It's the ice palace in Finland--standing two storeys tall and made with 660
thousand cubic feet of snow.
The structure is built to resemble a castle and includes an art gallery,
restaurant and --get this-- a wedding chapel.
Several thousand people are expected to brave the chilly temperatures and
visit the palace before it closes in April.
