In Japan they don't just sit around a hot hibachi and wait for s-p-r-i-n-g when it snows. They hold a festival with towering ice sculptures that attracts people from all over the nation. It's a sad day when warm weather arrives and the show goes down the drain. People dressed up in winter gear walking down the street' of Northern Japan in a parade. Snow festival with a huge carved Buddha out of ice. People walking by Polar Bears carved out of ice. A temple carved from ice. Train carved from ice. (ice sculpture)
