It was really cold! In the daytime, it was around -17 degrees Celsius, and at night, it got down to -25 or -27 degrees Celsius. Even during the day, it was pretty challenging to deal with the cold.
What did you think of the chimney bread?
Oh my Lord, that is absolutely lovely! It's kind of a bit like a donut taste, maybe. It's really good!
What was the most surprising thing you saw in Harbin?
Probably the unique business practice of using corn stalks instead of flowers to wish good luck to new businesses. It's different from what I've seen in Shenzhen.
