guest14125 Hi there,
I was planning to visit Harbin next January for the Ice Festival. I've read somewhere that it will open on the 5th and go on for a month.
I would like to know a couple of things before going.
Has anyone visited it before or is there anyone currently living there to whom I could ask?
Thank you
Daniel

GUEST14125 Hi Ellyse,
I would like to know what could be the best timeframe to visit there.
I could be in Harbin between the 6th and 10th of January, pretty much at the beginning of the Festival. I'm a bit concerned that it could be too early and maybe find many sculptures uncompleted... As well I would like to know of collateral events, shows, etc. if there were any.

No, the sculptures would all already be finished. 6-10/1 would be fine, though please be prepared for high accommodation prices. 2-3 days is probably enough for a visit.
Look on my VirtualTourist Harbin travel page for more information: http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/1d57/f8323/
Please also rate the tips as you go, thanks.
