The amazing chinese ice sculpture

Am not too sure if you guys knows about the ice sculpture in China, this is being held since 1963. The festival take place in a city called Harbin, the capital of heilongjiang. I never been to this festive before but to tell you all the truth the sculpture were pretty much good and awesome. These people were so much talented, i was so amaze with their works.


Below are the images of the workers preparing for the 2010 festival, by seeing the image you will know how talented they are and how fragile they are with the ice..awesome..truly awesome



Let me tell you a little history of this festival;Officially this festival starts from January onwards to February,However often the exhibitions open earlier and last longer, weather permitting, Ice sculpture decoration ranges from the modern technology of lasers. The Harbin festival is one of the world's four largest ice and snow festivals, along with Japan's Sapporo Snow FestivalCanada's Quebec City Winter Carnival, and Norway's Ski Festival







For our eyes to glimpse i have include the Norman Bethune ice sculpture image, the huge ice sculpture that has made a Guinness record back 2007. The sculptures long 250 metres long, 28 feet (8.5 m) high, using over 13,000 cubic meters of snow. Wondering if they will amaze us with another record for 2010? We have to wait...but whatever it is an awesome festival to be visit, definitely it is. So folks those whom were about to visit China in this holiday season make sure you will visit to their Ice city...
