I found a very bargaining price for a new four star hotel there, it only costs RMB$338 per night (US$45). The hotel started running just one week before I check in, so the decoration & facilitates are all brand-new. When we check the room, the water from bathtube were yellowish, it looked very scary. The waiter said they can fix the water in a few hours. Since it was already 6pm at night, so we did not bother to find another one. That night was New Year Eve, lots of restaurants were closed. Luckily there were one Russian restaurant open. We entered the restaurant, all the decorations are in antique Russian style. It felt like dining at Russia in 1900s. We read the menu and found that the restaurant was opened at 1907, it was one of the first Russian restaurant in Harbin. We ordered their famous dish - the red vegetable soup, the pot beef stew and curry chicken. There are nothing better than having a hot soup in such a cold weather. The meal was very delicious.
After stuffing ourselves with Russian food, we went to the Ice World and saw the ice sculpture. When I entered the Ice World, my sight was captured by the skyline of the shining ice building. When I walked inside, I was surrounded by 4-floor tall gigantic ice structures. All ice structures were lit by colorful neon lights. I felt like entering a fantasy land, surrounded by all "blingy". I also tried out the ice slide, it was so fast, so much fun. Yohoo~~~
The temperature was freezing, my nose kept running. But the water from nose was frozen once it was out from the nose, it was very scary. And I forgot to wear the ski pants out. All my feet got dumb after an hour walk. In order to unfreeze ourselves, we went straight to foot massage after finishing the visit. My feets started to gain back their conscious after soaking in hot water for 5 mins. Damn, it was so cold...
