Harbin Stalin Park



Built in 1953 and also called Jiangpan Park originally, the Stalin park is located on the southern bank of the Songhua River. Extending 1,750 meters from the Songhua River railway bridge to the east and Jiuzhao Park to the west, it is a belt-shaped open park along the bank. As its name suggests, the park is the evidence of the friendship between Russia and China at that time. The park is characterized by Russian style flowers and a series of statues placed along the park. Being right on the southern banks of the Songhua River, the visitors get a close up view of the river, which serves as an ideal place and a natural swimming place for both natives and tourist.

The Monument is the central attraction of the Stalin Park to commemorate the tremendous feat of the Harbin people in control the massive flood of 1957. The Monument is about 13 meters tall and consists of a Roman style cylinder column with statues of heroes of the flood standing on top of it. A circular ice sculpture was erected around the base of the Monument, and about another 20 meters out is a series of columns forming a half circle around the central Monument. When approaching to the New year, there are usually lanterns hanging between every pillar.
