Harbin, China's Ice City, is BIGGER THAN EVER! (Harbin Ice Festival) ❄️🇨🇳

[@arafsadventures]

I’ve lived in China for 6 years and I didn’t know this place existed 😮 China always surprises me with its hidden gems 😁😁😁

[@dxJ-qt2th]

Harbin Ice and Snow World International Ice and Snow Festival has been held for more than 30 years. Harbin is completely different. Central Street and Xuexiang are beautiful fairy tale worlds. That is my hometown, too.

[@zh3863]

冰雪大世界去年爆火了，在这之前很多南方的中国人也不知道它的存在😂

[@shuangleng5479]

Probably you don't connect with local people much when you live in China! Harbin Is super popular city to travel in winter time, especially from last year

[@dxJ-qt2th]

@@zh3863 在这之前冰雪大世界连续多年亏损，里面冷冷清清的，就几个本地人在里面闲逛。现在火了，本地人都被边缘化了。

[@eevveevv]

China is massive and huge. Need a whole life time to explore

[@oscarchung1]

I hesitated when my friend invited me to this festival 6 years ago because I was busy working in Taipei and wondered whether I could do well in such cold weather. I went anyway and now I have to say I'm glad I made the right decision. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. So beautiful!

[@TravelinChina]

It sounds like you made the right call! It's definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

當世界充滿悲情的時侯，只有中國是充滿激情的！加油中國人！

[@tookatuktuk]

I like the snow carvings and the ice block sculptures were so beautiful glistening in the sun!

[@petercua6158]

Just incredible to see those ice sculptures. And also your potato clothes is also astounding noticeable by many.

[@TravelinChina]

It’s freezing cold, but worth it! And the potato outfit is superb, even if I say so myself.

[@melc6317]

Thanks for showing us this amazing ice festival. The ice city is so magical. All the ice sculptures are masterpieces.

[@TravelinChina]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@dchang3838]

This Ice and Snow World is AMAZING, INCREDIBLE !!!!!

[@ShukLingChan-i1i]

I like your potato suit 😆🤭 Have fun in Harbin🤗🥳

[@likeakittie]

Oh my! That’s absolutely beautiful! I would love to visit one day! Thank you for sharing with us about this amazing place!

[@TravelinChina]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's truly a magical place!

[@zhongguono1]

[@lucywang1316]

[@TravelinChina]

Thank you 😁

[@mayho5816]

哈爾濱的冰雪世界真是精雕細琢 美不勝收 司徒你是英國小土豆竟然還怕冷啊！謝謝你拍了這麼美的冰雕展覽❤️❤️❤️

[@cbdgummy1300]

冷知识：哈尔滨比莫斯科冷。

[@mountchan1139]

英国和四川天气差不多

[@angieng5279]

Dry snow creaking, squeezing sound under feet each step taken remind me of college time in 1970s walking at night to University of Wisconsin Madison computer center to run the computer program in punched cards!

[@TravelinChina]

Such a lovely sound, isn't it.

[@catefu3576]

開心的大土豆🥔😂

[@AnnieT369]

Amazing sculptures.

[@gerardine3063]

Ho merci cher Monsieur, merci les technologies, j’ai 90 ans, chez moi au chaud, je vois cette merveille ignore de. 99% de la population mondiale, l’humain est génial il suffit de le laisser libre alors il fait des miracles. Que Dieu vous bénisse cher Monsieur, de nous permettre de voir ces merveilles 🙏🏼👏🏼😘

[@forestsenlin]

谢谢司徒建国的分享👍👍👍❤❤❤

[@BryanCheong]

I once went to the arctic circle in winter thinking my usual winter-wear would be fine. Rented a Canada Goose jacket from my hotel on day one.

[@TravelinChina]

It's definitely not a casual walk in the park.

[@namelesswarrior4760]

Happy New to you. You crazy man.

[@戢鎮海]

Haha, funny dressing, I like it😊

[@TravelinChina]

Glad you like it!

[@ExpatNatt]

I’m still not brave enough to visit Harbin in winter. I can barely handle the temperature in Shanghai let alone up north! Maybe one year I’ll be brave enough to 😅 Thanks for sharing, I’ll live vicariously through you 😂 Happy New Year to you and your family ❤

[@TravelinChina]

It only took me 17 years to work up the courage

[@ExpatNatt]

@ 😂😂 maybe in another 10 years I’ll visit. Slowly need to acclimatize to the cold first, maybe I should sit in the freezer as practice 🤔

[@TravelinChina]

And Happy New Year!

[@散仙-v9s]

你可以把自己想象成南极企鹅

[@PeterSzeto-es6em]

Lucky you! Wish that I could be there one day ...

