In fact, entire Northeast region is a multinational confluence. During Qing Dynasty, many people immigrated from south when they entered Guangdong. But Harbin has a unique geographical advantage, being very close to Russia. Therefore, Harbin received not only many settlers from south who came to Guangdong, but also many Russians and even Europeans who came here to live.

However, sustainable development of city cannot depend only on railways. In later period, when all cities were being converted from heavy industry, Harbin's progress has been somewhat slow and has not kept up with progress. Economic growth began to slow down. lagging behind other cities. As provincial capital, very unfortunate.

However, Harbin is also actively looking for a way out, starting to use its regional characteristics, playing title of an ice city, and start developing tourism, using tourism to boost economic growth.
