Go see the tigers

Hengdaohezi Northeast Tiger Forest Park is located in Hailin City, Mudanjiang. If you drive from Harbin, take the Suiman Expressway and exit at the Hengdaohezi toll station. It’s just a few minutes' drive from there. The tiger park offers free parking, and the highway is in good condition. The total distance is less than 300 kilometers, and you can reach it within three hours, making it very suitable for self-driving. The best part of the park is the tiger cubs. Over 20 little tigers play and frolic in a circular yard, instantly making you understand the meaning of 'tiger-headed and tiger-brained.' They are extremely cute. The park also has a free-range area for Northeast tigers, which you can view from an iron cage car, as well as lions, bears, monkeys, alpacas, and more. Tickets cost 50 yuan, and it’s an additional 10 yuan per person to ride the iron cage car through the free-range area. The prices are very reasonable.
