(250812) -- HARBIN, Aug. 12, 2025 (Xinhua) -- Tourists take photos on the Central Street in Harbin, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, on Aug. 5, 2025. While much of China swelters under scorching summer heat, Harbin, capital of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, is drawing visitors with a refreshing contrast, offering a chilly escape fueled by its pleasantly cool climate.

From January to June this year, Harbin welcomed 86.98 million tourist visits and recorded 137.58 billion yuan (about 19.27 billion U.S. dollars) in tourism revenue, up 17.8 percent and 14 percent year on year, respectively, according to the Harbin municipal bureau of culture, radio, television and tourism.
