China`s Snow Town, locally called Zhongguo Xuexiang in Chinese, is originally built as junior skifield in Shuangfeng Forest Farm, under the jurisdiction of Dahailin Forest Bureau in Mudanjiang city, northeast China`s Heilongjiang province. It is located about 105 kilometers away from Changting town or 280 kilometers from Harbin city. The forest farm sits at an elevation of 1,500 meters above sea level and covers a forest area of 500 hectares. Influenced by the warm current of the Sea of Japan and cold fronts from the Lake Baikal, the snow period here is up to seven months every year and snow thickness may reach around 2 meters. The farm offers a sight of blooming ice sleet slush flower in early winter, milky snow during the depth of winter, and freezing rime fog at thawing or frost free of early spring.
