Snow-covered birch forests, glistening rime frost❄️, colorful houses—every snapshot is a stunning masterpiece📸. Dogs can freely explore and run around🐾, and both people and dogs can choose to hike a small loop trail.

In recent years, Weihai has become a popular travel city, beautiful all year round, and the snow season is especially dreamy, truly a romantic highlight💖. Snow falls on the beach, sea mist drifts, shipwrecks lie quietly, swans dance gracefully, and running happily with your dog in the snow🐕 makes every photo look like a movie scene🎬. It’s best to visit from December to January when the chance of snow is higher☃️. Check the weather before traveling. Holidays are crowded, so off-peak travel is recommended🚗. 📍Harbin · Wuchang City, Shahezi Town, Snow Valley How can you miss the Northeast for snow fun?
