The 25th Harbin Ice and Snow World, a winter amusement park in Harbin, recently entered its comprehensive construction phase.
 
The main tower dubbed "Crown of Ice and Snow" is a landmark of the park. With its exquisite design and ingenious ice sculpture techniques, it will showcase the unique charm and unlimited creativity of the park to people from all over the world.
 
According to the construction personnel, the "Crown of Ice and Snow" is crafted entirely by ice sculptors who work at heights of dozens of meters above the ground in extremely cold conditions, polishing with chisels and knives, and embodying the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the park's master artisans.
 
The main tower has a total ice volume of 13,000 cubic meters and is located on the central axis of the park. It has an overall height of 43 meters, equivalent to a 14-story building, making it the highest and largest single ice landscape in the park.
 
The main tower employs a full-color variable lighting control system, making it majestic and crystal-clear during the day, and shimmering with colorful brilliance and dazzling splendor at night.
 
At present, the construction progress of the main tower has reached 50 percent.
