The Ergun River forms part of the border between China and Russia. From the Chinese bank in Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia, visitors can look across the river to Russia, while a border river cruise from Shiwei offers a different perspective, allowing them to take in the scenery on both sides from the water.
