Hello there once again! Today, I wanted to tell you about Ice Hotel, simply because it is so cool! Ice Hotel is located in Jukkasjarvi, Sweden, and is a hotel made completly out of ice and snow! It's only open from December to April, and the rest of the year the ice is stored and more is harvested from the Torne River. This isn't the only Ice Hotel in the world, but it was the first, and it opened for the first time in 1990. The Ice Hotel came to be when, in 1990, a French artist named Jannot Derid held an art exhibition in an igloo shaped in a cylinder. There were no places to stay in the town one night, so some visitors got permision to stay in the exhibition hall. They slept in sleeping bags on top of reindeer skin. It's beautiful, but maybe a little too cold for one's liking. ;)
