Speaking of Lake Baikal, everyone must be familiar with it. Lake Baikal, located in the south of Eastern Siberia, Russia, is known as the deepest lake in the world.

At the same time, as the largest freshwater lake on the Eurasian continent, Lake Baikal also has breathtaking and magnificent beauty. Especially in winter, the cold wind from Siberia blows across the lake, freezing the blue lake water, and the ice surface stretches as far as the eye can see, like a huge blue crystal inlaid there.

The most spectacular thing is underwater. The strings of bubbles rising from the water are also frozen in the extremely low temperature environment, forming a string of ice bubbles under the ice surface, which looks like a galaxy of stars and countless icebergs. Pearls are all over the bottom of the water.

Such beautiful and peculiar scenery attracts countless tourists to watch. But, did you know that in China, there is also such a scenic spot, which has the beauty that does not belong to Lake Baikal and the cold winter that is comparable to the coldness of Siberia?

At the northernmost tip of China, there is Mohe, the "Arctic Point" of China. As one of the pollution-free natural and pure lands in China, Mohe is an important protection area for national ecological security and an ecological function protection area in Heilongjiang Province.

There are more than 350 days in a year in Mohe where the air quality can reach above "excellent", with as many as 50,000 negative oxygen ions per cubic centimeter in the air, and the annual average of fine particles is less than 10 micrograms. This excellent air quality makes Mohe the only place in China where you can observe the Northern Lights and experience polar day and night.

In winter in Mohe, the lowest temperature can reach minus 35 degrees Celsius! What kind of concept is this? You pour a pot of freshly boiled water, and the water will solidify as soon as it rises into the air, turning into countless tiny ice particles, forming a large piece of ice mist that spreads like a splash in midair.

Even at such a low temperature, Mohe will also have a spectacle of ice bubbles that is not inferior to that of Lake Baikal. Under the water, countless ice bubbles are like a string of luxurious pearl necklaces, which seem to be sealed under the ice surface like eternity.

It is not only a visual spectacle experience, but also a sense of the suspension of time. It seems that in this piece of heaven and earth, time has stopped flowing, and it is frozen in this moment of eternal tranquility.

In addition to the ice bubble wonders comparable to Lake Baikal, there are many unique scenery in Mohe waiting for tourists to explore and experience. The endless deep forest is composed of birch and pine trees, and it is covered with a thick coat of white snow. From a distance, the snow-covered forest is even more spectacular.

And in the woodland, you will meet various wild animals unexpectedly. Every encounter is a surprise. A meeting with wild elk eyes can make people have a deeper understanding of this winter snow town that belongs to the Northland. Feel the romantic feelings from China to the northern tip.

There is also China's Lengji Village. The buildings here are full of the characteristics of the Northeast countryside. The houses are uniformly small bungalows built with red tiles, which look a bit warm in the snow; and the fence outside the courtyard is a wooden fence with the characteristics of the forest farm area, which matches the hanging of every household. The bright red lanterns seem to bring people back to the lively atmosphere of hunting in the mountains and going home for the New Year in an instant. And when these buildings were covered with thick snow, it was like coming to a fairy tale world at that moment.

Think about the ultra-low temperature close to minus 50 degrees outside the window, but inside the window, a whole room of people can sit around the table and eat delicious Northeast stew, scoop up a spoonful of hot and fragrant chicken soup, how warm it is!

What makes people linger even more is the beautiful night sky of Lengji Village. In this village where you can see the aurora, because of the extremely clean air, you can see the clear night sky every day, the stars are twinkling, and the galaxy is bright, making people feel like they are in the void. In this mysterious and peaceful vast universe, I can't extricate myself.

All in all, although Mohe is very cold, the sky is covered with snow, and there are thousands of miles of ice and ice bubbles. It is a strange beauty that cannot be seen in many places, and it is very suitable for sightseeing.
