Can you really see the aurora in Mohe, the northernmost county in China? Rare natural landscapes in China: The most difficult to chase is the aurora in Mohe, which has not appeared for many years. The highest probability of seeing the aurora is from November to March. At this time, the lowest temperature in most parts of Heilongjiang is minus ten or twenty degrees Celsius, and even this year in Mohe it was as low as minus 53 degrees Celsius. In fact, it is still 1,500 kilometers away from the Arctic Circle. It is called the Arctic Village because it fits people's impression of the Arctic. In addition to the aurora, there is also a natural phenomenon called white nights. If you can't catch the aurora, what else can you do in Mohe? Some people call this trip a journey to find the north, staying in the "northernmost family", finding the "Shenzhou Arctic Stone", taking photos with the "northernmost outpost" and "northernmost boundary monument", sending a postcard to a friend at the "northernmost post office", and making iron flowers under the "northernmost sunshine".

Ussuri Shoal is the true northernmost point of China in a geographical sense, facing Russia across the Heilongjiang River. The border river and the forest scenery are tranquil and expansive, and the stone monument at the entrance is a memorable landmark. However, there is no public transportation, so you need to hire a car to get there. The shuttle bus stops at the scenic area for a short time, and the tour content is limited, so making it not very cost-effective to make a special trip there.

After returning from the Arctic Village, most people will stay in Mohe for a day. The North Star Square is also a must-see place. You need to climb many steps to reach it. It is very beautiful to take pictures from above.

It was built as Songyuan Park in 1999. The park is 282 meters long from east to west and 182 meters wide from north to south, covering an area of ​​51,324 square meters. The total forest volume in the park is 400 cubic meters. The main tree species are larch and larch, of which larch is the largest, accounting for 95%. Because this forest is located on the gentle slope of the valley, it grows together with the Xing'an azalea, so it is also called azalea-larch forest. Xing'an azalea, commonly known as Dazixiang, is also called Manshanhong and Yingshanhong. The park has two gates in the east and west. The west gate is the main gate, with the inscription "Songyuan" by Chen Lei, the former governor of Heilongjiang Province, and painted murals on both sides. The whole park is shaded by trees and flowers are everywhere. There are forest trails and stone tables and wooden chairs in the park. It is one of the very few primitive forest parks in the city in the country.

Shenzhou Arctic Square... It's right inside the Golden Rooster Crown (the place to watch the Northern Lights) gate. The winter scenery is absolutely stunning... Covered in snow.

I found the north here. It is the northernmost part of China, on the border. I went there in autumn, but it was still quite cold. The scenery in Mohe is nice, quite natural and wild, and the people are quite straightforward and enthusiastic. I like this place very much.

The Arctic sandbar is pristine and beautiful. The Heilongjiang River flows through it. On the riverside stands a tall, three-dimensional steel building in the shape of the Chinese character "北". There stands a triangular pyramid steel tower, on which the longitude and latitude of this place are clearly marked. The top of the tower is the "northernmost point" of China's territory. The Chinese Arctic logo is very distinctive. It is actually three halves of the Chinese character "北". It is the Chinese character "北" from any angle.
