Harbin

Situated in north eastern China, Harbin is close to Russia, Korea and Inner Mongolia and is an ideal place to be based to explore this fascinating part of the world. Harbin itself has a lot to offer, not least the beautiful Russian architectural influence that adds to the attraction of the city. It is developing very quickly (we now have two Metro lines, with more on the way), but there are still many places to go which are irresistibly Chinese.

Harbin is a tier two city, which means you get all the modern conveniences of a tier one city (good transport connections, plenty of restaurants and bars, good internet speeds, etc) but with the cost of living a fraction of the price of places like Beijing / Shanghai. With accommodation provided, a frugal person can live off 2000RMB per month, and 4000RMB can supply you with a pretty good standard of living, making Harbin a great place to top up your savings.

The city is famous for its standard Mandarin pronunciation and is an excellent place to study Mandarin. As the saying goes, 'If you want to study Chinese language, come to China. If you want to study Mandarin, come to Beijing. If you want to study standard Mandarin, come to Harbin'. Most universities in Harbin have lots of foreign students who come to learn Chinese and take advantage of the cheaper prices.

The year here has four distinct seasons, each with its own particular beauty. Spring brings streets that are lined with fragrant lilac trees and abundant outdoor markets. Summer brings the comfortably hot weather and the umbrellas of the numerous beer gardens dotted across the city (including the world-famous Harbin international beer festival and the accompanying music festival). Autumn brings pleasant temperatures as the tree lined streets burst into colour. And of course, Winter - the thing Harbin is probably most famous for. During January and February we have the spectacular Snow and Ice Festival when the city is transformed into a luminescent showcase of ice art and snow sculptures.
