Introduction
I- Let me start out by very simple equation. What would you get if you add 7000 artists and workers with 180000 square meters of ice and 150000 square meters of snow? The result is fascinating.

1- Standing at a height of 16 meters
2- Present in the city for the past 3 years.
3- Each year with a different color.
The city has so many other replicas architectural master pieces, some of which I don’t even know.
Conclusion
I- I could stay forever talking about ice sculptures and showing you these colorful pictures. Instead I will share a quote by Grace Huang said “Icelandic church? Check. Great Wall of China? Check. Roman Colosseum? Check. Who said you can't be in three places at once?” This is possible if you visit the miniature city made out of ice in Harbin.

This city attracts millions of people despite its very low temperature, which is surely forgotten after seeing and experiencing what it has to offer you. Numerous activities are found in the city to keep you entertained and busy. The Flabbergasting and one of kind replicas are surely worthy of a visit.
III- So I advise you not to fear the cold, and try visiting this area to warm your heart with something you’ve never seen
