Step into Gongfu Shi Road and be transported to Harbin's golden era! Once the Far East's largest handicraft bazaar, this street dazzles with century-old Russian buildings blending seamlessly with traditional Chinese shops. The chime of watch repair shops and clinking of enamel artisans create a unique symphony. Come at dawn to witness masters carving amber with magnifying glasses - don't leave without a matryoshka doll or hand-stitched leatherwork. Pro tip: The Madar Ice Cream at the corner still serves 1920s recipes!
