Getting Around

Icy winter roads barely affect the metro, which runs on time — a worry-free way to travel to and from downtown.

From Harbin you can head toward Snow Town and Snow Valley to experience snow-covered forests; for winter long-distance trips, confirm road conditions and shuttles in advance and stay warm and sure-footed.

In peak winter season city traffic is heavy; crossing the river by metro toward Songbei is easiest. Avoid the closing-time taxi rush, and if driving, slow down on icy roads.
