As one of the most popular destinations for snow and ice activities in China, Harbin gets more than its fair share of overseas and domestic tourists. However, its popularity as a tourist destination isn’t reflected in its accommodation options; at the time of writing, Harbin only has two youth hostels: Harbin Kazy International Youth Hostel and North International Youth Hostel. Not surprisingly, these two hostels have become a hotspot for backpackers and budget-conscious tourists.
