On Saturday, we went to the Icebar in Vienna. It is one of the few icebars in Europe - I know only of those in London and Stockholm, but had never been in one before. It was a very hot day, therefore all the more exciting!
The temperature is kept at minus five degrees Celsius. It is beautifully designed and everything is made from crystal clear Swedish ice - the counter, the decoration, the sofas, the tables, the sculptures, even the glasses. One gets chilled alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks. They provide you with a thermal cape with hood and mittens, so you're kept warm.
The atmosphere is wonderful, the blue light reflecting every colour, for example the cranberry juice in my drink. It was soo relaxing, a very pleasant experience!
We thought, it would be very hot when we got outside, but it wasn't. The body had obviously cooled down and there was no heat-shock after all.
We've heard of the famous icehotel in Canada, of course, where famous iceartists create great works of art.
There's the story of the hotel made of ice and snow
Some examples of ice art
