Indoor Ski Lodge

 Located in Landgraff,Netherlands is an indoor ski lodge also known as a snow dome.

 The ski slopes on average are 62-82 ft wide. The ski lodge is fully equipped with ski lifts, ramps and rails.

 Halfway down the slope is  
a mountain restaurant,shops,and two food courts.

 The Ski Lodge offers ski rentals and a daily ticket which allows you to come and go from the resort or a eight hour ticket.

 The ski resort would be an enjoyable place to spend the day. The resort is 520m of fluffy snow. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience.    

  Feel free to comment if you have heard about the resort, or have personally been to any of the indoor ski lodges around the world.

    One of the most interesting destinations to visit  is the ice hotel in Quebec, Canada. The entire hotel is made of frozen water and the pictures are beautiful. It is called Hotel de Glace. 

     Wedding receptions are held in the cathedral of the hotel. The interior and exterior of the cathedral are covered in white. The outside looks similar to an igloo.

       For dramatic effect, on evening occasions there are colored lights shining on the ice as spotlights. The purple and green lights illuminate the intricate details of the walls and columns of the cathedral. 

       If you're ever near Quebec, canada going for a tour would definately be a experience of a lifetime. It is one of the places I hope to visit when I travel there soon.
