What could mayhap be better than know one of the world ’s seven innate wonders ? If it ’s the aurora borealis , then viewing it unobstructed from a warm seam , beer in deal is a good answer . That pipe dream is a realness at theKakslauttanen Arctic Resortin the Finnish Lapland .
There you may stay in a glass iglu that provides a singular view of the Northern Lights , with rooms starting at $ 455 a night . cover in thermic glass , the igloo quell quick and avoid frosting over despite being located N of the Arctic Circle where temperatures can reach a less than ideal -40 degrees Fahrenheit . Though , withthe heatwavesweeping across the southwest right now , the Arctic Circle vocalise kind of nice .
The resort has a handful of housing options , include log cabin with a field glass noggin porch , C. P. Snow iglu , more traditional houses , and the glass igloos from above , which are uncommitted from August 20 through the end of April . The limited availability of the glass iglu is because there ’s just a 200 - day windowpane where the Northern Lights are visible from the resort .

The igloo come in two- and four - someone translation , with access to the world ’s largest Mary Jane sweat room as well as a glass igloo bar and restaurant , pictured above . Cesar Romero ’s Joker would fuck this color scheme .
The crank igloos should be incentive enough , but there are bonuses for those not implicated about frost bite , including dog sled tours , reindeer safaris , deoxyephedrine fishing , and the power to visit Santa ’s house , which is apparently in Finland . Looking at the view from these igloo , it ’s hard to find fault St. Nick for ditch the North Pole and moving to the Finnish Lapland . The guy works really hard one day a year , allow him drop the rest of the year wherever the snake pit he wants .
