📸Photo spots in the park
• Ice version of Harbin Railway Station
This main gate is a replica based on the classic silhouette of the old Harbin Railway Station, showcasing the city's profound cultural heritage. The clear texture of the ice adorns the northern winter, becoming a city landmark that blends memory and aesthetics.
• Wuhan Yellow Crane Tower
The ice sculpture is as tall as a five-story building, essentially restoring the shape of the Yellow Crane Tower with exquisite details and magnificent momentum. It perfectly integrates the famous southern tower with the northern ice and snow, creating a unique and stunning view.
• "Fairytale Pony Family"
To welcome the Year of the Horse, the park created this fairytale snow sculpture in line with the "Ice and Snow Fairytale World" theme. A family of four was carved based on visitor suggestions. This snow sculpture is located outside the south ticketing and check-in hall. The bright colors of the decorations bring the pony family to life. The sculptors also added blessings like "Prosperity," "Success," "Happiness," and "Joy" on the giant saddle, along with specially made colorful gift boxes and gold ingot gift boxes, full of creativity.
• "Fairytale Snowman Family"
This snow sculpture is located outside the east check-in hall. It is 15 meters high and uses nearly 4,000 cubic meters of snow. The snowman father is steady, the snowman mother is gentle, and the snowman baby is playful. The family of three, wearing hats and scarves, looks festive, warm, and lovely. They are the "welcoming pioneers" of this year's Ice and Snow World. Visitors heading to Snow Scenery Street or taking the subway to Exit 3 of the Ice and Snow World station can take photos with them without needing to buy a ticket to enter the park, easily creating beautiful winter memories. Additionally, the "Fairytale Pony Family" snow sculpture is available for photos outside the south ticketing and check-in hall.
• "Ice" Terracotta Warriors
The Ice and Snow World presents a 1:1 scale "Ice" Terracotta Warrior landscape. These "ice" warriors are lifelike and majestic, as if they have traveled through a thousand years, offering visitors a visual feast.
• Ice Train
The ice train here is not only exquisitely shaped, replicating the appearance of a real train, but it also surprisingly blows steam with a "choo-choo" sound, as if bringing a fairytale scene to life.
• Major National Achievements Area
In this scenic area, there is an ice sculpture 8 meters high and 43 meters long, carved from 2,000 cubic meters of ice, accurately replicating the silhouette of the Fujian aircraft carrier. In addition to the Fujian, this area also features replicas of other national achievements such as the Kuaizhou series carrier rockets, the Jiaolong submersible, and the "Julang-3" submarine-launched intercontinental missile.
