Carnival in Quebec Canada

In Canada it is not a normal carnival instead of making floats they make sculptors and rides with ice.

 They make an amusement park with skiing, snow rafting and ice sculptors.

 The carnival is held from the 1^st of February to the 17^th before Ash Wednesday. The first organization of the carnival was in 1894 with the first ice castle. Since the year 1955 the carnival wasn't interrupted and it ran half a century.  The first castle even had a dungeon in it.

It is an unusual carnival and I wish to go there someday. It is a winter carnival.
