Sanjiangkou Eco-Tourism Area
三江口
Where the Songhua and Heilong rivers meet. Waters of north-black and south-yellow flow side by side, and the Zero Kilometer marker shares the area with the Hezhe Museum.
About 4 km northeast of Tongjiang city proper, the Songhua River flows into the Heilong River. On clear days, you can see the “black north, yellow south” two-colored waters running side by side for several kilometers without mixing. The area is a national 4A-level scenic spot, open free of charge all day. It features Sanjiangkou Square, the Zero Kilometer marker and landmark tower of the Tongsan Highway, a Hezhe sculpture group and the Hezhe Museum, which is usually closed on Mondays. From here you can look across the river to Russia. Evenings bring the best light, but there are many mosquitoes by the river, so bring repellent in summer. A taxi from the city center takes about 10 minutes.
Opening hours
Scenic area open all day; museum approx. 09:00–16:30
