The Sapporo Snow Festival,
one of Japan's largest winter events, attracts a growing number
of visitors from Japan and abroad every year
Every winter, about two million people come to Sapporo to see
the hundreds of beautiful snow statues and ice sculptures
which line Odori Park,the grounds at Community Dome Tsudome, and
the main street in Susukino
For seven days in February,
these statues and sculptures, both large and small, turn Sapporo
into a winter dreamland of crystal-like ice and white snow
