Ice sculptures on the beaches of St. Petersburg

From July 24, the beach of the Peter and Paul Fortress will be miraculously transformed: in extremely hot weather, when the city is ready to literally melt, an exhibition of ice sculptures will begin its work. This unique event will take place within the framework of the International Sand Sculpture Festival, which has been held in the north of Venice for the ninth consecutive year. Everyone is interested in the question, how do sculptures not melt in such heat? The whole secret is in the windows that surround the exhibition. They are made of foamplex, a special material that works like a thermos. The youngest visitors will be glad to see the sculptures of Santa Claus and the Hare. The first exhibition of ice figures in Russia will work daily from 10.00 to 18.00.
