Hokkaido Snow Festival Tour
If you're planning a winter getaway for 2014, consider traveling to Japan for the 65th annual Sapporo Snow Festival in Hokkaido, which takes place Wednesday, February 5 through Tuesday, February 11.
"Every winter, about two million people come to Sapporo to see a large number of splendid snow statues and ice sculptures which line Odori Park, the grounds at Community Dome Tsudome and the main street in Susukino," states the Sapporo Snow Festival website. "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."
According to the source, the Sapporo Snow Festival began in 1950 when local high school students built six snow statues. Since then, the event has gained international recognition, attracting folks from all over the world and becoming one of the most renowned winter events across the globe.
