You will be amazed by the elaborate snow and ice statues that fill Odori, Sapporo's mile-long central park, each year. One of the world's biggest winter spectacles, the festival displays more than 300 giant ice-carved figures of up to 10 metres in height, especially spectacular by night when the statues are illuminated. If you have small children, check out the more spacious display at Makomanai in the south of the city. Arrive in Sapporo a week before the event if you are interested in seeing first-hand the ice being carved into life.
