Are you the kind of person who likes staying in unusual places? If the answer is "yes", then try the
world's coldest hotel in Jukkasjarvi in the north of Sweden. But go in winter or all you'll find is a pool of
water, because the hotel melts every spring!
     The man who runs the Aortic Hall Hotel is Nils Yngve Bergqvist. He is also the man whose idea it was.
He built his first hotel for an art show in 1991 and he designed the present hotel-over 200 metres
square-himself. It took workmen about two months to put 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden board. As
the weather got colder, the snow froze and then they removed the board. The whole building and everything
in it is made of snow - except for the wooden front door. There's a theatre, a jazz club, a radio station and
a large ice bar. As you can imagine, hot drinks are popular with the guests! The rooms have no doors, there
is no furniture, no heating and everyone sleeps on…yes, that's right…ice beds. But the 800 people who have
stayed at the hotel this winter seem to like it. If you want to stay in one of the ice rooms, it will cost you
about ￡30 a night. You won't be very comfortable, but you will receive a survival certificate (生存能力證書)
from the manager!
     When the winter is over, Nils holds his competition every year to predict the day that the hotel will fall.
The person that guessed the day correctly last year received a large painting from an Aortic Hall show.
Bergqvist's ice hotels are becoming world-famous and he loves his work. He's already excited about his
next project-an ice hotel that will be bigger and better, he says.
