Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Ice and Snow Festival in Dangkou town on August 5!

Twelve of Wuxi's facebook and twitter account followers exchanged their summer clothes for padded jackets, hats and gloves, and had a great time at the minus-ten-degrees festival.

After admiring the delicate ice sculptures, the bravest among us tried the fast and furious ice slide!

There was also ice bowling, smaller ice slides and a children’s play area covered with snow, as well as the beautiful water town scenery in Dangkou to keep everyone entertained!
