As ice and snow tourism booms in Harbin, the Ice and Snow World, one of the globe's largest winter-themed parks, demonstrates a commitment to preserving intangible cultural heritage while pursuing innovation.
The park's main structure, an ice sculpture named "Ice Lanterns Ignite Dreams", is built from 39,000 cubic meters of ice blocks.
Asked which is the most popular attraction, visitors often point to the super ice slides, which incorporate textures and designs inspired by the ramparts and beacon towers of the Great Wall.
Sliding down not only delivers high-speed excitement but also evokes a sense of the ancient structure’s majestic grandeur. This year, 24 such super ice slides have been constructed to meet an increased demand from visitors.
