Feel the rush of adrenaline as you glide across the frozen terrain, surrounded by breathtaking views that seem straight out of a fairytale. In Saint Petersburg's Admiralty Square during the 1850s, visitors would flock to witness the awe-inspiring Russian Ice Mountain. Even Catherine the Great herself couldn't resist its enchantment and was captured visiting this icy marvel in 1788 by artist Benjamin Paterssen. Traveling further east to Siberia's Irkutsk Oblast region, find yourself captivated by dog sledding on the ice in front of Listvyanka village. As visitors revel in this unique activity amidst stunning surroundings, it becomes clear why Eurasia is home to such extraordinary winter experiences. Winter landscapes have long been celebrated for their beauty and charm. Hendrick Aver's masterpiece "Winter Landscape with Ice Skaters" from around 1608 captures the joyous spirit of people enjoying various winter activities including sledding. Aerial views reveal Lapland's snowy forests transformed into a playground for tourists indulging in dog sledding adventures. The sight is nothing short of magical; one can almost imagine stumbling upon snow fairies hidden amongst these picturesque scenes depicted so vividly by Minnie Asprey. The allure of icy mountains has fascinated artists throughout history. An anonymous artist beautifully portrays these majestic formations in "Ice Mountains, " created circa 1814. Their grandeur serves as a reminder that nature holds immense power and beauty even when covered in frosty white blankets. Sledding brings people together, creating memories filled with laughter and excitement. Whether it be children racing down hills or adults reliving their youthful spirit, there is something undeniably special about this timeless winter activity.
