In Canada, ice sculpting is part of the Quebec City Winter Carnival and a three-day celebration occurs at Lake Louise in Banff National Park called Ice Magic. Meanwhile, the Sapporo Snow Festival in Japan is also world famous. One of the best-known festivals takes place each year in Harbin, in China’s Heilongjiang Province. The tradition of ice sculpting in Harbin actually dates back to at least the 1600s, when fishermen began making lanterns out of ice.
It is not known exactly when the practice of ice sculpting began. If one considers the cutting of ice into blocks to make igloos to be ice sculpting, then the art indeed has a long history. In regions that are now part of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland, people started making igloos about 4,000 years ago.
冰雕在加拿大是魁北克市冬季嘉年華的一部份,也是一個為期三天在班夫國家公園的路易斯湖舉行的慶典,稱為冰魔法節。同時,日本的札幌雪祭也是舉世聞名。最著名的其中一個節慶每年會在哈爾濱舉行,它位於中國黑龍江省。其實哈爾濱的冰雕傳統至少可以追溯到十七世紀,從漁夫製作冰燈開始。
冰雕習俗開始的時間並不確定。如果有人認為切割冰塊來建造(印地安人的)雪屋屬於冰雕的形式,那麼這個藝術確實有很長的歷史。活動地區位在現今的阿拉斯加、加拿大和格陵蘭一部份的人類,大約四千年以前開始建造雪屋。
