Travel China: Manzhouli, Inner Mongolia
Manzhouli is a city in Inner Mongolia, China. It's near the border of Russia and Mongolia. I visited in winter, when day-time temperatures were around -26 Celsius (-14 Faherenheit). It seems like it's in the middle of nowhere but actually it's only a 21/2-hour flight from Beijing.

STORYLINE
The Amur River forms the border between China and Russia in Russia's Far East. Although a mere 600 metres separates the two sides they couldn't be more different. The booming Chinese city of Heihe and its poor sister across the river, Blagoveshchensk, Russia, provide a stark example of the recent economic fortunes of the two countries.

Chinese border town thriving on Russian trade
The fact Chinese President Xi Jingping chose Russia as his first foreign visit is no surprise to some. The two countries have been strengthening ties for many years.
Tourism's growing, there's talk of increasing energy cooperation, and in 2011 trade volume between the two topped 80 billion dollars, a figure expected to double in a few years.
North China's Heihe city is literally at the front line of this cross border trade. Bordering Russia's Far Eastern city of Blagoveshchensk, the fast growing town is building its economy on Beijing's newfound love for Moscow.

Chinese migrants inundate Russia's Far East
In Central Russia, there are many migrants from Asian republics of the former Soviet Union. In the Far East of the country, the Russians can feel the short distance to China and Korea. Many Chinese nationals migrate to Russia to work and do business there. In the Far East of Russia, Chinese goods are in demand most. They are widely known for their low prices and good quality. Besides, it's also cheap labor. Many experts compare such changes with colonization.
Andrei Konyushok, Associate Professor, Department of Economics of the Blagoveshchensk University:
Along the border there are not many checkpoints. According to Russian entrepreneurs, border guards stick to tough rules. Quite on the contrary, there is the process going on to contain tourism in Russia at the expense of consumer brutality towards the Chinese. Migration services count each and everyone of them. Governors limit the quota to all entrepreneurs to invite foreign workers from China. In Russia's Amur region, for example, the governor banned the employment of Chinese nationals for all local farmers.
However, tightening border regulations is not such big of a deal. There are other regions of the country, where migrants can go. And, if tourism is on the decline, what stands behind the growth of air communication between Beijing and the Far East of Russia?
Andrew Konyushok :
The living conditions in China makes people resort to all sorts of tricks including illegal ones, in order to stay in Russia and make more money. They are generally very risky people - either from poverty, or from their nature. For them, losing two thousand dollars is not fatal at all, They are risky smugglers. So we often hear reports about the attempts to smuggle goods from China to Russia.
In general, migration policy requires a lot of attention in all regions of Russia. Otherwise, the wish to reduce the inflow of migrants would look like an attempt to hold water in a broken glass.
Sino-Russian border trade suffers from falling ruble
Influenced by a falling ruble, Sino-Russian border trade and tourism is now facing a sharp decline. The number of Russian tourists traveling to China has decreased and import and export volumes have also dropped.
