"Romantic Feelings," the world's tallest snow sculpture, is almost finished and will debut at the 20th International Snow Sculpture Art Expo which opens on Dec. 20 at the Sun Island Scenic Area in Harbin, capital of northeastern China's Heilongjiang Province.

The 35-meter-tall and 162-meter-long snow sculpture will be placed in the expo's main square known as the "Romantic and Marvelous Area." Visitors will be able to play the first "ice piano" there.

With the theme of "Focus on Harbin, Savor France," the expo will consist of seven scenic areas.

Along with the expo, the eighth Heilongjiang Provincial Snow Sculpture Competition, the 14th National Snow Sculpture Competition and the 13th International Snow Sculpture Competition will run concurrently.
