Japan's amazing snowmen will blow your mind
- Published
People in Japan are making the most of the heaviest snowfall for four years.
Despite temperatures dropping to -4 degrees Celsius in Tokyo they've been out in force making snowmen.
Not just any old snowmen with coal for eyes and carrots for a nose though. These icy sculptures are crafted with care.
They've been inspired by much-loved movies and video games, including Star Wars and Pokemon.
Here are some of the most artistic snow sculptures we could find on social media, including carefully crafted Minions.
