The World's Largest Snow Castle


© www.snowcastle.net


The most unusual item on our list is the LumiLinna snow castle and it is just what its name suggests: a huge castle constructed entirely out of snow. Located in Kemi, Finland, the castle is rebuilt every year—after melting in April—over a period of two months. Temperatures in the castle’s 18 guest rooms average 23 degrees Fahrenheit, but the hotel provides sleeping bags that not only “guarantee the survival” of its guests, but also promise a comfortable night’s sleep.
