The event, organized by the Harbin Department of Culture, Radio, Television, and Tourism, was attended by over 80 employees of cultural and tourism departments in Harbin and the Primorsky Krai region of the Russian Federation, as well as representatives of relevant enterprises.
The promotional presentation program included literary and artistic performances, the promotion of attractions, a lottery, and the signing of cooperation agreements between travel agencies from China and Russia.

Speaking at the promotional presentation, Vice Mayor of Suifenhe Huang Xuzhong expressed hope that this event will contribute to strengthening pragmatic cooperation between Suifenhe and Harbin in cultural, tourism, trade, economic, and other areas, as well as the qualitative development of inbound tourism, so that overseas tourists can enjoy the best travel experience.
According to a responsible official of the Harbin City Administration of Culture, Radio, Television, and Tourism, Harbin and Suifenhe have jointly developed a unique route, leveraging their respective advantages. This route allows Russian tourists to not only enjoy the unique scenery of the border city of Suifenhe, but also attend winter-themed events held in Harbin and experience Harbin's profound cultural and humanitarian appeal.
He expressed hope that, against the backdrop of the mutual introduction of a visa-free regime between China and Russia, all parties concerned will deepen cooperation and pool resources to develop more attractive and competitive cross-border tourism routes and promote the sustainable development of Chinese-Russian cross-border tourism. -0-
