winter
For the people of Harbin
To describe it in one word is
Love and hate
Hate its coldness
Love the exclusive scenery it brings
Smoking ice, climbing plows, and sitting on snow circles are the exclusive games of every Northeasterner. And the ballet on the ice also makes this quiet winter "dance".
Walking into this gorgeous ice rink, one by one colorful dress, it seems to come to the scene of Frozen in the cartoon, which is the Harbin Daixiu Lake Ice Rink, a paradise for skating enthusiasts.

Kids: Like.
Reporter: Why do you like it?

Harbin Daixiu Lake Park waters the ice rink every year, and this year the area not only expanded to more than 8,000 square meters, but also divided into 5 areas: speed skating area, short track area, children's area, ice hockey area and ice area. Men, women and children alike can fulfill all ice and snow wishes here.
Look at this little posture, this action, who can see, this 5-year-old girl has only been learning for a year.
Sun Jianqiao's mother: Slippery every day.
Reporter: How do you want your child to learn such an ice sport?
Sun Jianqiao's mother: I think that children in the south can swim, and children in the northeast should be able to skate, she is more lively, more energetic, and learning to skate is more suitable for her.
Sun Jianqiao's mother said that the child's first contact with skating, he developed a strong interest, even if he fell a lot, she never cried, she would stand up and continue to move forward. Two or three hours of ice every day, and the temperature of nearly 20 degrees below zero is frozen red, which is not a problem for XiaoJian Qiao, because her dream is enough to support all this.

I'm Latin jumper, I like skating, and if I jump Latin on ice, I feel like I'm very good.
I wish this little girl on the ice rink to be beautiful, comfortable and carefree.
In the ice area, the buzzing ice is no longer a child's toy. Some people smoke two at a time, based on techniques that have been practiced for decades.

The arm had to be thrown so far, and its strength still had an instantaneous explosive force, from top to bottom, just to the end of the pocket just up.
Ice pumping emphasizes "stability, accuracy and fierceness". The arms are thrown, the teeth are twitched, and both points will not be cold when standing up.
In order to solve the problem of citizens playing but not bringing skates, Daixiu Lake Ice Rink also provides free skate services for everyone, regardless of the type or size of shoes.
Daixiu Lake Ice Rink gathers many ice sports enthusiasts, and the laughter of children has become the most cheerful sound of this winter.
The elderly have also entered the "fashion circle", they are uniform, running in small steps, throwing their arms up, laughing at the corners of their mouths, and sliding with joy. They brave the cold and use "speed" to feel the charm of ice and snow.
