Liu Qingwu, 61, a retired teacher from a primary school in the city, created the large lifelike sculpture with his assistants for almost two weeks.

As an enthusiast of snow sculpture, Liu uses the snow and ice to makes different sculptures after retirement. He said he just wanted people to find some fun in his work.
