Jiayin Port Riverside

嘉荫口岸界江观景

The riverbank of Jiayin Port, a first-class national port of entry, with views across to Pashkovo in Russia; the river freezes over in winter.

Jiayin Port lies on the right bank of the Heilongjiang, southeast of the county town on the downstream side, opposite the Pashkovo port in Russia. During the open-water season, goods move by boat; in winter, they move across an ice route. The riverbank around the port is open, with wide views of the river and the Russian forests on the far shore, making it one of the places near town to watch the sunrise over the border river. The restricted port area requires identity documents to enter. Ordinary visitors may only view the river from open banks and must not photograph border defense facilities. It is about 8 km from the county town and can be reached by taxi or car.
