On the big kang in the northeast, I experienced a confrontation with the south, a contest between temperature and comfort. Last week, a group of friends and I packed our bags and rushed to Harbin, where we embarked on an adventure to the snow town, this time not only for the scenery, but also for an in-depth experience of the magic of the Northeast Kang.
The big kang in the Northeast is known as the artifact of winter, and many people in the Northeast can't do without it during the winter. In this cold season, sitting on a warm kang makes people feel an indescribable comfort. However, after experiencing it firsthand, I realized that there is a double-edged sword hidden behind this comfort.
On the first night, the big kang at the inn we stayed in was unbearably hot. I have to admit that it was really warm to sit on it at first, but gradually, not only my butt but also my back felt like it was on fire. I tried to remove the quilt from my body, but it still felt unusually hot. After leaving the big kang, the severe cold outside made me feel the extreme of the **double heavens. Southerners may be incomprehensible, but here, the temperature difference makes people shiver.
Due to the itinerary the next day, we could only endure the high temperature of the big kang. However, we barely managed to sleep that night. As a result, when they woke up on the third day, the three of them had a cold and a fever, and the originally beautiful trip turned into a hurried escape because of the high temperature of the big kang.
In addition to the high temperatures, we also noticed poor ventilation in the inn. The way the kang is heated causes the room to be unusually stuffy and unbreathable. This makes me wonder, can everyone adapt to this high temperature in the winter in the Northeast?
I've seen some comments on the Internet, and some people say that this is a feature of the Northeast. Although it is understandable, I think that such a high temperature is unbearable even for people in Tohoku. Perhaps, it would be a better choice if the temperature of the kang could be adjusted to make it more comfortable for people to sleep.
On this trip to the Northeast, although we were troubled by the unique characteristics of Dakang, we also discovered the charm of the hospitality and food of the Northeast people. No matter which inn we are in, whenever we have a problem, the store is always enthusiastic to help us solve it. This kind of hospitable attitude is rare in the South.
In addition, we were also impressed by the cuisine of Tohoku. From the barbecue in Harbin to the frozen tofu in the snow town, every dish is unforgettable. In particular, the frozen tofu has a delicious taste and an endless aftertaste.
This trip to the Northeast has benefited me a lot. Although the high temperature and ventilation problems of Dakang caused us trouble, we also felt the hospitality of the Northeast people and the unique charm of the food. I hope to have more experience summed up next time and embark on this magical trip to the Northeast again.
At the end of this report, I would like to remind friends who are planning to go to the Northeast to understand the local climate and accommodation conditions in advance, and do not set off in a hurry like us, so as not to encounter some unexpected troubles in addition to the beautiful scenery. Risking a cold and fever to travel is indeed a terrible experience.
