Only a stone's throw from Russia, and offering a wide array of nesting dolls, Haerbin is famous for its creative use of ice and snow. With winds from Siberia bringing temperatures down around -30C, winter is their time to shine, as long as you have three or more pairs of socks in your bag. The festival themes this year were France (snow festival) and the Olympics (ice festival).
