Changchun Ice and Snow World trial run begins

Changchun Ice and Snow World, a 1.08 million-square-meter park, began its trial run on Monday in Changchun, capital of Northeast China's Jilin province.

More than 300,000 cubic meters of ice and snow were used for the park's construction.

In the park, tourists can enjoy 130 ice and snow buildings and creations, including a 21-meter-high ice Olympic torch, a 420-meter-long ice slide and a 157-meter-long snow sculpture.

Three buildings are expected to be certified by Guinness World Records as world records in terms of the world’s highest ice Olympic torch, world's longest ice slide and world's longest snow sculpture.
