Heihe City lies at the northern foot of the Lesser Khingan Range, facing Blagoveshchensk of Russia across the river. It serves as a convergence point for Eastern and Western cultures.

Wudalianchi, a national-level scenic area, is located 250 kilometres southeast of Heihe. Renowned worldwide for its unique volcanic landforms and miraculous mineral springs, it is an ideal resort for leisure and recuperation.

Founded in 1955, Nenjiang Farm has undergone 45 years of development and construction. It now boasts 360,000 mu of cultivated land, 20 agricultural production units, eight industrial enterprises and more than ten service companies. It has evolved into a comprehensive modern state-owned agricultural reclamation group with thriving agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline occupations and fisheries, as well as booming industry, commerce, transportation, construction and service sectors.

The farm abounds in natural resources, including 180,000 mu of grassland, 50,000 mu of forestland, and 6,000 mu of water areas. Development projects focusing on spruce and Populus alba × P. berolinensis enjoy broad prospects. Blessed with abundant natural resources and outstanding people, the farm faces challenges brought by China’s WTO accession. Adhering to an eco-economic development strategy that advances agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry in tandem, it strives to compete in the global market by developing green industries and adjusting industrial structures. Leveraging its geographical and resource advantages, the farm has put forward a strategic plan to build national-level production bases for high-quality soybeans, improved seed breeding, premium wheat, high-value green characteristic cash crops, virus-free potato propagation, forest seedling cultivation and dairy cattle breeding. These bases have already begun to take initial shape.

Nestled against mountains and beside water, Shankou Hydropower Station boasts an elegant environment with distinct four seasons.

Address: Beside National Highway 202, Wudalianchi City, Heilongjiang Province

Huoshaoshan is situated 2 kilometres northeast of Laoheishan within Wudalianchi Scenic Area, Heihe City, Heilongjiang Province. Composed of red and black volcanic scoria and pumice, its crater resembles a broken pot scorched by raging flames, hence the name "Burnt Mountain". Smaller than Laoheishan in scale with sparse vegetation, it stands at an altitude of 390 metres.

A core component of Wudalianchi’s natural volcanic museum, Huoshaoshan erupted between 1719 and 1721, featuring pristine and spectacular geological landforms that make it a key site for geological research. Viewed from afar, the mountain appears split into eastern and western halves, as if cleaved by a giant divine axe. Its slopes are blanketed in pumice, showcasing typical volcanic features, earning it the nickname "an unsinkable volcanic mountain floating on the Pacific Ocean".

The scenic area hosts a large cluster of volcanic hornitos — the world’s rarest relic volcanic landforms, formed by layered lava accumulation as gases rose during volcanic eruptions. Huoshaoshan also abounds in miniature volcanic landforms, namely vivid pictographic stones shaped like various creatures and objects.

Located in north-central Heilongjiang Province, the Wudalianchi Scenic Area and Nature Reserve is 380 kilometres from Harbin and 230 kilometres from Heihe. Covering a total area of 1,060 square kilometres, it contains 358,000 mu of cultivated land, 321,000 mu of forestland, 57,300 mu of grassland and 150,000 mu of wetland.

The Wudalianchi Volcanic Group was formed by ancient, mid-period and modern volcanic eruptions, with exceptionally well-preserved volcanic geological landforms. It is one of the few globally complete volcanic landform complexes. Experts praise it for its scientific value, systematic integrity, comprehensiveness, typical features and aesthetic charm, ranking it China’s premier and world-famous volcanic site.

Wudalianchi mineral spring water is one of the world’s three major cold springs. It includes low-temperature carbonated cold mineral springs rich in iron, silicon, magnesium and calcium, naturally carbonated and suitable for both drinking and bathing to boost physical fitness and treat illnesses. Other varieties contain metasilicic acid and radon. The springs are hailed as "Medicinal Springs" and "Holy Water".

Wudalianchi features a pure natural oxygen bar, a unique full magnetic volcanic environment, therapeutic medicinal bathing springs, efficacious mineral ion medicinal water, and magical volcanic rock solar physiotherapy grounds. Professor Liu Jiaqi, a renowned Chinese volcanologist, commented: Integrating mountains, water, rocks and springs as one, Wudalianchi Scenic Area is the youngest volcanic region in China boasting the richest and most splendid volcanic landscapes, detailed historical records and extensive research, deserving the title of a volcanic museum.

Located within Yaoquan Mountain Park, South Spring, together with the nearby North Spring, are the most famous springs in Wudalianchi’s cold spring system and two major sources of the world-renowned Wudalianchi mineral spring water. A pavilion stands directly above the spring to protect the water source.

Spring water irrigates the entire village and nourishes a local specialty fish, golden trout. Ponds filled with this spring water teem with fish. Many visitors marvel that contrary to stereotypes, this area offers wonderful travel scenery unmatched elsewhere, with incredibly fresh air and cool spring water that makes it an ideal summer retreat. After rain clears up, double rainbows spanning red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet sometimes appear in the sky.

One of China’s typical volcanoes, Laoheishan is the tallest among the fourteen local volcanoes. Towering high, it reaches an altitude of 515.9 metres, and its slopes are largely covered in black pumice, giving rise to its name "Old Black Mountain". Winding mountain roads on its eastern and northern sides lead to the summit, where a funnel-shaped crater sits atop the peak. Approximately 350 metres in diameter and 140 metres deep, the crater has steep, imposing inner walls. A pedestrian path encircles the crater; gazing down into its depths evokes a sense of awe.
