"Unexplored Worlds" an exhibition of ice sculptures

[Наталия Ворошилова]

Frost, sun, Sunday - all matched to a family function in the "people". Determined decision, I gathered my family, and we went to the Museum of Astronautics admire the ice sculptures.

In the beginning a little upset organization of the event: the entire territory of the exhibition of ice sculpture was surrounded by a white fence, which even nebylo advertising events and pointers, where are all the same entrance. Wander through the Museum of Astronautics, the entrance, we fortunately found and even bought a tickets at a price of 250 rubles.



And then it became fun. At the entrance to the exhibition of ice sculptures we were met by cosmic ice slide, with which my son and I rolled merrily, having defended a small queue. My son is happy to climb in snow tunnels. Adults to climb there will not advise it, and you can get stuck.



Then we skimmed briskly on an ice maze, beautifully sparkling in the sun. Behind him stood a flying saucer and Gromozeka from the cartoon "The Mystery of the Third Planet". Gromozeka my two year son was not impressed (they have not met yet). But the flying saucer was at the time. Climbing up the icy steps, synulya easily found on board, and even comfortably nestled in the pilot's seat, that's just his hands did not reach the steering wheel. Near the dish beautifully housed Captain Green-eared alien with a bird talker and a robot from the planet Shelezyaka: great cartoon character "The Mystery of the Third Planet".



Next trail led us to hang out heroes of Star Wars: Darth Vader, Yoda, R2-D2 and other friendly sparkled in the sun. To gain experience background sculptures served as an ice wall, which froze the huge banners with footage from the film.



In general, we've got a lot of wonderful ice sculptures in the form of Astronauts, the stargazers, rabbits and seals (astrology, astronomy, because a relative), mythical figures and heroes of films such as, for example, the heroes of Avatar.



And then we got to the next ice slides in the form of a spaceship of aliens. Son began to leisure: not stop climbing the stairs, slid it to the pope, then on his stomach on the ice tunnel, and again climbed the hill. We e and her husband entertained himself staring at the characters zodiac constellations, which are located in the ports of a starship.



Want to commend the organizers of the exhibition: in my opinion, it successfully combines the ice sculptures for visitors of all ages, and offers not only watching, but climb, sit and ride on the ice sculptor, which adds to the dynamics and allows for a long time to keep children site. Our family enjoyed. And after 16.00 illuminates, I think it is very beautiful.
