Attention, friends visiting Harbin from southern China! It’s said that 30% of your body heat escapes from your head in Harbin, and this is no exaggeration—standing outside in freezing weather, a numb head can’t be saved even by the thickest down jacket! Today we’re sharing the golden matching rules for head warmth, so you can stay cozy while exploring the Ice City.
Choose the Right Hat to Keep Cold Wind Out
Southern friends coming to Northeast China, skip those thin knit hats—opt for styles that cover your ears and the back of your head! Fleece-lined or fur-trimmed styles work best; otherwise, your ears will ache from the cold, and you’ll be huddling them in your arms every ten minutes. Ice City Warm Sun offers brand-new cotton hats for sale, or you can rent a matching package—our five-piece set includes a cotton hat, which is convenient and cost-effective. If your rented down jacket doesn’t fit, you can swap the hat when exchanging sizes; we offer free on-site exchanges within the same city, so no hassle.
Pick the Right Face Mask for Warmth on Your Face, Nose and Mouth
Many people think a regular mask is enough, but Harbin’s cold wind can freeze the tip of your nose solid—you need a winter face mask that covers most of your face. Avoid overly thick ones that make breathing difficult, and too-thin ones that will freeze through before you reach your destination. If you purchase a heat patch package and wear it with your face mask, your nose and cheeks will stay warm for a long time—you can stroll Central Street or visit the Ice and Snow World without your face turning bright red from cold.
The Golden Matching for All-Over Warmth
The correct combination is: a hat covering your head and ears, a face mask covering your cheeks, nose and mouth, plus a scarf to wrap your neck tightly. This way, cold wind has nowhere to get in. Don’t just buy hats and face masks separately—opt for a package, like our twelve-piece set, which includes all these brand-new small items, so you don’t have to source them yourself. Ice City Warm Sun’s packages are also charged by the hour, which is more cost-effective than renting for the whole day—you only pay for the days you play, making it hassle-free and budget-friendly.
Helpful Reminders
If your rented hat or face mask doesn’t fit, contact customer service for an exchange—we offer free on-site exchanges in Harbin’s five districts. If you’re in a hurry, you can use a same-city errand service, but you’ll need to cover the delivery fee. Also, for items purchased, you can exchange them as long as they’re unworn and have intact tags—we trust you, so no need to worry too much. If you’re unsure about sizes, ask customer service for help; tell them your height and weight, and they’ll recommend the right fit. They’ve served many southern tourists, so they know exactly what works for warmth.
When visiting Harbin, don’t let a cold head hold you back. Choose the right hat and face mask, plus Ice City Warm Sun’s services, and you can explore the entire Ice City while staying cozy. Enjoy the beauty of Ice and Snow World and try all the local specialties like Harbin sausage and guobaorou! Reach out to customer service anytime—we’re always here to help.
