Sapporo Snow Festival

I don't feel that this post will adequately sum up the entire Snow Festival, but I will do my best!

Sapporo is a city on the northern island of Japan, Hokkaido. Every year they have a huge snow and ice festival in the city. We thought about going last year, but it wasn't long after we got here that the trip was happening, so we waited until this year. We spent 3 days there and got to see quite a few things. We took 721 photos total, so this post will only be a snapshot of those sites.

After our flight up to Hokkaido, we stopped for lunch at the Sapporo Beer Garden.










It was cold!




The first place we went to was the Odori Park site where the snow sculptures were. Here are a few of our favorites. Keep in mind, these are made entirely out of snow!















I will continue this in more posts to come...
