Hokkaido-Sweden Society 3 !

by Kazu

The 150th Anniversary Year of Japan-Sweden relationship started so nicely with the huge snow cathedral of Stockholm displayed in Sapporo Snow Festival 2018held in last February,  Precisely speaking, it started with the research of the original cathedral to gauge the building in Stockholm.

Tens of tons of snow on the Sweden Hills in Tobetsu Town had been carried to make this huge sculpture and many people worked for making this beautiful white building. I took my hat to the efforts to develop and
keep the exciting and heartfelt relatonship between Hokkaido and Sweden. Kudos to the members of Hokkaido Sweden Society and Hokkaido Boadcasting Company, the sponsor of the snow sculpture!
