I was born Harbin, and my parents were born Harbin, even my grandma was born Harbin. I almost know everything here. The reason for me to being a tour guide is I want to show my hometown to foreigners as much as I can. Not only for the love of it, but also for the promotion of Harbin to all over the world through the toursbylocals. I have been working as a tour guide for 10 years. I probably understand the western culture and can interpret Chinese culture to you. I am definitely the one you would like to meet. Because I will show how the locals live. I can also be your tour guide in Changchun, the Capital of Jilin province which is the next-door of Heilongjiang province. High-speed rails can take us there just one hour from Harbin. I got my Master Degree of Arts in Heilongjiang University, majoring in English Literature. I got my tour guide license issued by China Travel Bureau.

The Zhongyang Street was originally built in 1898 by Russians and it is a 1, 450-meter-long art gallery of European architectures. The St. Sophia Cathedral, the largest Orthodox Church in far east, also built by Russians in 1907. From the preserved murals, towers and roofs, you could still trace its splendor of the past. In Harbin downtown area, Russian influenced remains are everywhere. Russian sausage, Russian beer, Russian candy, Russian beverage, Russian doll. The Volga Manor is just an imitation of Russian essence. When you sit on the Sun Island and walk on the bank of Songhua River, you may visualize Russians lying on the beach of loosen sands, boating on the glittering river, enjoying the cool breeze blowing their faces, with drinking bottles of beer over one hundred years ago.
Day 1 In the morning, we will visit the Sun Island and the Siberian Tiger Park. In the afternoon, we will go to Harbin Museum, the Center Street, St. Sophia Cathedral and a very impressive local food market. Day 2 In the morning, we will be out of town for the Volga Manor.
