Ever thought about sleeping on ice? How about in an Ice Hotel? Every year, a small, northern town in Sweden makes an Ice Hotel. Located in Jukkasjärvi in the Arctic Circle, it is constructed and designed by numerous ice sculptors from around the world. My recommendation is to fly from Stockholm to Kiruna, then use the shuttle service to Jukkasjärvi. I stayed one night in the Ice Hotel and one night in a normal hotel. Visiting all the rooms, chapel, and sculptures throughout the property is the highlight. You can also enjoy snowmobile rides to see the northern lights, ice fishing, and snowshoeing. There is also a nearby reindeer park where you can interact with real, live reindeer. As well as a Sámi museum to know about the native Sámi culture. Make sure you are well prepared with warm, winter gear. The hotel does offer some clothes and boots for the stay in the Ice Hotel.
