Mohe (Chinese: 漠河; pinyin: Mòhé) is a county-level city in Daxing'anling Prefecture, Heilongjiang province.Mohe, by virtue of its far northern location and proximity to Siberia, is one of the few locations in China with a bad subarctic climate (Köppen Dwc, Trewartha Ecbd),[5] closely bordering on extreme humid continental, with long, dry, severe winters, and short, warm, wet summers.The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −28.2 °C (−18.8 °F) in January to 18.3 °C (64.9 °F) in July, with an annual mean of −3.90 °C (25.0 °F), so that the city is only a little south of the line of continuous permafrost.[3] Per the census, members of 18 different ethnic groups live in Mohe, including the Han, the Manchu, Mongols, Koreans, the Sibe, the Oroqen, Evenks, and Russians.[16] 2 Formally part of Oroqen Banner in Inner Mongolia but administered de facto by Daxing'anling Prefecture in Heilongjiang.
