Top Things to Do in Harbin Ice and Snow World (What's New in 2026)
The 2025-2026 Harbin Ice and Snow World takes "A Snowy Fairytale Land" as its central theme, weaving together
urban heritage, ice-snow art, and diverse cultures. As an amusement park themed with ice and snow, it will give
you far more than you can
imagine.
Admiring Gorgeous, Exquisite Ice and Snow Structures
As you enter orld, you will be amazed by such a wonder-like park made from blocks of ice and snow.
These sculptures are often
record-breaking in size
. Some structures are over three
stories high and show very intricate designs, while the iconic central tower reaches more than 14
stories high this year. The scenery in front of you is so
mind-blowing
and visually magnificent
, making a highlight of your China trip during winter.
Arrive at the park before sunset and you will get an opportunity to observe the ice structures clearly before
they are lit. Impressive as they are during the daytime, at night they become magic. The
multicolored
lights
embedded in the ground illuminate the ice structures, showing a completely different colorful
dimension. These light illuminations of the ice add a surreal kaleidoscope of color to northeastern
China's bitter winters. Against the dark night sky, the bright and dazzling lights look more
astonishing.

so on.

521-meter-long ice slide
and 320-meter-long ice slide
are the enthusiasm
of the
players, by
which will give you a feeling
of speed and passion. Access is restricted to visitors aged 15-60 and at least 1.6 meters tall. But don't worry

The 38th **Sun Island International Snow Sculpture Art Expo** concluded operations at 17:00 on February 26, **marking the end of the major events of this yearâs Harbin Ice and Snow Festival**.

### How to Get Around Harbin Ice and Snow World
Most visitors opt to walk leisurely through Harbin Ice and Snow World while capturing beautiful shots along the way. If you travel with your children, **renting a tractable snow tube** is an absolute must-do! Designed for easy handling, these tubes let you pull your kids smoothly across the park's wide, flat areasâno need to worry about rough terrain or steep slopes. The rental fee for one snow tube is just around CNY 50. It's not just convenient, but super fun too\!

## Warm Tips for Your Travel in Harbin Ice and Snow World
1\. **Clothing Ideas:** Keep yourself warm while touring in Harbin. For outdoor activities, bundle up in multiple warm layers that you can take some off when you're indoors. If you are not from cold places, your regular winter gear may not suffice, so you could buy or rent down jackets in Harbin. Remember to wear thick gloves (the kind that let you use your phone!), a hat, a scarf and a warm, breathable mask to stay cozy\!
2\. **Slip Prevention Tips:** Wear comfortable, non-slip snow boots, or buy ice cleats in Harbin to attach them to your footwear. Please watch out for icy and slippery surfaces to prevent slips and falls.
3\. **High-Risk Activity Safety:** While you have some winter activities with a little risk like skiing, you should listen to your coach and keep yourself safe.
4\. **Electronics Protection:** For outdoor activities, carry heating pads or similar gear to keep your camera, phone, and other electronics warm and powered. Pack extra batteries for your camera and multiple power banks as backups.
5\. **Frostbite Prevention & Relief:** If you get too cold outside, go back to the indoor halls to warm up. In case of accidental frostbite, do not warm the affected area with hot water but ask for help from doctors.
6\. **Sunscreen Reminder:** Wear sunscreen as Harbin has strong ultraviolet rays in winters.
7\. **Snow Blindness Prevention:** Bring sunglasses in case of snow blindness.

Can i rent good wheelchair and someone to go with me through the place
2026-01-29 04:43
Dear KR,
Glad to hear from you\!
After checking with the attraction, we can confirm that Harbin Ice and Snow World does not provide wheelchair rental services, but visitors are allowed to bring their own wheelchairs into the park.
There are snow tube rental points inside Ice and Snow World. If you are traveling with companions, they can pull the snow tube and accompany you around the park.
For greater convenience, we would recommend Sun Island Snow Sculpture Expo instead. According to the latest official information, wheelchair rental services are available at Sun Island, and sightseeing shuttle vehicles operate within the park, making it more accessible for visitors with mobility needs.
We hope the information above is helpful to you.

Hi Natalia, the opening date of Ice and Snow World is not fixed. It depends on weather and construction progress. Last year, the Ice and Snow World was open from 21st December, and closed on 26th February. The Ice and Snow Festival usually starts annually from 5th January. If possible, try to schedule your holiday in January.

Some structures are over three stories high and show very intricate designs, while the iconic central tower reaches more than 14 stories high this year. The scenery in front of you is so **mind-blowing and visually magnificent**, making a highlight of your China trip during winter.
Arrive at the park before sunset and you will get an opportunity to observe the ice structures clearly before they are lit. Impressive as they are during the daytime, at night they become magic. The **multicolored lights** embedded in the ground illuminate the ice structures, showing a completely different colorful dimension. These light illuminations of the ice add a surreal kaleidoscope of color to northeastern China's bitter winters. Against the dark night sky, the bright and dazzling lights look more astonishing.

## Warm Tips for Your Travel in Harbin Ice and Snow World
1\. **Clothing Ideas:** Keep yourself warm while touring in Harbin. For outdoor activities, bundle up in multiple warm layers that you can take some off when you're indoors. If you are not from cold places, your regular winter gear may not suffice, so you could buy or rent down jackets in Harbin. Remember to wear thick gloves (the kind that let you use your phone!), a hat, a scarf and a warm, breathable mask to stay cozy\!
2\. **Slip Prevention Tips:** Wear comfortable, non-slip snow boots, or buy ice cleats in Harbin to attach them to your footwear. Please watch out for icy and slippery surfaces to prevent slips and falls.
3\. **High-Risk Activity Safety:** While you have some winter activities with a little risk like skiing, you should listen to your coach and keep yourself safe.
4\. **Electronics Protection:** For outdoor activities, carry heating pads or similar gear to keep your camera, phone, and other electronics warm and powered. Pack extra batteries for your camera and multiple power banks as backups.
5\. **Frostbite Prevention & Relief:** If you get too cold outside, go back to the indoor halls to warm up. In case of accidental frostbite, do not warm the affected area with hot water but ask for help from doctors.
6\. **Sunscreen Reminder:** Wear sunscreen as Harbin has strong ultraviolet rays in winters.
7\. **Snow Blindness Prevention:** Bring sunglasses in case of snow blindness.
