China's Xuelong -- or "Snow Dragon" -- has arrived at China's Changcheng station on the continent of Antarctica. An expedition team will spend three days unloading an estimated 600 tons of food and fuel from the ice-breaker.

It will then continue its trip anti-clockwise around the continent. During the country's 32nd scientific expedition, the team will conduct surveys on marine hydrology, chemistry and biology. (CCTV)
