Bacha Hezhe Ethnic Township

八岔赫哲族乡

A Hezhe township on the lower Heilong River with more unspoiled fishing villages. It's another key place to experience Hezhe fishing and hunting culture.

Located on the banks of the Heilong River about 110 km northeast of Tongjiang city, Bacha is, like Jiejinkou, a Hezhe settlement. Its community feels even more traditional, with Bacha Island and riverside fishing villages. Traditional Hezhe fishing and fish-skin craftsmanship are still practised, and in summer, after the river ice breaks up, fishing boats can be seen at work. Tourist facilities are basic, making it suitable for travellers who drive along the G331 border highway or stop on the way to Fuyuan. The route runs through a border area, so carry your ID at all times.
