Surprising food products from Northeast China

Many Chinese people have recently been surprised to find that many types of food they thought were imported are actually grown or produced in Northeast China.

The northeastern region of the country has been attracting a huge amount of attention this winter, with visitors flocking to its tourist attractions in search of ice and snow, and praising the hospitality of its people.

To show its gratitude to the people of Heilongjiang for taking good care of a group of 11 kindergarten children from South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region during their visit to the northeastern province, Nanning, the regional capital of Guangxi, sent 189 tons of mandarins to Harbin, Heilongjiang's provincial capital. Heilongjiang then returned the gesture and sent 100,000 boxes of cranberries to Guangxi.
