It’s touristy. Downright gimmicky! And you’re utterly intrigued, admit it: a bar built entirely out of ice, where you drink from glasses carved of ice on tables made of ice. The admission price gets you warm booties, mittens, a parka and one drink. Refill drinks cost 99kr; entry is cheaper if you book online.
