Built with 4,000 cubic meters of snow, this icy giant rocks a stylish top hat and greets visitors with open arms and a cheerful thumbs-up. ❄️✋
The frosty ambassador is part of Harbin’s annual ice and snow festival, drawing adventurers and Instagrammers alike to China’s northeastern ‘Ice City.’ Locals say the sculpture symbolizes warmth in winter – literally and figuratively – as it invites travelers to experience jaw-dropping ice architecture, neon-lit snow parks, and subzero cultural adventures. 🌃❄️
