)

Harbin Ice and Snow Festival closing date for 2007
Posted: Tue December 26, 2006 01:25 AM UTC
Hi there. Can anyone out there help me?

I am planning on going to Harbin for the Ice and Snow Festival in 2007 and need to know the closing date. I realise that it is weather dependent, but I have heard closing dates ranging anywhere from February 5 to March 1.

Also, are there any other things in China that I just HAVE TO see (other than the Great Wall and the Terracotta Warriors)? Likewise, anything that I really should give a BIG MISS! I will be travelling for approximately 5 weeks and may never get the chance to go back again. My plan so far is Beijing, Harbin, Hohhot,X'ian,Tibet,Hong Kong,Shanghai....and whatever comes in between.

Personal favourites or dislikes...any feedback is appreciated - good or bad!!

Thankyou everybody.
