In April, the weather gets warm so it is hard to see ice sculpture. I suggest you visit Harbin in Winter from December to February, which are the best time to visit the snow and ice sceneries in Harbin.
I plan to go harbin during Dec. What is the best date to go there for ICE festival? I will be travel from kuala lumpur, any recomment flight to harbin? Thanks a lots.

It is cold in Harbin during the period you mentioned, around -20C to -10C. The best time to go Harbin is around January 05, when the Ice Lantern Festival will be held.
If we were to take a trip to Harbin in Nov or Dec, is there anything to see, such as ice sculputures and lights, or would we not see anything like the festival?
Harbin is a city famous for fantastic sculptures created from snow and ice and ice lanterns. If you travel in Nov or early Dec, only indoor ice activities are available. I suggest you visit Harbin in late Dec to fully enjoy the charming city.

Dear clark tan, according to the weather report, there will be snow on Mar 18, 2009. But it is not for sure. The weather is really too changeable. May you have good luck.
Will the Harbin Ice Festival still be going on February 11th and 12th this year?

Generally speaking, the Ice Festival will last to the end of February. However, many ice and snow statues will be dirty or destroyed then, so it will not be that beautiful at that time. Actuaaly, as along as it snows in the winter, you can come for snow and ice scenery. There is no need to travel in the very peak season, spending the highest price. Just for your reference.

I prefer to have a half day trip to skiing on Songhua River.

Hi, I do not think it is a good idea to ski on Songhua River. It is not safe. There are many ski resorts around the city, you sure can have fun there.
