Question

    Escaping the stress of work and social worries and finding yourself in a winter wonderland is a magical feeling. Try to make any of these destinations your target and you'll be happy that you did!

l. Harbin city, China

Come and enjoy one of the most memorable Ice and Snow Festival during winter. Harbin City's snow festival draws a huge crowd because tourists want to feast their eyes of the well-known splendid ice structures.

These structures are the biggest ice structures you will find nowhere in the world and they get more beautiful at night when they are lighted up by diverse colored lights. Plus, you can go ice-skating under the beautiful Chinese lights.

2. Ohrid, Macedonia

Ohrid might be everyone's summer fantasy for sunbathing and swimming but have you thought about the picturesque view of its location in the winter? This peaceful little lakeside town looks charming with snow-covered cobblestones on the narrow walks. There is nothing as good as finding a Macedonian breakfast with some strong local coffee.

3. Svalbard, Norway

Polar bears love this location probably because of its arctic qualities. Here you can find wildlife and several ancient mining towns which collectively make the group of neighboring islands a beautiful sight. However, in winter, a beauty of nature described as the Polar Night takes place here, making it the most-favored destination worldwide. The sun doesn't set and leaves a blue twilight in the sky, coloring the nearby snow-capped mountains.

4. Richmond Park, UK

The Richmond Park is one of the prides on Londoners. In winter, you can see tens of wild deer all over the woody park, either wandering or eating grass at ease. The pouring ice draws visitors who are keen hikers or just want to enjoy a nice winter time doing snowball fight, flying in the sled.
