A. Sweden's ICEHOTEL is known for many things: its "out of this world" location, great architecture
and even freezing comfort, but not for longevity (AonroseYHOCTb)! The hotel is located in the
village of Jukkas­ jarvi. It has to be rebuilt every year because it is carved entirely from ice
blocks. They melt when the summer comes along. Each time the build­ ing gets increasingly better!
B. Over 20 years ago, a local company looking for the ways how to at­ tract tourists to Jukkasjarvi
during the freezing winter months, decided to host an art exhibition inside an igloo built on the
frozen Tome River. The 5,6 square meters structure was a huge success attracting many day visitors.
One day a group of brave people arrived with sleeping bags and announced their intention to spend
the night inside the igloo. After that the idea of constructing the ICEHOTEL was born.
C. The hotel has come a long way since its beginnings. Constructed from 1,000 tons of ice and
30,000 tons of "snice" (a mixture of ice and snow), it now covers 5,500 square meters. The
construction process begins in March and April, when about 5,000 tons of ice is harvested from the
river and transferred to a cold storage where it sits till the be­ ginning of winter. Building of
the hotel begins in November when about 100 workers, half of them artists, invited to design
special sections, come to the region. By December, it is ready and open for business.
Each version of the hotel is unique, more a work of art than a struc­
ture made from frozen water. Its 47 rooms built to accommodate visitors on all kinds of budgets vary frqm luxurious suites to rooms that are fur­ nished with just an icy bed and a reindeer skin.
But no matter what room the guests are in, the temperature is -S"C! Guests are advised to use thermal. sleeping bags and keep their gloves and winter hats on all night. No wonder that most end up spending just one night in this freezing environment before moving to more conven­ tional warmer cabins nearby. But the guests all agree that it is an expe­ rience like none other.
Like at any hotel, guests can choose to walk around all day or pick from a number of activities like dog sledding, snowmobile safaris and overnight wilderness camping. Though dining choices are pretty much limited to the restaurants in the hotel, guests have very little to complain about.
G . The best part about this semi-permanent structure is that ecologi­ cally it is the ultimate green building. It houses and entertains guests all winter and then as summer approaches and the temperatures rise, sim­ ply melts into one giant puddle, leaving behind no trace of its existence.
H. Over the years, many other ice hotels have emerged and similar des­ tinations can now also be found in Canada, Norway, Finland and Roma­ nia. However, the original one remains the biggest and the grandest of all.
