Harbin, China can get extremely cold with temperatures dropping as low as -30 to -40 degrees Celsius during the winter months. The city is well-known for its bitterly cold winters and the annual Harbin Ice and Snow Festival takes advantage of the freezing temperatures to create elaborate ice sculptures.

What are the latitude and longitude cordanates of the city harbin?

Things have changed since the days when I passed through Harbin on my way to and from Daqing. At that time, I was warned not to use a camera or compass in the airport. But today, I can see the Harbin Taiping International Airport on Google Earth, with details as clear and sharp as those of Ohare in Chicago, plus a bunch of photos taken by tourists on their way through it. The southwest end of Runway-05 at Harbin-Taiping is located at 45.61244° north latitude 126.23727° east longitude. That's about 23 miles west-southwest of the center of the city.

What led to the celebration of the snow and ice festival in harbin?

That is a long history. Almost 70 years ago, a person made a big ice bulk beside his home to make fun and perhaps some other ideas. He made a hole in ice and inserted a candle in it. Then, some neighbours learned his art work. In 1956, the Harbin government held a simple exhibition in the Zhao lin Park for spring. Many Harbin citizens went to the park to visit the exhibition and subsequently it was developed and became a big and international festival. Up to now, it was continued each winter to say "welcome" to the next spring!
