Tourists evaluate the tourist attractions of Saint Sophia Church ：
@ Concept of Home Technology : The landmark scenic spot, Harbin Station, two stops to Habai, and then you can walk for a few minutes. There is also KFC next to it. Haha, I feel too cold, so I went to KFC to warm up, and then came out to take photos, buy tickets, visit, and take group photos. The ordinary ticket price is 20 yuan, and it is open at about 8 o'clock. The interior is full of exhibitions, which can understand the changes of Harbin and the history of the church, There is also an interpreter who will introduce that the interior has been preserved as it is, and it is said that it has hardly been repaired. You can feel the sacred and solemn atmosphere in it, especially when you stand under the main roof and look up, it is very beautiful! You can also see the portrait of the last dinner. It's almost the only obvious decoration. It won't take long to turn around, but you can still feel the history. It's good~
@ crocus sativus : This is also a landmark building in Harbin, just like the Great Wall in Beijing. If you don't visit it once, you will feel a little sorry in the future. However, this church has a long history. The ticket for the church is 20 yuan. The walls inside are surrounded by exhibition paintings, which record the history of the church in detail. For exotic customs, you can visit it.
@ Arthur Hehe : There are also Toulong Small Commodities Wholesale, Manhattan and Dashang Mall nearby, as well as Harbin First Hospital. Central Street and Flood Control Memorial Tower are nearby. It is the first choice for tourism, shopping, and tasting Harbin's special snacks. It is necessary to learn how to bargain, and cut the price by half. Good place
