Sapporo Snow Festival
The Snow Festival in Sapporo, Japan, is being held this week, from February 5 to 11. One of the largest winter events in Japan, the Sapporo Snow Festival began in 1950. The highlight of the festival, which takes place around Odori Park in the central part of the city, is the 400+ large snow sculptures, such as the one picture above. Over two million visitors attend the festival annually.
