Embracing the snow icicles and the chilly weather is something that’s amazing during a Canadian winter especially within beautiful spots in Alberta. Now if you’re anything like me you’ll be hankering to see some of this picturesque side of winter with the Edmonton Ice Castle being one of the prettiest. When the weather outside is frightful we dream of escaping to a tropical beach without a trace of snow in sight. But these enchanting photos of Ice Castles an attraction opening in Lincoln New Hampshire on January 22nd are about to change your winter travel plans.

The magical frozen playground which was started by Brent Christensen after he built his daughter an ice cave is exactly what it sounds like an acre covered in larger than life ice sculptures. Walk through frozen arches and tunnels while admiring towers so intricate they'd make Elsa from Disney's Frozen jealous. Colorful lights will take your breath away while ice slides will entertain children and adults alike.

We start the planning throughout the summer as far as the layout and the design. And then in October we bring in a big build crew. We start laying out all the electrical and the plumbing for the lights that are all buried into the ice as well as the entire sprinkler heads to build the castle itself. So it starts early on in the summer we start the build phase starting in the fall, and then once it gets cold usually around thanks giving the first of December then we can turn the water on and start building the castle.

Frozen fractals are all around in Lincoln New Hampshire this winter. Towering, LED-lit structures replete with cavernous room’s slippery slides, stalactites and stalagmites and ice thrones will be available for exploration in January. It’s all part of New England’s own ice castle a fantastical attraction that began with a project in a Utah yard. Over the years they grew more elaborate with slides, caves and towers and Christensen realised he could expand.

The artisans will craft hand carved slides tunnels fountains crawl spaces caverns and intricately designed ice thrones near the shore of Lake George. At night the frozen fairytale setting is transformed into a colorful explosion with embedded LED lights creating a beautiful enchanting glow throughout the experience. Each castle is approximately one acre in size and consists of more than 25 million pounds of frosty magic.

The icicles we grow are the building blocks for the entire attraction said Brent Christensen Ice Castles’ founder. We fuse the icicles together to create different formations that will grow into towering walls of ice. Ice Castles has been produced nationally across five states in America but the Lake George event will be their first appearance in New York. Other locations include North Woodstock New Hampshire New Brighton, Minnesota Midway, Utah and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Once the event is done the ice capped spectacle will melt back into the lake ensuring it will use again by wildlife people and plants.

One of the four largest snow and ice festivals in the world takes place in Harbin the capital of Heilongjiang Province in northeastern China. The month long celebration and showcase of icy architecture happens every January and boasts enormous buildings people can wander through admiring the sheer size of these constructions as well as how nice they look lit up.

The acre sized exhibit of ice towers, frozen thrones and fountains and mazes of ice carved slides and tunnels will be a slightly different experience this year with masks and social distancing among the safety precautions, organizers said in a news release. Building an ice castle is a fascinating process. Each day there is a different problem to solve. But time to see the exhibit is limited as it is weather dependent and usually lasts until March. That's why the castle is built near a natural water source so the water can return directly to the environment once it melts.
