Complete Guide to Chasing the Aurora in Mohe: China’s Only Arctic Fairy Tale Scene Squatting in minus 40°C for a sea of pink-green light, I waited at the border line for the first aurora of 2025. Do you believe it? On the northernmost snowfield in China, I waited for three nights and finally saw that ghostly light. It rose from the horizon, like green silk swirling in the night sky, suddenly bursting into pink and purple ripples. At that moment, I knelt in the snow and cried. Not sentimental, but the instinctive trembling of a human facing the universe. 📍This is Mohe City, China At 53°N latitude, facing Russia across the river, the only place in China where you can see the aurora. From December to February each year, as long as the night is dark enough and the magnetic field is active enough, this silent snowfield will be illuminated by light from solar storms. This is not Finland, nor Iceland, this is our own edge of the Earth. 🌌Best time: mid-December to early February ✅ Longest nights around the winter solstice (17 hours of darkness = more chances to observe) ✅ High clear-sky rate, transparent air, almost zero light pollution ✅ Increased aurora activity, especially during solar activity peaks ⚠️ Tip: The aurora is unpredictable! It’s recommended to stay at least 3 nights to increase your chances. 🧣Must-read before you go｜Life-saving warmth guide -Four-layer dressing rule Thermal underwear + fleece + down vest + long, thick down coat (length past the knees) Three layers for pants: thermal leggings + wool pants + windproof ski pants Shoes must be high-top, non-slip snow boots (UGG style or mountaineering grade) with warm insoles Face mask + knit hat + waterproof gloves set, or your ears will freeze in minutes -Keep your phone and camera close! They will automatically shut down after 5 minutes in low temperatures 🗺️Four-day essential itinerary So off-the-beaten-path even GPS gets lost Day 1: Arrive in Mohe, check in at China’s northernmost village, eat your first frozen meal Fly to Harbin → transfer by train/bus to Mohe Station (even hard seats are worth it! Window views of endless snowy forests) 🏡 Stay at **Arctic Village wooden cabin guesthouses (recommended Aurora Home or Snowy Orion), with heating + private bathroom 📍Check in at: Northernmost Post Office: send a postcard to your future self Northernmost Outpost: watch PLA soldiers stand guard in the wind and snow Arctic Sandbar: take a photo with the China Arctic Point monument 🍽 Dinner: iron pot stewed river fish + sauerkraut pork + frozen pear platter My thought: The words “northernmost” are not just geographic coordinates, but a kind of lonely romance. Day 2: Deep into the Daxing’anling wilderness, snow trekking by day, aurora watching by night 🌲 Daytime: hike through pristine white birch forest, look for wild animal tracks (roe deer, fox, moose) 🐍 Afternoon: visit Oroqen hunter tents, listen to elders tell the “bear totem” legend 🌃 Night: drive to a light-pollution-free observation spot (guide takes you to secret locations) Set up a tent or sit in a heated snow cabin Use long exposure on your camera to capture aurora trails If luck is on your side, witness the green curtain suddenly explode into purple-red waves! When the aurora sounds, no one speaks, only shutter clicks and breaths echo. It’s like the universe sending us a secret code. Day 3: Longjiang First Bend + Ice Wedding Square｜Shoot a set of ultra-cold photos ☀ Daytime: Climb the lookout tower to overlook the S-shaped ice bay of the Heilongjiang River, like a silver dragon coiled Wear a red cloak to take photos at the ice wedding square, with the China-Russia border marker in the background Experience horse-drawn sledding, racing across the snowfield like the opening of Game of Thrones 🍷 Evening: gather around the stove, drink blueberry wine, listen to locals tell “aurora stories” In the 1980s, some elders said if they saw red cloth floating in the sky, a heavy snowstorm would come the next day—that was an aurora warning Day 4: Last strike before departure｜Make a wish at the Aurora Lighthouse 🕯 Book the aurora wishing ceremony in advance (only open in winter) Write your wish on a wooden lighthouse and hang it on the rope Light a pine torch and silently recite your wish to the starry sky The guide says: wishes made here are more likely to be heard by the stars. 💰Per person budget: 5200 RMB (cheaper if two travel together) Item Cost Round-trip transportation 1500 RMB 4 nights accommodation 800 RMB Meals 600 RMB Tickets + experiences 700 RMB Guide + aurora observation 600 RMB Souvenirs + emergencies 500 RMB Reserve fund 500 RMB ✅ With good control, you can keep it under 5000 RMB! 📸Photo tips: Camera settings: Manual mode, F2.8, ISO 1600, shutter 10-20 seconds Night mode on phones can also capture light bands Wear bright colors (red, yellow, white), very eye-catching in the snow 📌One last honest word: Many say the aurora is unpredictable, But I’d rather wait three nights in minus 40°C, Just for that one minute when my heart stops. Because when you see the universe’s light travel 200 million kilometers to your eyes, You’ll understand What’s worth pursuing in life is never the hustle and bustle, But those moments that suddenly make you quiet. 👉 Next stop, I’ll take you to Hulunbuir snowfield to ride horses chasing wolf tracks, But this time, I want to ask you first: How long has it been since you last looked up at a real starry sky?

