What to wear and bring in Harbin in April?

Early April

Harbin's April days are 5°C (41°F) to 16°C (61°F), but nights drop to -5°C (23°F). Mornings by the thawing Songhua River stay icy—wear thermal leggings under windproof pants and a fleece under a waterproof jacket. Pick boots with non-slip soles for icy paths. Bring a beanie, gloves, and moisturizer for dry winds.

Mid-April

Mid-April sees big temperature swings—sunny days hit 24°C (75°F), rainy days drop to 2°C (36°F). Wear breathable layers under a light down vest. Switch to waterproof sneakers for muddy streets. Use sunglasses and SPF 30 sunscreen for strong sun (check air quality on hazy days). Keep a compact raincoat ready for surprise showers.

Late April

Late April brings warmer days (18°C–24°C/64°F–75°F) but cooler evenings (7°C/45°F). Choose quick-dry shirts under windproof jackets for river walks. Add a light scarf for sunset strolls. Switch to breathable trail shoes.

Touring Harbin in April

In April, the weather gets warmer and it's often sunny. It's a great time to visit Volga Manor. The grass in Volga Manor is green and nice. Volga Manor is near the Ashi River. The river has a natural wetland. In the manor, there are big gardens and wetlands. The wetland views are really beautiful. The Polar Park in Harbin has a Polar Aquarium. It's a good place to visit. There are shows of beluga whales and dolphins in the pavilion. And there is the world's first cloned Arctic wolf. You can watch the great shows here. And you can also learn a lot about science. It's very educational.
