Editor's Note:
On China's northernmost border of Heilongjiang Province sits the quiet village of Beihong, which sees temperatures dip below zero nearly seven months a year. However, tourists flurry to the area for a chance to experience its serene winter scenery, starry nights and, for the lucky, a glimpse of the Northern Lights.
