About this experience

Some sand sculpture artists gathered from around the world to carve statues on the sand in the open air, but in a very specific and precise way that only a few people around the world recognize , allowing the statues carved on the sand to withstand harsh weather conditions such as strong winds, rain, or snow. 42 world-class sculptors from Russia, Germany, America, and Turkey participated in the process of carving figures within the Sand Museum, which took 7 months to finish and used 12,000 tonnes of sand and 15,000 tonnes of water.
