Ice Festival in Harbin

This festival in China is unlike anything you’ve seen before. The Harbin Snow and Ice Festival has been held in Harbin, China, since 1985. Each year, workers use blocks of ice from the Songhua River for artists to use as material for their #icesculptures. The result is a massive, sprawling city of life-sized ice sculptures that will truly make your jaw drop 🧊🤩 🎥 @cyncynti on IG📍The Harbin Ice & Snow Festival in China | Matador Network