[@TravelinChina]

Hope you get the chance one day Peter

[@shawnhu]

2:00 country's national dress 😂😂😂

[@黄冠-s5k]

Harbin is the most popular cold city during this time period...

[@李忠-i7b]

赞👍 喜欢❤

[@baatarbeifong7869]

The Temple of Heaven and Macau church ruins ice sculptures and all of the snow sculptures at the end looked amazing! I wonder if anything is sprayed over the snow sculptures to protect them like people do with sand sculptures~

[@TravelinChina]

They spray the sand sculptures with water, I think, to make them firm. Didn't see anyone spraying the ice. In fact, the reunification monument from Golden Bauhinia Sq actually looked like it was melting. Obviously, it wasn't because it was still below freezing. Maybe an optical illusion.

[@Alonebe]

Love potato chips ! Just fry it ! ^^

[@Khalistan_Zindabaddd]

French Fries with Gravy 😂

[@LDD1012-Leo]

My hometown is Harbin, but I am studying in the United States now. Harbin is really a good city. I recommend everyone to visit it.🎉

[@bulldogfightingforfreedom]

Xiamen is like Hawaii , Harbin is like twice colder than in Winterfell, game of thrones..

[@lanma3746]

thank you very much for your videos 👍🏻 🎉❤

[@jurrasicpig2426]

OMG, you can't go straight from Xiamen to Harbin, you will need some buffering area, like Shanghai or Qingdao (or anywhere in the middle as long as there is great food)

[@JKShorts888]

Amazing 👍✌️❤️😘

[@TravelinChina]

Glad you liked it

[@finalkamen]

Bravo, Szetu! Although Harbin had became so "hot" during this year end season, but its indeed a challenge for little potato like me from southern to enjoy such a trip, under such extremely low temperature 😅🥶

[@TravelinChina]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope you can wear your potato costume soon!

[@sophiamerrifieldw7967]

Hahaha😂😂😂You need to cover your face, too, for that cold. But then your fans couldn't recognise you.

[@PM-uz8zj]

好可爱土豆装 🥔🤍❄️🧊

[@SanSan-qn2bx]

Btw the Snow carnival at Songhua River is amazing and more affordable! I spent 50 rmb at the slide, with unlimited attempt! So much fun😂

[@TravelinChina]

Wow, that sounds amazing! It looks like I need to add that to my list for my next trip to Harbin!

[@xiangyangzhang2286]

Potato suit, superstar🤣

[@求神不如拜吾]

😮😮😮

[@SanSan-qn2bx]

I was there last night with my husband and brother in-law. We couldnt get the tickets for the super slides😢.

[@TravelinChina]

Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. The slides look like so much fun! I didn't get to ride them either.

[@marcsong2386]

说实话，这个土豆装，应该挺保温的

[@Oldbrow]

你应该是英国游过来的大鱼排吧！😂😂😂

[@Alex_k_Q]

Pffff hahahahaha yeah saw you in Wilko’s video didn’t expect that was you 😂😂😂😂

[@weike3062]

哈哈

[@yichen-ti6vv]

我老家也是北方，但是最冷也就-10℃

[@jeffreysetapak]

Potatoes are a kind of fruit??? I thought it's a kind of legume.

[@TravelinChina]

I think I was talking rubbish.

[@CCMphilip]

You dress up TOO much and you will sweat ! When I was doing my undergrad in Canada (temp at -30 degree C) I only put on a pair of jean, a T-shirt and a ski-jacket plus woolen socks and running shoe !!! And I still sweat !!!!

[@Obama0yes]

TAILENGLE

[@Gobi-Mala]

司徒，你太夸张了，没这么冷，我冬天在广州穿的和去哈尔滨也差不多穿，除了不穿凉拖鞋，只是200g的羽绒服换成了400g，加一条秋裤就行了

[@jurrasicpig2426]

想看大一被土豆狠狠欺负哈哈哈哈哈

[@shirleytang1383]

洋土豆

[@paulo9507]

Ottawa in Canada has Winterlude and is similar to this.

[@TravelinChina]

Cool, I've never heard about that. Searching videos right now.

[@YouSmile-ox8vg]

It is said that the one in Canada is much smaller. Completely different scale.

[@aalex90]

韩国大一的父母不是在中国吗？他怎么一个跑哈尔滨玩了

[@paulo9507]

You dressed too much. Just need to wear a face cover for your face.

[@amelieyvan1570]

太棒了👍

[@土馒头]

厉害👍

[@GamerBoy-rw4zp]

Hello Mr. Potato 😊

[@王晏汝-c7l]

謝謝最棒的分享 英國大土豆😂

[@binxie7779]

🫢👍😍💐 can't find a word for it

[@TravelinChina]

I think I used the word incredible a bit too much 😁
