The Glass Igloo
Village Kakslautanen in Lapland, Finland
After years of development, which was based to our wild idea
and vision, we were finally able to finish the unique Glass Igloos
in our Igloo Village. When sleeping in the Glass Igloos the customer
is able to marvel the amazing northern lights and the millions of
stars in the sky. The experience is also unforgettable when there is
a snowstorm. Kakslauttanen is a very good place for seeing the
Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, as in the area there are not so
many electric lights outside.

The LumiLinna SnowCastle in
Kemi, Finland
The first SnowCastle in 1996, was a gift from the UNICEF
together with the City of Kemi to all the children in the
whole wide world. The very first idea for building the
SnowCastle in Kemi arose in the minds of the City’s decision
makers from the fact that even though snow is a very common
aspect for us Finns, for the majority of the children in the
world it is ever quite a strange, or even an unknown
element, and yet, in itself, utterly interesting: how snow
looks like, tastes like, how it feels, are factors to
fascinate the young and old alike. .

Hotel of Ice in Romania

Mountains is rebuilt, namely from the materials offered by
nature: huge blocks of ice, cut and removed directly from
the glacial Lake Balea are used to raise the walls, the snow
gathered across the mountain slopes, is used for fixing the
ice bricks and for finishing the walls. Every year brings a
new story from the Hotel of Ice. Each season another new
structure is added and tells a new story.
