❄️ Imagine a frozen river turning into a giant ice block bank! On December 7, Harbin crews jumped into action, slicing 'tofu blocks' of crystal-clear ice from the Songhua River for the 27th Harbin Ice-Snow World.
Each day, nearly 1,000 workers brave the cold to cut and load up to 10,000 cubic meters of ice. The harvest drive is scheduled to run for over a month, supplying sculptors with the raw material they need to craft the festival's legendary ice palaces, slides, and art installations.
Harbin Ice-Snow World draws visitors from around the world. This year, organizers promise even bigger and bolder designs, from neon-lit ice castles to interactive ice bars. Whether you're a traveler seeking winter thrills or a culture lover enamored with vibrant art, the festival is set to dazzle.
Stay tuned as we bring you updates on the coolest showcase of winter creativity! 🧊✨
