Ice Lantern and Sculpture Festival
The Harbin Ice Lantern and Sculpture Festival runs from January to March each year. Harbin is in Manchuria - the most northern part of China and just across the border from Russian Siberia.
Ice sculptures - made from blocks of ice chainsawed from the Songhua River - have represented such things as castles, towers, the Statue of Liberty, the Great Wall of China, and an onion-domed Russian church. The sculptures fill the city square and glow from the neon tubes of purple, pink, blue and green that shine from inside.
