SWEDEN

The most exiting places to go to visit in Sweden:

Sweden is one of the places that I am really interested in and that I really would like to go to
visit, because there are many joiful entertainements and weard activites to try...

Here there are some :


The ice Hotel:

So, one of the most comon but particular exeprince that we can try in Sweden is sleeping in the ice hotel in Jukkasjärvi, about 17 km from Kiruna ( obiously in the north of the Sweden)....

In Spring 1990, French artist Jannot Derid held an exhibition in a cylinder-shaped igloo in the area. One night there were no rooms available in the town, so some of the visitors asked for permission to spend the night in the exhibition hall. They slept in sleeping bags on top of reindeer skin - the first guests of the "hotel".

This is an hotel made enterely of ice and snow, also the glasses and the most usefull, daily objects are made by using ice or snow.

It is rebuilded every year, because it melts during the summer.

Hot air baloon in Sweden

Hot air baloon in Sweden
Stockholm becomes a fantasy destination for balloonists each summer, when they get to enjoy romantic sunset aerial cruises over the city. Stockholm's far northern latitude makes the summer days very long, extending twilight and allowing safe and spectacular night flying. With predictable summer air conditions and over twenty good landing sites in the city's environs, sunset ballooning is not only possible here—it is the custom. Ninety percent of the commercial balloon flights lift off at dusk. The evening light combines with the unique pleasure of gliding over the shimmering lights of the capital make this a balloon vacation to remember.

Ice hotel


Sweden's Ice Hotel is built from scratch every year. A new design, new suites, a brand new reception - in fact everything in it is crisp and new. If you would like to know more about it, see older posts.
