2️⃣ K114 North-South Journey

🔥 Route: Heilongjiang—Hainan

🌟 A train traveling from winter to summer, which will take a ferry during the trip.

Running between the beautiful Ice City of Harbin and the romantic Coconut City of Haikou, this journey takes you from the snowy black soil to the vast plains of North China. When crossing the Qiongzhou Strait, since there is no cross-sea bridge, the train will board a ferry, making it a unique experience.

3️⃣ K7092 Snowfield Journey

🔥 Route: Border Manzhouli—Harbin

🌟 A train aptly named the "Snow Country Train."

In winter, there will be sections where the snow is higher than the train itself. The journey from the border town of Manzhouli to Harbin crosses the Hulunbuir Grassland and enters the Greater Khingan Range. Along the way, you'll see forests, grasslands, and lakes, with the chance to spot wild animals.
