Since early May, Heihe's China-Russia Ethnic Culture Park has become a must-visit for travelers across the Chinese mainland and beyond. Once the filming site for the acclaimed TV series "The Dawns Here Are Quiet," the park now welcomes thousands of guests daily to explore its blend of history, culture and scenic charm.
Walk through the preserved trenches and emplacements that served as backdrops in World War II scenes, then step into a world of Russian-style villages—complete with ornate wooden homes and onion-domed churches. Just steps away, an authentic Oroqen ethnic village offers hands-on workshops where visitors can learn traditional crafts, taste local delicacies and join vibrant dance performances.
For young global citizens and digital nomads craving immersive travel, the park's interactive exhibitions and photo-ready backdrops create the perfect social media moment. Business and tech enthusiasts see inspiration in the park's cross-border cooperation—Heihe's proximity to Russia and shared cultural heritage underscore the power of collaboration in tourism and beyond.
Thought leaders and changemakers will appreciate initiatives aimed at preserving ethnic heritage and promoting sustainable tourism. By highlighting the stories of Oroqen artisans and Russian architects who helped shape the park, organizers foster dialogue on cultural preservation and responsible travel.
Whether you're a film buff tracing your favorite TV scenes, a culture enthusiast exploring Sino-Russian ties, or an adventurous traveler seeking an off-the-beaten-path destination, Heihe's culture park offers a gateway to history, community and creativity along the border of the Chinese mainland.
