Ice Village: The Japanese Ice Village for a Unique Winter Experience
We are entering the coldest months of the year, which is why people typically become 'nostalgic' for an idyllic place to enjoy snow, ice, and winter landscapes that leave them 'frozen.'
For this reason, one of the most sought-after destinations during this season is Scandinavia, known for its snowy landscapes and famous ice hotels. But this year, they are not the only ones offering a unique experience for travelers...
On the Japanese island of Hokkaido, specifically in the Ice Village of Tommamu, lies 'Ice Village,' located 150 kilometers from Sapporo, the capital of Japan's northernmost island. In this city, you can enjoy a magnificent atmosphere of cold and snow. But be careful! Make sure to bundle up, as temperatures can drop to -30 degrees Celsius.
This park offers an experience where everything, absolutely everything, is made of ice. Even the shelving in the Ice Café, where we can taste some of the coldest cocktails, in case that wasn't enough...
This experience is also designed for the little ones, who can find a complete set of activities ranging from playing ice instruments to ice sculpting classes.
For adults, if you want to experience something truly unique, what better plan than to take a dream trip and get married in the chapel provided by the resort? As you can imagine, it is also made of ice!
The Ice Village, which is connected to the Hoshino Resort Tomamu, is open for both day trips and longer stays at the resort. However, since it's made of ice, it is only accessible from December to February.
Regarding prices, the entrance fee to the Ice Village is 500 yen, which would be approximately 5 euros. Are you going to miss it? We are frozen just thinking about going...
