📌 Tips:
Aurora rarely appears only from September to November, requiring excellent weather + luck, don’t expect too much
Essential gear: thick down jacket, thermal underwear, snow boots, hat, scarf, gloves
Turn off your phone and stick a warm patch on it, or it will freeze and shut down instantly
Mohe has limited dining options, flavors tend to be salty, be mentally prepared

This Mohe trip under 1000 RMB is not romantic, it’s a hardcore experience!
It made me realize:
The meaning of some places is not about how beautiful the scenery is, but that you bravely went to the coldest place and saw the truest snow.
