For the 1st time in my life I have been to such a place,where everything is ice and everything is in ice.the festival featured giant pagodas, skyscrapers, an Egyptian Sphinx and even a full-scale Disney castle ,birds nest,colosseums and a lot more rendered entirely in ice.the event also offers a wide range of wintry activities, including ice swimming(in songjiang river), hot air ballooning and other sports, as well as a fireworks display.
At 6 AM they start shouting, yelling and selling the fresh catch.By an hour end almost all stuff is sold out.This whole show was very Chinese old style vendors selling and costumers equally loud and excited to bargain for deals. Was great to watch this show. The fishes , vegetables were fresh and mostly home grown,so naturally organic.
Saint Sophia Cathedral at Christmas time - mid winter. It was colder than minus 30 on this day. The Cathedral of the Holy Wisdom of God in Harbin, China. Built in 1907 and expanded from 1923-32, it was closed during the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution periods, and turned into a museum in 1997.
