Default Harbin Ice and Snow Festival
These images are amazing

Quote:
These pictures show an enormous frozen castle - built entirely from ice - created for the 30th Harbin Ice and Snow Festival.

The remarkable tower, which is at least 26 metres high and measures around 20 storeys, is one of the main attractions at the festival - which sees thousands of tourists flock to the city of Harbin, near the China and Russian border, every year.







And below, giant snow carvings loom over some early visitors to the festival

Because we don't get snow and ice, just rain and lots of it
