Combining the 2025 Asian Winter Games with the local culture of Heilongjiang and the charm of ice and snow, the 25th Harbin Ice and Snow World officially opened to tourists on Dec 18.
 
This year's Harbin Ice and Snow World covers a planned area of 810,000 square meters. It boasts the largest scale in its history, with over 250,000 cubic meters of ice and snow sculpted into over 1,000 captivating scenes.
 
It creates an enchanting ice and snow paradise encompassing ice and snow art, culture, performances, architecture, activities, and sports for visitors.
 
Here, you can get up close and personal with the tallest and largest ice structure in the park, the "Crown of Ice and Snow"; experience the profound heritage of Harbin's ice and snow culture through the immersive "Ice and Snow Journey," feel the allure of the "City of Music" as you play the ice piano, and marvel at the breathtaking views from the observation deck.
   
One must not miss the awe-inspiring "Dance in the Sky," the first-ever 3D composite ice masterpiece in the winter wonderland.
 
Upon first glance, it resembles a three-story structure of six hexagonal petals of varying sizes. It creates an otherworldly utopia illuminated by surrounding lights reminiscent of the planet Pandora from "Avatar."
 
The "Harbin Ice Show" is another highlight, as it brings together over 50 artists from 12 countries to present visitors with a visually spectacular international extravaganza.
 
Additionally, the wonderland offers diverse entertainment options, including super ice slides, snow drifting, snow tubing, snow off-road vehicles, and ice karting.
