Cycling in Suifenhe - See three generations of national gates at the National Gate Scenic Area

Today I rode to the Guomen Scenic Area. I had been there when I went to the Yalu River in 2016. Now eight years have passed and there have been a lot of changes. The scenic spot started charging admission fees, 50 yuan per person. The newly built gate of the scenic area is a Russian-style European classical building, and it is called "opening the lid of history." The gate of Suifenhe National Gate Scenic Area is based on the Russian railway station building designed by Vkonovalov and built in 1912. The gate of Suifenhe National Gate Scenic Area is made entirely of wood, with a main body height of 8.32 meters, a total height of 10.95 meters and a width of 21.20 meters. The main entrance adopts a triple arch form, with simple and heavy columns and exquisite appearance. It is full of Russian aristocratic atmosphere and is a landmark landscape of Suifenhe. There is an abstract shape of the Sui-Man Railway in the scenic area, and the capital 1527 on it is the distance from Suifenhe to Manzhouli. There are sculptures of the Middle East Railway, the first, second and third generation national gates, the century-old port stone carvings, the new and old boundary markers No. 357, a Russian-style supermarket, etc. There are more architectural facilities than the last time I came here. The first generation of national gate is just a simple manually moved railing; the second generation of national gate is a more modern building; the third generation of national gate is very tall and majestic. On the fifth and sixth floors of the Third Generation National Gate, you can see some Suifenhe photography exhibitions and overlook the Russian side. A new national gate is under construction. After leaving the scenic area, riding back was basically downhill all the way. Passing by Beihai Park, there didn't seem to be anything to see, but there were a few RVs parked there.
