There are numerous Ice Festivals around the globe where a person can view incredible sculptures all made from ice. But the Harbin Ice Festival in China stands out. Harbin is located in Manchuria where temperatures can reach -40F.

Ice Sculpture
Quite often, artists are told to think outside the box when it comes to creating. Ice is not an everyday medium and the conditions under which an artist must work to create can be, uhmm, quite frigid, to say the least!
There are numerous Ice Festivals around the globe where a person can view incredible sculptures all made from ice. But the Harbin Ice Festival in China stands out. Harbin is located in Manchuria where temperatures can reach -40F.

Just think of the amount of work and talent put into these temporary pieces of art!

Those sculptures are amazing. I would love to see them in person!
Aren't they amazing? We have a local ice sculpture contest here each year and even though some are awesome, they are miniatures compared to these!
Now that's a winter wonderland ! How beautiful they all are!
Wow! What a winter wonderland! These are so amazing!
We love ice sculptures up here in Canada too, but the Chinese always do everything big, big, bigger! What fabulous sculptures!

It makes me so incredibly sad that with warmer temperatures, these pieces will fade into the Earth.
But what stunners! I particularly like the first one...
