哈尔滨,别名"冰城",是国际著名的冰雪旅游城市和冰雪文化城市,也是东亚文化之都。哈尔滨有着悠久的历史,还有着多个富有冬季特色的文化景观。但有位外国游客去游玩后感到有点遗憾。他有什么遗憾呢?
With some free time during the Spring Festival holiday, I thought it was about time I made one of my China dreams come true: visiting Harbin! I joined a tour and wrapped up in as many layers as I could.
The morning of the first day was spent visiting Siberian tigers. It was amazing seeing the animals up close, with there being so few left in their natural habitat. As they walked around, it was hard to process that they were even real at all.
That same afternoon, it came time to see the wonderful snow and ice world. This frozen amusement park just blew me away. The giant ice statues, all lit up from the inside, were simply magical to explore. And the variety of attractions and games available, such as sledding, made the trip all the more worthwhile.
My only regret was wearing only two pairs of socks and not three, as after the sun went down the temperatures quickly dropped as well.
While walking down the Central Street on my second day, architectural influences from both the present and the past were on full display, showing an amazing mix of cultures. In some ways, it reminded me of Nanjing Road in Shanghai just a lot colder! The freezing temperatures didn't stop visitors from enjoying the local ice cream, however.
The most fantastic part of the trip, however, had to be Saint Sophia Building. The beautiful building sits in the middle of a large square, its large domes and beautiful facade grabbing the attention of all visitors. Looking at the structure transported me to the past, and I imagined how difficult it must have been to create such a beautiful building in these cold conditions.
The magic of this icy city has stuck with me since and I can't wait until next winter to visit again.

哈尔滨，别名“冰城”，是国际著名的冰雪旅游城市和冰雪文化城市，也是东亚文化之都。哈尔滨有着悠久的历史，还有着多个富有冬季特色的文化景观。但有位外国游客去游玩后感到有点遗憾。他有什么遗憾呢？
春节假期有一些空闲时间，我觉得是时候实现我的一个中国梦了：游览哈尔滨！我参加了一个旅行团，并且尽可能多地穿上衣服来保暖。
第一天上午的时间都用来参观东北虎了。近距离看到这些动物很令人惊叹，因为它们在自然栖息地的数量已经很少了。当它们四处走动时，我很难相信它们竟然是真实存在的。
同一天下午，到了去看奇妙的冰雪世界的时候了。这个 frozen（冰冻的）游乐园让我大为惊叹。巨大的冰雕，内部都被点亮了，探索起来简直不可思议。而且那里有各种各样的景点和游戏，比如滑雪橇，这让这次旅行更加值得了。
我唯一的遗憾是只穿了两双袜子而不是三双，因为太阳下山后，气温也很快下降了。
第二天我走在中央大街上时，当下和过去的建筑风格影响都充分展现出来，呈现出令人惊叹的文化融合。在某些方面，它让我想起了上海的南京路，只是冷多了！然而，严寒的气温并没有阻止游客享用当地的冰淇淋。
然而，这次旅行最奇妙的部分一定是圣索菲亚教堂。这座美丽的建筑坐落在一个大广场的中央，它巨大的穹顶和美丽的正面吸引了所有游客的注意力。看着这座建筑，我仿佛回到了过去，我想象着在这样寒冷的条件下建造这样一座美丽的建筑一定是多么困难。
从那以后，这座冰城的魔力就一直伴随着我，我迫不及待地想在下一个冬天再次游览这里。
