Quebec, Canada
The first view of the inside of the ice hotel is spectacular. The ceiling vaults up almost 20 feet and a carved ice columns stretch to meet it. There is a huge reception desk on one side, and next to it a carved fireplace and chairs -- all made of ice. A chandelier weighing hundreds of pounds reaches down from the ceiling and massive sculptures provide art for each room .
Long hallways reach out in different directions, down which people walk to view each of the different rooms. Each room has a unique bed, sculptures, and wall carvings in a chosen theme.
When it's fully constructed, the ice hotel will have 36 rooms, a chapel, nightclub, and entry hall. One of just two ice hotels in the world, it's truly a unique experience to see and spend a night in it.
Alleluia!
The "Carnaval de Quebec" is an awesome way to discover our beautiful province..
Yeah, I live nearby that place :)
