The Harbin Ice and Snow Festival has been held every year since 1963. It had to stop for a number of years during the Cultural Revolution, but it was restarted in 1985.

Cabbage is a good source of vitamin C and other nutrients.Cato the Elder, a famous Roman thinker 2,000 years ago, praised its medical value.If you eat it raw, he suggested dipping it in vinegar.
Think about growing head cabbage if you live where the weather is cool and the soil is moist and fertile.Spring and fall are good times to begin.Cabbage does not need full sun and grows easily if you water it regularly and protect against insects and disease.
Cabbage takes about 60 to 90 days to grow.The amount of space needed between the plants depends on how big you expect the heads to be.Cabbage can be picked any time after the heads have formed.
Always keep the plants moist, so you need to water it regularly.Watch for yellowing or black spots on the stems.Yellow or brown areas shaped like the letter V on leaves may be a sign of black rot infection.Insects, transplants and seeds can spread infections.
On March 17th, many Irish Americans will eat a traditional meal of corned beef and
cabbage to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day.Cabbage leaves can be steamed or cooked in a small amount of boiling water until soften.Cabbage smells terrible if you cook it too long.Uncooked cabbage, cut thinly, is used in coleslaw(卷心菜沙拉) and many other salads.Sauerkraut is cabbage fermented(发酵) in its own juice.It means “sour cabbage” in German.Salt is traditionally used to pull water out of the cabbage.And Chinese cabbage is popular not just in China.It is commonly used, for example, in kimchee, a spicy(辣的) Korean food made with fermented cabbage.
