Move over, Frosty! Harbin's latest winter superstar has arrived. On December 25, 2025, in Daoli District of Harbin, a city in northeast China, organizers unveiled its massive 26-meter-tall snowman sculpture, affectionately nicknamed 'Fuwa'. Dressed in a vibrant red hat and vest, Fuwa is all about good fortune and cozy vibes. ❄️⛄️
For many Southeast Asian and South Asian explorers – where snow is more of a holiday postcard than reality – Fuwa is the ultimate winter bucket list goal. Carved from local ice and snow by talented artisans, this frosty giant brings Harbin's world-famous Ice and Snow Festival to a whole new level.
Whether you're dreaming of your first snowball fight or hunting that perfect Instagram shot, Fuwa's got your back. Ready to add Harbin to your #ChinaTravel map this winter? Let us know what you'd pack for a snowy selfie! 📸🌨️
