Although Harbin, the capital city of Northeast China's Heilongjiang province, is now witnessing its coldest season, the city known for its ice and snow has become a hot tourist destination this winter, attracting countless visitors from across the country and abroad.
Tourists are enjoying the scenery, experiencing the local folklore, watching shows and feeling the charm of the colorful wintry feast.
Since Dec 17, the National Immigration Administration has relaxed and optimized the visa-free transit policy, extending the stay of transiting foreigners in Harbin from 72 hours to 10 days.
This policy provides more options for tourism and trade in Harbin, especially during the Asian Winter Games and the city's peak tourism season.
