Harbin is the capital of Heilongjiang Provence in Northern China. Popularly called The Ice City. And here, presenting to you pictures of my visit to the city.

In winter, daytime in Harbin is about 8 hours, from 7am to 3-4pm. Then it gets dark. The streets of the city is decorated with many beautiful carvings made on Ice. 13 Likes

Frozen Lake Amusement Park. Free entry into the park but you pay for entertainment. The 3rd and 4th pictures are pictures of the (SongJiang) lake. It freezes complete during the winter and it is converted temporarily to an amusement park. 9 Likes

Dressing and Food. Wear as much as clothes as possible, also warm hat, scarf, thick gloves, socks, shoes. For me, I wore 2 pairs of woolen socks, 3 pants, four tops(inner long-sleeve tuttle neck vest, 2 sweaters and a down coat). For your shoes, it should be skidproof because in Harbin there is much ice on the road. Then put a warming pad on in your socks. I still felt cold anyway. My fingers were red and sore. Harbin is cold 57 Likes 5 Shares

#Sth interesting about Harbin☃ ![]() There is a very special phenomenon---in winter, people don't need a refrigerator to store their goods. Instead, they put everything outdoors--as a natural refrigerator. Also if you walk on the street in winter night of Harbin, you will see frozen popsicles, ice cream, persimmons and all kinds of food sold there and they taste really nice! 32 Likes 1 Share

That's my person! I've never been to Harbin. Having transversed the length and breadth of this large country, Harbin is one of the frontiers I'm yet to visit. Would have loved to visit this winter but wifey thought the weather would be too extreme for our daughter. I'm longing for the breathtaking experience of Harbin! 59 Likes 3 Shares |

sassysure:Thanks jare, this is what baffles me most about such events. What is ice? Water! Just water! And they are cashing out on it big time. Imagine making 18k from 300,000 visitors, Jeeez! ![]() Also, do you know that in summer, early enough, they make casts of these castles, pass neon decorative lights through the casts and wait for summer cold, so that snow will fall and form shapes!
