“The first international ice postcard is ready! The symbols of friendship between the two countries on the border officially open the Russian-Chinese Winter Games on the Amur,” the governor wrote.
In addition to Vasily Orlov, honored guests also contributed to the creation of a unique congratulation: Minister for the Development of the Far East and the Arctic Alexey Chekunkov and commentator Dmitry Guberniev.
The Amur ice was decorated with a brown bear and a panda, symbols that have become traditional at the annual Russian-Chinese culture and art fair.
As previously reported on the website of the government of the Amur region, the sketch of the international postcard was drawn up by Alexei Sidorov, a resident of Amur, member of the Creative Union of Artists of Russia, member of the New Age Academy of World Arts.
According to him, the method used to create the postcard is to saw and deepen the design into the ice, and then fill it with snow. The work was carried out by volunteers from Russia and China.
Let us remember that on February 24 and 24, the International Winter Games will be held on the border river Amur. Hockey players will meet on the ice today. The qualifying stages of the car races will take place on the same day and the final races will take place on February 25.
