At 9:30 am, the train arrived precisely at Zhalantun Station. This small city of Suzhou and Hangzhou outside the Great Wall, with its suspension bridge park covered in white snow in winter, is particularly charming.

At 10:00 am, head to Jinlongshan Ski Resort. The snow trails here have undergone professional snow pressing, and the slopes of the beginner trails are gentle, suitable for beginners to experience. The ski resort is equipped with exclusive coaches who will teach you how to put on skis and balance standing posture step by step. You can master basic skiing skills in about an hour. Tired of skiing, the ski resort lounge offers steaming hot milk tea and freshly grilled beef jerky, holding a cup to warm your hands and watching the crowds shuttling on the snow trail, feeling particularly comfortable.

Alternatively, you can also experience snow entertainment projects. Sitting on a snowmobile, under the guidance of professional drivers, rushing across the snow slope, the cold wind howling in my ears, and the snow splashing onto my clothes; Or team up with peers to play snow circles and slide down a 10 meter high snow slope together, with screams and laughter echoing in the ski resort.

At 2:30 pm, walk into Suspension Bridge Park. The century old wooden suspension bridge spans over the frozen Yalu River, and you can hear the faint sound of water flowing under the ice layer. The rime on both sides of the bridge hangs from the branches, and the sunlight refracts it like it is covered with crystals. Every snap is a winter blockbuster. You can stroll along the snow covered trail, feel the tranquility of the forest, and occasionally see squirrels jumping and foraging in the snow.

With laughter and joy, the train moves towards the direction of Genhe.

The fourth day: Genhe Hailar Snow Grassland

At 8:30 in the morning, enjoying breakfast on the train, the scenery outside the window has turned into a primitive forest of the Greater Khingan Range, with patches of larch trees wrapped in white snow, like guards wearing white cotton jackets.

In the morning, you can have fun in the car and enjoy a comfortable leisure time. Chatting, drinking tea, playing cards, sightseeing, taking photos, etc. are all very easy!

In the afternoon, take a car to the Aoluguya tribe, which takes about 40 minutes. On the way, you will pass through the rime corridor, where trees on both sides of the road are covered in ice. When the sun shines, the whole world shines with crystal clear light. The guide will specially stop the car to let you feel the delicate texture of the rime up close - with a light touch, the ice will fall down and turn into water droplets in the palm of your hand.

Enter the Deer Tribe. On the snowy forests of the Greater Khingan Range, dozens of reindeer are bowing their heads and gnawing on moss. Their horns fork like branches, and their furry bodies stand out in the snow. You can take the moss prepared by the staff and slowly approach the reindeer. They will come over to eat gently, their wet noses rubbing against their palms, with a hint of coolness but particularly healing. Ewenki hunters will sit in wooden houses, telling you stories of their dependence on reindeer and demonstrating how to make small baskets from birch bark.

In the evening, returning to the city, you can enjoy lunch in the wooden carved houses of the tribe. The aroma of chicken stewed with mushrooms from the Greater Khingan Mountains in an iron pot is strong, and it is served with freshly baked corn tortillas, warming your stomach.?

Drive to Cold Pole Square. The giant thermometer in the center of the square displays real-time temperature, and you can stand in front of the thermometer to take photos. You can also receive an exclusive "Extreme Cold Challenge Certificate", which is printed with the temperature of the day and becomes a unique travel souvenir.

Day 5: Hailar - The magnificent waves of galloping horses

In the morning, when you wake up, you enjoy the scenery outside the window - at this moment, the train is traveling on the edge of the Hulunbuir grassland, the vast snowfield is boundless, and the Mongolian yurts in the distance are covered with snow, like small mushrooms scattered on a white carpet.

In the morning, after enjoying a delicious breakfast and engaging in activities on the train again, you will meet more friends and relax more comfortably!

At noon, the train will arrive at Hailar Station and then take a ride on the snowy plains to go to the nearby nomadic tribes! Off road vehicles drive on snowy terrain, making a "creaking" sound as their wheels run over the snow. Occasionally, they encounter a group of sheep looking down for food, with herders riding horses following behind, creating a vivid pastoral picture of the snowy plain.

In the afternoon, arrived at the nomadic tribe. A performance of "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" started on time, with hundreds of Mongolian horses rushing from the end of the snowy plain under the drive of shepherds. The snowflakes raised by the hooves were like white mist, and the neighing of the horses echoed through the sky and earth. You could clearly see the horsehair flying in the wind and feel the majestic power of the grassland creatures.

Then walk into the Mongolian yurt. A cow dung fire was burning inside the yurt, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere. The hostess will serve freshly brewed milk tea, with milk skin floating in it, savory and mellow; Also, with a small knife, I cut a piece of meat and dipped it in chive sauce. The meat is tender and not gamey. You can sit on the wool felt and listen to the horsehead fiddle player play 'Ten Thousand Horses Galloping'. The melodious sound of the qin echoes the wind outside the yurt, which is particularly moving.

You can also participate in traditional grassland activities. Playing 'Snow Fighting with Cloth Cages' with herdsmen - throwing wool balls into distant cloth cages, whoever throws them correctly can get homemade milk tofu from the herdsmen; Or play the game of "Selenggu" by throwing sheep kneecaps and experiencing the wisdom of Mongolian life in the game.

In the evening, enjoy dinner inside a Mongolian yurt. In addition to pork belly, there are also traditional delicacies such as stir fried rice and milk skin, with every bite being the taste of the grassland.

Afterwards, drive back to the city center of Hailar. On the way, we will pass by the Moji River. Although the river has frozen over in winter, the curved river channel is still clearly visible on the snowy plain, like a silver ribbon wrapped around the grassland.

After arriving in the city center of Hailar, check into a hotel and have a good sleep, sweeping away the fatigue of this journey!
