My friend Suzanne brought this extraordinary
event, The Harbin Ice & Snow Festival
to my attention. If you are not already
aware, I hope you will enjoy!
People look at giant ice sculptures at the Ice and Snow World Park in
Harbin, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province.
Over 50 million yuan and 100,000 cubic meters of ice were consumed there for the sculptures of the 25th Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival which started on Monday Jan 5, 2009.
Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang province, is one of the country's coldest places.
