The Icehotel in the small town of Jukkasjarvi, Sweden, has reopened recently. Thirty-six artists from 17 countries were involved in the design process.
The Icehotel was first built in 1989 and is rebuilt every year. The artists used 30,000 cubic meters of ice to rebuild it this year, as well as 500 tons of natural ice to build glasses and an ice bar.
The hotel includes 35 specially designed deluxe suites, an ice-carved great hall and a brand-new children's playground. There is an eye-catching ceiling lamp made of 1,000 hand-polished ice crystals in the main hall and 200 hand-carved walls decorated with plants in the great hall.
