Unforgettable Memories of a Snow-White Winter
A fantastic snow-laden dream world unfolds on the slopes of Taebaeksan, one of Korea’s legendary mountains. From January 21, 2011 to January 30, 2011, the Taebaeksan Mountain Snow Festival (태백산눈축제) will open its fifteenth year under the theme “Snow Playground on Mount Taebaeksan.” At the Danggol Plaza in Taebaeksan Provincial Park, snow sculptors from around the world will work side by side with Korean sculptors to create a medley of massive snow sculptures on a scale previously unseen. Come and see the iconic symbols of Korea: Taebumi, the symbol of Taebaek, snowflake Nunsongi, Nunkkaebi’s fantastic tunnel, South Pole Pororo’s snow slide, D-war Imoogi’s tube bobsled, and the Taewang Sashingi ice sculpture. There will be fun activities for everyone! An ice sculpting competition open to college students, a Dr. Fish foot bath, snow sledding, a dog sled ride complete with Siberian Huskies, a winter playground, and other fun programs to make your winter-time blues disappear. Adults will take home memories while their children enjoy sweet dreams of Mt. Taebaeksan. Come visit the snow festival with your family and loved ones for a fun and memorable day in the snow.
