A single giant snow statue generally requires at least 2000 cubic meters of snow!
First, a wooden frame is built & filled with tightly packed snow. When the snow has hardened, the frame panels are removed & the carving began. Shovels are used for the rough shaping of the statue while other tools are used to add the finishing touches.
Have fun!
Sapporo ("important river flowing through a plain" in Ainu language) is the capital of Hokkaido and Japan's fifth largest city. Sapporo is also one of the nation's youngest major cities. In 1857, the city's population stood at just seven people.
In the beginning of the Meiji Period, when the development of Hokkaido was started on a large scale, Sapporo was chosen as the island's administrative center and enlarged according to the advice of foreign specialists. Consequently, Sapporo was built based on a North American style rectangular street system.
Sapporo became world famous in 1972 when the Olympic Winter Games were held there. Today, the city is well known for its ramen, beer, and the annual snow festival held in February.
