China Snow Town (Xuexiang)



China Snow Town, formerly known as the Shuangfeng Forestry Center, is a good place for visitors and photographers to view the splendid snowscape. This town will go through seven-month snowy period annually from October to next May. Because of the frequent snowfall, the 470-acre land will be covered by snow with an average thickness of 6.6 feet (2 meters) in winter. During that time, this town is turned into a white fairy wonderland. In addition to the beautiful natural scene, visitors can also enjoy the entertainment activities such as skiing, snowballing, and horse-sledding.

You can go to Changting or Mudanjiang first and then take a shuttle bus to Xuexiang. It is hard to find available bus schedule so it is more recommended to hire a car directly.

According to the news, there used to be buses operating between Snow Town and Mudanjaing. I'm not clear about now. The schedule can't be found on line. It is better for you to confirm the hotel staff in the Snow Town who possibly knows the bus schedule.

Hi fellow SGP. I am also planning a trip to Snow Town, scheduled for January. I was planning to go there via Mudanjiang. Perhaps we need to look at alternative route from Yabuli

Generally, the direct shuttle bus from Central Street will start service from mid-or late-November. When you reach the Snow Town, it is easy to walk to the hotel.
