The SnowCastle of Kemi, located in Kemi, Finland, is a unique seasonal attraction built entirely of snow and ice, typically open from late January to early April. Each year, the castle is rebuilt with a different design, featuring snow sculptures, ice restaurants, a hotel, and a chapel. Accessibility can be challenging due to icy conditions; sturdy footwear is recommended. While solo visits are possible, guided tours offer deeper insights into the castle's construction and artistry. Expect to spend around 2-3 hours exploring, and the cost can range from €20-€40 depending on activities like dining or staying overnight. Keep in mind that the castle melts in warmer weather, so plan your visit during the winter months.
