Step into Snow Town, where this winter's heavy snowfall has transformed a cluster of wooden cottages into whimsical 'mushroom houses' straight out of a fairy tale.
Located in Mudanjiang in the northeast of the Chinese mainland, the Snow Town scenic area dazzles visitors with its knee-deep snow drifts and perfectly rounded rooftops. From a distance, the snow-laden houses resemble giant mushrooms sprouting across the frozen landscape.
By day, travellers wander through powdery lanes, pausing to capture the surreal views on social media. As dusk falls, the town glows under strings of colorful lights, casting a dreamlike aura over every snowdrift. Photographers and digital nomads alike are flocking to document these Instagram-worthy scenes.
Local businesses have embraced the surge in winter tourism, offering warm teas, hotpot workshops and guided night tours. This blend of immersive experiences and natural beauty makes Snow Town a must-visit destination for young global citizens seeking fresh travel stories.
With its unique architecture and ethereal atmosphere, Snow Town proves that sometimes the simplest settings—wooden cabins blanketed in snow—can spark the most unforgettable adventures.
