The Harbin Ice and Snow World, a 600,000-square-meter wonderland, began its official run on Monday in Harbin, capital city of northeastern China's Heilongjiang province.
As an important part of Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival, the park has officially opened for the 21st consecutive year.
The park is built each winter with ice rather than commonly used construction materials.
More than 220,000 cubic meters of ice and snow have been put into use for the construction of the park this year.
In the park, tourists can enjoy 21 groups of ice and snow buildings including the 40-meter-high tower Crown of Ice and Snow .

The construction is blocks of ice and molded snow. This is an annual event, different every year, that I'm sorry I never got to see.
