For a few months each year you can experience a sensationalised Eskimo lifestyle in Jukkasjärvi, the world’s first and largest hotel that’s built entirely out of ice and snow. Every year, around 50 artists head to Sweden to help rebuild the structure, thus resulting in a hotel that looks a little bit different each time. The hotel also features a bar, with glasses made of ice, and an ice chapel that’s popular amongst marrying couples. Each year the hotel receives applications from artists all around the world to design imaginative suites and the actual construction of the structure starts in November, finally opening up for the guests in January.