Location: Genhe City, Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Admission: ¥40 (No reservations required, but internet signal is poor, so it's best to have cash on hand.) The deer park is located within the Greater Khingan Range, making it ideal for self-driving. On the day of our visit, the drive from Genhe City took about two hours. This is a reindeer and sika deer-themed attraction, featuring vast sloping grasslands and lush forests. You can interact closely with reindeer and sika deer, making it a great family-friendly experience. The domesticated reindeer are completely fearless of people; some will beg for food from visitors, while others will rest quietly. Sika deer are more shy and don't like people getting too close. #DeerBuerXing'anSacredDeerPark

From Shiwei to Heishantou, drive along the Erguna River, the sections from Wuka to Qika to Jiuka are the most stunning! Wheat fields, haystacks, border posts, hills dyed in autumn colors… truly “driving through a painting”! 🛣️ ⚠️Note: Signal is weak throughout, download offline maps in advance; drones are prohibited! 5️⃣ Arxan Forest Park (must add if passing by!) 🔸If time allows (+2 days), rush to Tuofengling Tianchi (volcanic lake surrounded by golden pines), and Buzong River morning mist (autumn blue hour)! Autumn colors here arrive about a week earlier than Hulunbuir’s forest areas. 6️⃣ Reindeer Tribe warm moments: 🔸Aoluguya Reindeer Tribe: Spend 20 yuan to buy moss, watch reindeer gently nuzzle your palm, eyelashes frosted—a gentle heart-melting moment! 🦌 📌Photo tip: Wear white/cream sweaters, squat lightly to meet the reindeer’s eye level for intimate shots. 7️⃣ Small town slow life: 🔸Enhe Russian Village: Stay in log cabins, ride horses through misty grasslands at dawn, learn to make rye bread in the evening. 🔸Manzhouli: The Matryoshka Doll Square at night looks like a fairy tale, Mammoth Park offers vintage castle photo ops. 🍂Best time to enjoy autumn (accurate to the week!): 🔸Early autumn (9.10-9.20): Grasslands start to yellow, forests slightly tinted, fewer people and better prices. 🔸Peak autumn (9.20-10.5): The pinnacle!

Some roads are rough (border road prone to waterlogging in rainy season), local car hire about 600-800 RMB/day (including fuel), sign a contract! 🚩Don’t trust low-price tours! Be cautious of those including “herder visits,” may be heavily commercialized. 🏠Accommodation: 🔸Heating starts late September! Choose hotels with heating/electric blankets, in Enhe and Shiwei stay in newly built log cabins (better soundproofing). 🔸Book 1 month in advance! Peak season is busy, Mongolian yurts in Heishantou and Matryoshka Doll hotels in Manzhouli are in high demand. 👗Clothing: 🧣Big temperature differences! Sweater + jacket during the day, thin down jacket/windbreaker needed for mornings and evenings! Bright scarves/hats add a nice touch. 👢Waterproof boots are essential (heavy dew on grasslands in the morning)! 🍽️Food: 🥩Must-eats: Hand-pulled meat, Buryat buns, Russian rye bread, iron pot stew, grilled lamb chops! ❗Avoid: Expensive “wild fish” near scenic spots. 🔖Others: 💰Bring cash! Signal is weak in border areas. ♻️Protect the environment, don’t trample the grasslands! 🐎 Ride horses at official stables (Heishantou is the most regulated), buy insurance! ✨Conclusion: Autumn in Hulunbuir is a gentle painting of endless grasslands and rivers, the soft sound of reindeer crossing the tundra, and the undisturbed freedom along the border roads.

Genhe is the second northernmost county-level city in China, located at 52 degrees north latitude, with a coldest temperature of minus 58 degrees and an average annual temperature of minus 5 degrees. As a small potato from the south, coming here in the height of summer in August, I still had to wear a thick coat. Genhe's morning market has all kinds of vegetables and fruits, especially various types and colors of tomatoes, which I found very novel. Here, I tried biting into a pine cone for the first time and realized that squirrels must find it quite tiring to gnaw on pine cones. The guesthouse I stayed at in Genhe: Muxin Yijia Guesthouse. The owner is very kind, and in the garden, they grow green onions, lettuce, and cucumbers that you can pick and eat yourself. The cucumbers 🥒 are very delicious 😋. Leaving Genhe, I headed to Xing'an Sacred Deer Park. The signal here is poor, and tickets can be purchased with cash for 40 yuan. There are more sika deer here, but fewer reindeer 🫎 than expected, and it was not as fun as I had imagined.

Genheyuan National Wetland Park is located on the western slope of the northern foot of the Greater Khingan Range, in Genhe City, Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The park has a variety of ecosystems including forests, swamps, rivers, lakes, etc. The forests and wetlands are interlaced and are all in their original or natural state. It is the breeding ground for many East Asian waterfowl and one of the most intact and typical cold temperate wetland ecosystems in my country that has preserved its original state. Genhe River, the largest tributary of the Ergun River, is the main body of the wetland park. According to local hotel staff, if it had been 15 days earlier, the entire wetland would have been colorful, instead of the single color shown in the photos today. #lake #stream #river #forest #wetland #naturetrip #naturalbeauty #naturalwonder #InnerMongolia #travelinChina
