Harbin Flood Control Memorial Tower, Heilongjiang, China

Memorial Tower
This memorial tower is quite ordinary in structure and design, but its historical significance draws tourists to this tower. It commemorates the victory of the people during the great flood in 1957. Look out for the horizontal bar, which indicates the flood level at that time. I recommend you plan your itinerary to visit this memorial tower together with the nearby Saint Sophia Cathedral and Zhongyang (Central) Pedestrian Street.

Next to Song Hua River
Came here twice with my family members- once at night and during the day. Stalin Park is just next to this and must walk at night. At that time, there were works going on at Stalin Park and the monument as the workers and artists were busy carving ice and snow sculptures. It’s like the entire city are busy with a huge project. There were lighted ice sculptures at the monument at night and we crossed the busy curved lane to get to Zhongyang Main Street or Central Ave for shopping and dinner. The next day, we visited again but this time to participate in the Song Hua River Snow and Ice Carnival. Song Hua River was frozen and there were a lot of activities are taking place on it. There were kiddy rides, horse carriages, snow buggies, tobanggans, banana boats on ice, kiddy tanks and so on. Each ride was around RMB 50-80 , for just 5 mins or 10 mins, which I felt was rather expensive. They didn’t take cash.. Nor was there any ticketing booth. Had to pay via WeChat or AliPay.

Impressive monument
An impressive monument, and worth walking down to see. It lights up at night, illuminated different colours. Slightly sidelined by the ice sculptures around, but still lovely to see. Also a great Starbucks here for a warming cup of coffee with a view!
