Upstream news reporters interviewed and learned that some tourists changed their itinerary and came to the scenic spot before the park closed, "Although many ice buildings are no longer perfect, they have never seen the 'vertical stubble ice', and it is still worth the trip." ”
After the announcement of the closure of many scenic spots, this ice and snow feast is about to come to an end, and tourists have left messages to say goodbye to Harbin, "spent the most unforgettable winter in Harbin" "In this lively Spring Festival, there is sadness, there is reluctance, looking forward to the next time sugar oranges, small potatoes, small angelica gathering, looking forward to the next 10,000 people jumping and 10,000 people singing".
In the early morning of February 16, the Snow Township Scenic Area issued an announcement, saying that the Snow Township Scenic Area was officially closed at 24 o'clock on February 15. At the same time, the ice and snow landscape in the Snow Town Scenic Area has been thawed to varying degrees, and in order to prevent the problem of ice and snow falling and injuring people, it has been fully removed. All performance projects and related services in the scenic area have been shut down, and all night lighting has been closed, and now it has entered the state of infrastructure safety maintenance and maintenance. Guests who have already made a reservation can apply for a full refund through the original ticket purchase channel.
In the previous announcement, the Snow Town Scenic Area also released a rather sensational text, thanking every tourist and friend for their enthusiasm for the ice and snow feast, their love and support for the snow town, and each season of flying snow and spring have formed a deep frozen fate for us, and have opened the prelude to the encounter again. Every snowflake is an invitation to you, in the next ice and snow season, the snow town will be more beautiful in front of you, the beautiful forest with unparalleled natural beauty, we sincerely invite you to gather in China's snow town.
After the beginning of spring, as the temperature rises, this ice and snow feast in Harbin is about to say goodbye to everyone. According to the weather forecast released by the Heilongjiang Provincial Meteorological Service Center, starting from February 16, another round of warm air will arrive strongly, and the temperature will continue to rise in various places, and some areas will enter the freeze-thaw cycle again. On the 17th and 18th, the maximum temperature in some areas rose to 2~9 °C.
Upstream news reporters noticed that after the temperature rose, some small or finely carved snow and ice sculptures have been structurally unstable or even collapsed. As the temperature rises, some snow sculptures gradually appear honeycomb-shaped weathering points on the surface. Some of the small snow sculptures have been dismantled.
Located on the banks of the Songhua River, the Internet celebrity snowman is a must-visit place for many tourists to visit in winter. As the weathering intensifies, the appearance of the snowman gradually becomes mottled and no longer maintains its original white and flawless appearance. Still, this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the tourists. On the contrary, before the demolition, more and more tourists came to check in, hoping to take a group photo.
In addition to the Snow Township Scenic Area, many well-known scenic spots in Heilongjiang have issued announcements of closure due to the rising temperature. Harbin Ice and Snow World issued a closure announcement, saying that due to the impact of rising temperatures and windy weather, the Ice and Snow World Park will be closed from 24 o'clock on February 15, and visitors who have purchased tickets can get a full refund. In addition, the Harbin Songhua River Ice and Snow Carnival and the Guandong Ice and Snow Park announced that they would be closed from the 13th, and the 50th Harbin Ice Lantern Art Fair would be closed at 24 o'clock on February 14. On February 13, some small snow sculptures in the Snow Expo Park will be dismantled, and the daily restoration of large snow sculptures will be stopped.
The reporter learned that after seeing the announcement of the closure of the park issued by the Ice and Snow World, some tourists refunded their high-speed rail tickets to Harbin, and some tourists urgently changed their itinerary, hoping to play before the park was closed.
Ms. Zhang, a tourist, said that she originally planned to go to Changbai Mountain in Jilin Province before going to Harbin. After arriving in Changchun, I saw the announcement of the closure of the Ice and Snow World, so I urgently bought a train ticket for the next day, hoping to go to the Ice and Snow World before the park closed. "In the past, Ice and Snow World was closed in late February, but we didn't expect it to close early due to the weather, which disrupted our travel plans. Ms. Zhang said.
On February 14, Ms. Zhang and her companions went to the Ice and Snow World on their last day. Ms. Zhang said that due to the rising temperature, many ice sculptures in the scenic area have been dismantled, and there are also hook machines entering the site to demolish some large ice buildings. On February 14, the Ferris wheel project was temporarily closed due to weather conditions, but despite this, the scenic area is still crowded with tourists, hoping to say goodbye to the ice and snow world as soon as possible.
"Although I have watched the video many times, the moment I walked into the park from the ticket hall, I was still shocked, like a fairy tale world. Ms. Zhang said that because of the weather, many ice buildings are no longer perfect, but it is still worth the trip to see the "vertical stubble ice" that she has never seen.
It is reported that due to the rising temperature, the ice layer gradually begins to melt into water from top to bottom, and penetrates downward, while transferring heat downward. Due to various factors such as uneven heating, the ice does not melt evenly, with some places melting faster and others more slowly. At this time, the original structure of the ice layer will be changed, and the ice at this time is called "vertical stubble ice".
Mr. Wang, from Shenzhen, said that during the Spring Festival for the first time this year, he showed his son a lot of videos of Harbin before coming, and the whole family had been looking forward to this ice and snow trip for a long time. During the visit, two adults and one child can stay in the snow room in the ice and snow world, and they can also "enjoy" the ice and snow world after the park is closed, which is a very special experience.
In Mr. Wang's view, the charm of Harbin is far more than ice and snow sculptures, and Harbin's customs, culture and art, food, and architecture are full of charm.
With the announcement of the closure of many scenic spots, this ice and snow feast is about to come to an end, and tourists have left messages to bid farewell to Harbin. Tourists left messages saying: "I spent the most unforgettable winter in Harbin", "Thank you for bringing the excitement in the cold winter, winter goes to spring, the four o'clock turns, the melting ice and snow will turn into a smiling face in spring, and continue to warm the fireworks world." "In this lively Spring Festival, there is sadness and reluctance, looking forward to the next gathering of sugar oranges, small potatoes and small angelicas, and looking forward to the next 10,000 people jumping and 10,000 people singing. ”
