BEIJING, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) — As of Tuesday, cargo turnover through the Xunke Port, located in the Xunke County of Heihe City, Heilongjiang Province, on the border with Russia, exceeded 100,000 tons this year, an increase of 142.8 percent year-on-year, the Heihe Daily newspaper reported.

Meanwhile, the value of trade turnover recorded at this border crossing amounted to 260 million yuan (approximately $36.61 million), a 66.6 percent increase compared to the same period last year. The growth of both indicators demonstrates breakthrough progress in Xunke's foreign trade.

As noted by the checkpoint administration, the cargo turnover target of 100,000 tons set at the beginning of this year was achieved 50 days earlier than planned.

The Xunke Port Authority actively expanded its sourcing channels and strengthened cooperation with Russian suppliers, importing frozen fish products, cookies, and beverages from Russia for the first time.

In July of this year, 12 tons of frozen Russian chum salmon successfully cleared customs. This marks the first import of chilled fish products into the county, marking a significant step in the high-quality development of border trade with Russia.

Let us remember that the Xunke checkpoint and the Poyarkovo checkpoint in the Amur Region are separated by the Heilongjiang River /Amur/. -0-

On September 16, at 3:38 PM local time, the first special train in Hebei Province, along the Kandahao "red tourism" route, departed from Baimahe Station in Xingtai. The train travels along the Xingtai-Heshun railway line, from Baimahe Station in Xindu District to Jianshui Township, home to the Memorial Exhibition Hall of the Chinese People's Anti-Japanese Military and Political University. The total route length is 55 km, and the journey takes over 40 minutes. This is not only an important transportation route for local residents but also a convenient way for travelers to immerse themselves in the tourist experience.

The Chinese People's Anti-Japanese Military and Political University (abbreviated from Chinese: Kanda) is an institution of higher education established by the Communist Party of China during the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression to train military and political cadres. In 1940, the university's students relocated to the village of Jiangshui, located deep in the Taihang Mountains, where they continued their studies behind enemy lines for two years and three months, leaving behind the largest and best-preserved university complex of memorial sites.

The Kandahao Special Train passes through 5 rural areas and 51 villages, several tunnels and bridges, connecting urban areas with the Taihang Mountains, which has significantly improved transportation accessibility in the western mountainous areas of Xingtai.

The train's exterior is set against the majestic backdrop of the Taihang Mountains, complete with the university flag and red ribbons, along with the slogan "So close, so beautiful – Hebei for the weekend!" This creates a striking appearance. Inside, the train is decorated with stickers featuring the university flag, three large characters representing the train's name, "Hebei Hebei," stand out on the ceiling, and a chronology on the floor depicts the university's arduous journey from July 1939, when the parent university left Yan'an, Shaanxi Province, and was transferred to Jiangshui behind enemy lines, to November 1940. This allows passengers to experience the natural beauty of Xingtai and the university's revolutionary spirit during the journey.

At approximately 4:25 PM, the Kandahao train came to a smooth stop at the terminal station of Jiangshui. Jiangshui, where the station is located, has a long history and rich cultural heritage, as well as profound revolutionary significance. In 2024, the "University Estates" project was completed in Jiangshui Village, in Zhaishan Village, where the university's memorial sites are located. The project covers an area of approximately 4 hectares, with a total construction area of 5,000 square meters. Particular attention is paid to the restoration of 150 old residential buildings in 45 courtyards in accordance with their historical authenticity, as well as to the complete recreation of historical scenes of university life in Zhaishan Village, which attract tourists.

The launch of the dedicated "red" tourism route continues to improve transport flows in the region, reducing congestion on roads, effectively unlocking the potential of the Taihang Mountains cultural and tourism zone, and thereby accelerating the development of the cultural and tourism industry in the area. Li Yaohui, Deputy Director of the Xingtai Development and Reform Commission, noted that after its full launch, the route will be officially integrated into China Railway's 12306 ticket booking system, which will gradually increase the frequency of services in both directions and better meet the needs of the general public, including tourists.
