Ice Sculptures in Harbin

Snow and Ice festivals have taken place in Harbin for decades, but the
2003 and 2005 festivals have topped all of the past years with amazing
artistry and magnificence in orginality and technique. Listed below is
the web site, where you can view some of these amazing works. What
stands out to me is the vastness of the project and the intricacy of the
design involved. Those who are photographers and artists will most
certainly be able to appreciate the dedication to excellence present in
these pieces of temporary artwork. Enjoy the web site and I hope that
you are able to gain even more appreciation for the culture and artistry
of the Chinese.

I just found out about this amazing ice festival! I saw pictures of the sculptures on the web while searching for lesson plan ideas. I am not sure if the "ice slide" is an annual entry, but that is one I would like to try!
