Hotel Kakslauttanen Welcomes Its Visitors in Glass Igloos
Posted March 19th, 2008 by Mihnea Boiangiu
A Finnish hotelier company had an amazing idea of creating glass igloos for its visitors. In case you didn’t know, the igloo has been the first kind of shelter in the arctic area. The Eskimos built igloos because they offered protection of bad weather in the frozen lands.
The resort from Saariselkä, Finland, is just 250 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. The Hotel Kakslauttanen is in fact a Igloo Village. Obviously the visitors could opt for snow igloos, but today’s technology has offered them the possibility to built the glass igloos using a thermo glass that keeps them warmth and comfortable. Furthermore, the ones who go for the glass igloos will experience an idyllic sensation. They can contemplate the frozen landscape or admire the northern lights. Due to the thermo glass technology, igloos inhabitants won’t feel any of the polar cold. I would love to stay there at least for a single night.
