    Over 100 years ago, Harbin was a super city in the Far East. Harbin suddenly gained global attention again this year. Harbin was once a famous industrial city and cultural and artistic center. It is awarded by the United Nations as one of the "Six Music Capitals of the World" and the only "Music Capital" in Asia, on par with Vienna. For over 100 years, Harbin has been known as "Paris of the East" and "Moscow of the East". It once gathered nobles from 28 European countries and had consulates from 23 other countries. In the early 20th century, Harbin's economy, culture, industry, commerce and other fields were very developed. In the early 20th century, Harbin's advanced level far surpassed that of Shanghai. Since the beginning of this year, Harbin has once again attracted global attention and may rise again in the future! Realize great rejuvenation!

      Hey, thanks for watching the video.
      Harbin is a music capital? Not quite aware of it. But it is definitely thriving as a tourist destination.

    Thanks for the great video! I was wondering
    1) Where did you find the tour agency you went ahead with, and roughly how much did it cost
    2) Do you think it'll be snowing at the snow town in early-mid December

    Easily to Changbaishan West slope from Changchun follow by North slope then back to Harbin with HSR.. West to North slope can get hotel to grab transport, about 2hr.
