Day 1

Arrival, Garden & River

The botanical garden first, then the Hulan River bank — the waterway Xiao Hong fixed in her 1940 novel. Winter lows sit near −20 °C, so the June-September window matters.

Day 2

Black-Soil Farm Day

This is one of the world's three great black-soil belts, where 1 cm of topsoil takes some 200-400 years to form; with only about 130 frost-free days, the farm calendar runs compressed and intense.
