Built in 1958 to commemorate the successful defense against the 1957 Songhua River flood. The 22.5-meter-tall tower features a circular platform with relief sculptures. It marks the northern end of Central Avenue and is a popular spot for riverside views.

江畔公园 Jiāngpàngōngyuán
Long tree covered walkway that stretches the city-side banks of the Songhua river, a really nice and pleasant walk.
兆麟公园 Zhàolíngōngyuán
During the winter this park houses ice sculptures for the festivals, but during the off season, it is a pleasant stroll as well.
A nice way to work your way back from Sun Island in a gondola car that takes you over the banks of the Songhua.
Built in 1900, this bridge was the first bridge across the Songhua river in Harbin and has served the railway system for more than 100 years. In 2016, with the opening of a new bridge nearby, it was converted into a pedestrian bridge for visitors.
哈尔滨犹太新会堂 Hā'ěrbīn Yóutài Xīnhuìtáng
Has been restored and contains an impressive collection detailing the history of Jews in Harbin. There were 20,000 at one point and the synagogue is well worth a visit. Further up Tong Jiang Jie is the old synagogue that is now a youth hostel and cafe, with the old Jewish school next door -both worth a detour to look at from the outside.
