Bathing in the sunshine by the Songhua River to embrace Harbin's summer

Harbin isn't just about the Ice and Snow World in winter—it's also perfect for city walks during summer. This is already my second consecutive summer visiting Harbin. In early summer, the city is pleasantly cool with gorgeous weather, and the skies are filled with breathtaking clouds. Thanks to its high latitude, stunning sunsets are a frequent sight 🧚 Since this trip was for work, my friends specially booked me a hotel that prioritizes high-quality sleep. Not only was it conveniently located near Central Street, but my room also offered a view of the Songhua River. Even outside winter, I could still see the Ferris wheel of the Ice and Snow World from my window 🎡 Waking up to this view was truly healing. As someone who spends 200 out of 365 days a year traveling for work, this was my first time staying at such a remarkable hotel. Their entire bedding system is designed to enhance sleep quality—from the essential oil diffusers, earplugs, and aromatherapy patches upon check-in, to pillows tailored to each guest's neck length. As someone who values good sleep, I felt utterly pampered 🥹 True to DeRUCCI's reputation, my smartwatch showed significantly longer deep sleep hours than usual this time 🙈 Though my stay in Harbin lasted only two short days, I'm already looking forward to returning in another season to rediscover the city. DeRUCCI, see you next time~
