The weather was fine that morning ....
We dropped by the Harbin Grand Theatre, snapped a few photos. It's one of the most recognisable building in Harbin. I took at photo of the building, but I was more interested in the small field in front of the theatre, where I could take photos of the snow and the trees ... lol ...
And then went to Volga Manor. I like Volga Manor ... it's so spacious, the architecture was so uniquely Russian ... and I liked the landscaped grounds .... In the cool weather, it was just so pleasant to stroll around the area ....
Next was a stop at the Chinese Baroque Street .... I suppose that if we were to walk along the street, we would better appreciate the architecture and the atmosphere ... but we merely stopped here at the in front of this building and there was .... nothing to see ...
We went to the Central Street next, where it was mandatory to eat an ice-cream ....
It was not as creamy and milky as I had expected; hmn ... not a very memorable taste ...
My friend had told me to bite into the ice-cream and not let it stick to my lips.
From the Central Street, we walked to the Songhua River bridge ... there was a large recreational area where people enjoyed winter activities ....
After that, we went to eat dinner at this buffet bbq restaurant .... I hardly enjoyed the meal ... it was just so tiring to cook the food by myself ....
Finally, we stopped at St. Sophia Cathedral, a church built in 1907, and a landmark of Harbin.
So many pretty young men and women took photos in costumes here ..... it was very amusing to see. We headed back to the hotel after this last stop. I honestly enjoyed the night drive through Harbin back to the hotel at Songbei, since the buildings were light up very beautifully and colourfully lit up!
