General presentation
Qiqihar et Zhalong
Former Manchua city and large reed reserve form one of the best crane observation areas in China.

Together, they form a destination where urban life, wetlands, natural spaces and heritage meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than a single uniform decor.
