I saw first hand how the snow sculptures are made from massive blocks of snow and talented people slowly carving away. And of course I had to say hi to the massive Snowman - Mr Snowman.
We then went to Saint Sophia's Church - a former Russian Orthodox church.
Then onto the longest walking street in Asia - Central Street or Zhongyang Street (中央大街) which is 1.450 meters long.
I tried the famous Ice sucker (Ice Cream) which was super tasty and only 5 Yuan. I also tried the candied fruit skewers known as Tanghulu (糖葫芦)
