The Russian-style buildings look particularly charming in the snow. Each building in the manor exudes a strong Russian flavor, making me feel like I'm in a foreign country.

Seeing each other in autumn, the age of autumn leaves is different. I loved the land covered with colorful autumn leaves, the long and deep road, the coolness of the wind, the tight coat, to enjoy the rhythm of the leaves dancing with the hair. This is the first time I have seen Volga Manor. It seems to be the first time I met Harbin's fall, the autumn leaves filled with warm sun, the European-style buildings full of Russian style, and the mirrored manor. It is the original mark I left here!

[Volga Manor] The warm lodge in the three bear parks, together with the Russian aunts, draws a doll as the name suggests, is a place for children and parents to play, in the summer at three bear parks A variety of parent-child activities, and in the winter, we are hiding in the house, visiting a group of craftsmen from other places. Russian doll (Russian ) is a Russian wooden toy. It is usually composed of a plurality of hollow wooden dolls of the same pattern, up to more than ten. It is famous for its bright colors and exquisite patterns. According to legend, the Russian nation has two cousins who are adjacent to each other. The cousin grew up with his childhood. Later, his cousin went away from his hometown. Because he missed his cousin in his hometown, he made wooden dolls every year, and he made dolls bigger every year. A few years later, he returned to his hometown and gave the doll to his cousin, who later imitated the doll. The warmth of the production workshop, the warm-toned furnishings and the elegant and kindly dolls, melted the chill of winter.

Located on the outskirts of Harbin City, Volga Manor covers an area of more than 600,000 square meters. It is a garden whose theme reflects the Russian culture. The Volga Manor has successively rebuilt many old Russian buildings in Harbin, such as the “Mini Ajur” restaurant in the shape of a sailboat on the Sun Island, and the “Fantagia” club. Some others are the Volga Hotel, the Pushkin Salon, and the Banya Bath Center. It showcases the classic Russian architecture.

📍It is located about an hour from Harbin Taiping Airport by car. 🚗 I took a DiDi from the airport to Volga Manor, but if you don’t want to spend much for your transport, you can take a bus from the airport. However, it is more convenient to take a taxi or a DiDi. 🏨 If you are a solo traveler, it is more convenient to book the hotel located in the Volga Manor tourist area. If you don’t want to stay for a night and a day there, worry not because you can leave your luggage in the hotel.#harbin #volgamanor 🥗 There is a Western Restaurant and a Chinese restaurant in the area. There are other restaurants though. I love the Western food and how cozy the restaurant is. When going to the restaurants, please don’t hesitate to open the door and enter because it looks like it is not open from the outside and there are no signs like “We are open” I smelt the food being cooked and opened the door and found out that it was open. 😅 I saw some tourists peeping from the window and checking if the restaurant was open. 🎯 There are a lot of activities like riding the sled, sliding making snow man, and many others. 🧣If you want to wear fashionable winter clothes, worry not as long as you wear and layer two to three thermal clothes. I wore thin thermal clothes and one thick winter jacket. Also, put on winter booths that are made for walking on the snow to avoid being slipped. Wear thick gloves, winter hats, earmuffs, and bring heating packs. 🎯 Plan ahead before going there.
