  • Harbin, otherwise known as 'The Ice City'. What an amazing place, I was lucky enough to spend Chinese New Year exploring the city. Here is what I got up to, including a visit to the INCREDIBLE Ice and Snow Festival!!!

    Now you start to appreciate how the Chinese government can generate that much energy to heat all those homes and still be affordable to ordinary Chinese. Just take the energy cost in the UK now as an example and you will shake your head !

      I was amazed to find out that whole apartments in dongbei are centrally heated for 8 months a year, and they stay at a particular temperature without turning off! Pretty crazy 😳

      Don't get me stared on UK energy prices 😂 especially now that oil prices have fallen yet companies still charge excessive amounts. No wonder energy companies are reporting record profits

    The ice sculptures are very beautiful, to think the entire ice city is built in 3-4 weeks then it begins to melt away late March.(that's a quick search online)
    I think I saw one bottle of vodka for $18 AUD, that's very inexpensive. It was so good watching everyone enjoying themselves.
