Mohe City & North Star Square
漠河市区·北极星广场
The central square of Mohe city, where you can climb up for a view over the small town. It is a place to rest before and after trips to Beiji Village.
Mohe city (Xilinji Town) is small and is the main place where visitors arrive and stay. North Star Square sits on a small hill in the city center and is a city landmark. A North Star sculpture stands on the square, and climbing the steps offers views over the Mohe urban area and the surrounding forest. Nearby Songyuan Park preserves a patch of primeval Mongolian pine forest and is a pleasant place for a city stroll. In winter the city sets up ice sculptures and snow scenes, which look best when the lights come on at night. Around the summer solstice the city also hosts related events. The city has many hotels, restaurants and shops, where you can buy extreme-cold gear and try Northeastern Chinese dishes and river fish. The square is free to enter.
