2008 Sancheoneo(Mountain Trout) Ice Festival


Period: The entire month of January every year
Venue: Hwacheongang River and 5 Villages in Hwacheon-gun, Gangwon-do, South Korea
Theme: Unfrozen Hearts, Unforgettable Memories
Hosted by Hwacheon-gun
Organized by Hwacheon-gun Festival Organizing Committee


The freshwater mountain trout, a member of the salmon family, is endemic to Gangwon-do Province. It lives only in clean fresh water with a temperature below 20 degrees Celsius throughout the year. The trout is called the "Queen of the Valley" for the beautiful parr marks on its sides. Every winter, the city of Hwacheon organizes a regional cultural festival to celebrate the abundance of mountain trout in its waters.

The Hwacheon Sancheoneo Ice Festival is a unique wintertime celebration that draws over 1,000,000 visitors every year. To promote it as the nation’s largest and most popular winter festival, organizers plan a variety of programs and fun activities. The most popular programs are ice fishing in the clean waters of the Bukhangang River, ice football played on thick ice of the frozen river, and ice sledding.

There are many beautiful temples in India. It will not be wrong to say that India is a land of temples. From Kashmir in the north till Kanyakumari in the south, you can see every state of India flooded with temples. So, if you are interested to view some marvelous architectural pieces, then get India Holiday Packages and India Tour Packages booked.

 

If we talk about extreme south, then there is the tip of India, where you can view Kanyakumari temple. The temple is dedicated to goddess Kanyakumari and is located on the seashore of Kanyakumari. The temple is quite old and the reference of it has been made in Ramayana and Mahabharata. So, if you are interested in viewing some of the great architectural specimens of the world, travel to India, through reputed India travel agent and India travel agency.


Try to visit INDIA

My last visit to India

 

Though my last visit to India was an official one and just for few days, I got some of my misconceptions removed. Firstly, I realized that India has a perfect blend of modernity and traditionalism. Gone are the days when India was considered as a state of snake charmers. India is now ahead of that. Through India Tour packages you can see the other side of India, for which it is attracting thousands of tourists every India. Travel to India and get yourself submerged in its culture. It’s the most appropriate place for bruised souls. The magic of India is powerful, so come and feel it.
