Sapporo Snow Festival 2016 / 日本札幌雪祭2016


The annual snow festival has opened in the northern Japanese city of Sapporo (さっぽろ雪まつり), featuring more than 200 snow and ice sculptures.The Sapporo Snow Festival was declared open on Friday at Odori Park and 2 other sites in the capital city of Hokkaido.

代表日本北海道冬季特色的“札幌冰雪節” 在大通公園及薄野等札幌市內的三個會場開幕。今年展出二百多座雪雕和冰雕,預料吸引超過二百萬人到場參觀。 日本人氣動畫《進擊的巨人》內的角色製成的大雪雕。「巨人」變「雪人」,拍照都隨和點。整個雪祭有大約250座冰雕及雪雕!

























The huge sculptures in the park include one of the new bullet trains that will start running in Hokkaido next month. Another one is based on a popular cartoon, "Attack on Titan". The festival also has a 17-meter-tall recreation of the facade of St. Paul's Ruins in Macau, a UNESCO world heritage structure. Some of the statues were made by local residents.

除了展覽,雪祭亦舉行雪雕比賽,來自澳門、美國、芬蘭等十二支隊伍,要在四日內,將三立方米的雪雕成動物、人物等形態。不僅要有藝術觸覺,少點體力也不行。主辦單位指,今個冬天異常和暖,為應付雪祭,要去到札幌以外城市搜羅白雪。雪祭下星期四結束,預料會吸引,超過二百萬旅客到場觀賞。
