Minsk Shopping Center Opens Ice Room
On December 7, the ALL shopping center opened a 24 square meters ice room, which is the coldest spot in Minsk, Belarus. The ice figure exhibition titled Pole of Cold is free for visitors. It features handmade ice figures of various animals, such as a bear, owl, and rabbit, as well as a giant sledge and a throne. Five to ten people may visit the room at the same time. The ice project was implemented in two months – from the creation of first sketches to the opening of the room. The sculptures are handmade and weight up to half a ton each; some of them are carved from a solid block of ice
