Harbin e-commerce fuels cross-border trade surge

Harbin is not only the capital of border province Heilongjiang - it is also at the frontier of an online sales boom between China and Russia.

It is home to several new e-commerce websites including DHgate, foxmall and Come365.

An e-commerce website that sells cell phones and tablet computers to Russian buyers, foxmall was jointly launched by 23 Guangdong-based companies at the end of last year.
