HEILONGJIANG

This northeast province, which derived its name from the
Heilongjiang, the longest river that runs through it, is home to 49
ethnic peoples with original customs and habits, including the Hans,
Manchus, Koreas, Mongols, Tahurs, Sibos, Owenks, Olunchuns and
Hezhes. A distinctive geological landform and peculiar climate
combine to turn Heilongjiang into a fabulous primitive-looking
bio-tourist destination. The ice lantern and ice sculpture shows,
playing up a riot of colors; the Greater and Lesser Hingan
mountains, soaring to unbelievable heights before plunging to a vast
rolling country; the Sanjiang Plain, stretching from horizon to
horizon; the marshlands, cocooned under a blanket of green verdure;
the Heilongjiang River, winding its way along the borderline;
meadowlands, rippling like an ocean dyed the color of emerald, all
these have been reasons why Heilongjiang Province is such a favorite
destination for travelers from around the world. Millions flock to
this land of unique tourist allure and ideal summer resort, to
indulge in more than 30 tourist programs that enable them to sample
the Eurasian architecture of Harbin, the cultural scene of the
Daqing Oilfield, venture beyond the Chinese border, go hunting in
dense woods, or, if it is winter, go skiing or skating in
subfreezing temperatures.
