Tale of Two Snow Festivals

We are in Sapporo mainly for the snow festival which usually takes place in early February every year. Just a heads up, if you intend to attend a snow festival in the near future, make sure you dress warmly!

This year’s showcase sets are pretty amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed the Attack on Titan themed display since we really liked the anime. Note: Hate the movie, never watch it!

The ice sculptures are pretty unique as well.

Nearby Otaru also has their snow festival at the same time. Very different from the one in Sapporo. It’s more quaint and low budget. Although the snow festival area is not very big, mainly along the canal, it does not lack in cuteness.

Each display is so homey and warm.
