CCTV News: Harbin’s hot ice and snow tours and warm and sincere hospitality have attracted more and more foreign tourists to unlock new experiences. Many foreign friends have filmed their experiences in Harbin into a short film and posted them on social media. Let’s take a look at their experiences in Harbin together.
American boy Evan Kyle, who donated World War II albums to China, was invited to watch the China Taiwan Spring Festival Gala on site this year. His trip to China originally planned to stay for 30 days, but it was extended to nearly 90 days. Evan Kyle went to many Chinese cities, including the host of the Asian Winter Games - Harbin and Yabuli. Evan Kyle posted a video on every itinerary to share what he saw and heard with netizens.
American Youth Evan Kyle: Harbin is a great place for anyone. Winter sports are popular here, and this Asian Winter Games are an example. I especially like mascots, Nini and Binbin, the tiger's look is so cute. Everyone was very friendly to me and I had a great time. I think people will enjoy this year's Asian Winter Games very much.
Along the way, Evan Kyle felt the enthusiasm of the Chinese people. The ice and snow were cold, but the friendship was heartwarming.
A few days ago, Evan Kyle left China temporarily and could not hide his reluctance. He said that China has become his second home.
American Youth Evan Kyle: All the wonderful experiences, all the kindness, all the things I learned, I really spent an unparalleled time. I sincerely hope that those in the West who saw this video will give China a chance and don’t believe what the media says, China is a very amazing country.
Jeke from the UK also regards China as his second home. Because of love, Jake stayed in Harbin. He used video to record the heartwarming stories that were constantly staged in the city.
British Youth Jake: Because my wife is from Harbin, and we live here now. We are all proud of this city, so I feel we all want to do our best to let more people understand how great and beautiful the city is. No matter where you come from, the people in this city will make you feel at home.
Local people are opening their arms to look forward to sharing their love for the city with winter sports athletes and fans. This is why Harbin will become the perfect host of the 2025 Asian Winter Games. In February, athletes from all over Asia will gather in the snow-cold city of Northeast China to compete for the desirable gold medal. I believe that Harbin will once again prove that it is a city that warmly welcomes visitors from all directions.
