❄️ China will expand the world’s largest ice park to 1.25 million square meters

Preparations have begun in the Chinese city of Harbin for the large-scale expansion of the famous Harbin Ice-Snow World park. In the coming winter season, its area will reach a record 1.25 million square meters, and around 400,000 cubic meters of ice and snow will be needed to build ice palaces, towers, sculptures and other structures. More than a thousand ice installations are set to be created on the complex’s grounds.

The park will be divided into six themed zones combining ice architecture, entertainment, theatrical performances and sporting competitions. Visitors can expect revamped ice towers, interactive areas, as well as ice hockey and curling tournaments. The complex’s popularity continues to grow: In February, it set a visitor record, welcoming more than 120,000 guests in a single day. China expects to increase the national winter tourism and entertainment industry to 1.5 trillion yuan by 2030.

Harbin is transforming the harsh northern winter into one of its most important tourism resources. The large-scale construction of ice structures is not only an urban tradition but also an industry in its own right, attracting millions of tourists and creating jobs.
