China's Snow Town

China's Snow TownChina's Snow Town (local name: Zhong Guo Xue Xiang) is actually the nickname of the Shuangfeng Wood Farm in Hailin City. It is about 280 kilometers away from Harbin, the capital city of Heilongjiang Province. Occupying an area of 500 hectares, the whole farm is at an elevation of 1,500 meters. Due to the web-warm air from Sea of Japan and the cold wind from Lake Baikal make a tremendous impact on it, the snow period here lasts more than 7 months and the average snowfall reaches 2 meters.

Though endowed with the most pure snow and beautiful snowscape in the world, the Snow Town was not known to the outside world until it was discovered by some shutterbugs and their photos won the international price in several years ago. Soon after that, some teleplay groups set their bases here and took many famous TV plays and films, such as She's My Ex-wife, Cool In Summer And Warm In Winter, Winter Of The Wacky King, Heilong Town And The Snowstorm, Snow Town, Brave The Journey To The Northeast (Chuang Guandong), The Blowing North Wind (Beifeng Na Ge Chui), The Police Commissioner and The Northern Morning, and so on. They added more mystery to the farm.

China's Snow TownChina's Snow Town is regarded as a dreamlike paradise in winter. Its high mountains, local traditional wooden houses, villages, animals, trees and the sunrise are all greatly different from those in the other world's snowy areas. It is a very famous eco-tourist winter attraction connected to the Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival.
