The characteristic of Ice Books＆Café is that you may relax and spend a leisure time here surrounded by ice bookshelves and around a burning fireplace. As the flame in the fireplace is contained by a special glass, the internal ice structures will not be melted. Also, the books here are selected with our wishes for you to have a heart-warming experience in the cold winter.

You may enjoy the various kinds of sweets related to snow and ice like the "Ice Latte" made by added milk to flavored ice, and shaved ice. The container of shaved ice is also made with ice, so you may eat the entire dessert together with its container, as its special feature. Also, the "Iced Vegetable Cheese Fondue" which is served with frozen vegetables on an ice plate, is highly recommended. May you savor the vegetables by dipping them into the hot cheese for a fabulous taste.

For the first time, the activity "GAO" which fulfills children's curiosity and desire to learn about nature in various fields, has come to Ice Village. This year, we have added the experience in playing ice musical instruments and freezing soap bubbles. We also continue to offer the popular activities like sculping your own ice glass at "Ice Glass Making", and creating keychain by applying a special process on snow crystals at "Ice Crystal Keychain Making".

We offer over 50 kinds of hard liquor and cocktail in front of the ice cellar and behind the ice bar counter in this space surrounded by ice walls. Also, it is possible to add the underground water from the perpetual snow (*) of Daisetsuzan Mountain into your cocktail. This water gives a soft texture on the tongue and is known as the water for long life, which is also used in making the Japanese sake "Otokoyama".

(*) The snow that remains all-year-round on high mountain range without melting is called "perpetual snow". In Japan, it is seen in Daisetsuzan in central Hokkaido, and Fuji Mountain.

All the ceilings and walls are made with ice, together with the ice bed, chairs, and table.

In the Ice Chapel, the altar, the cross, the aisle, even the chairs are made of ice. In ceiling and wall are made with a single piece of seamless ice to represent the "unbroken continuous pure love between the couple". For about a month of limited time, ceremonies are held at the Ice Chapel, followed by fireworks that cover the ice town with vivid colors to celebrate for the newlyweds.

The Ice Rink and Ice Slide are popular spots for both adults and kids. The Slide can take you down from Ice Village's overlook deck to right next to the Ice Rink, so you may have easy access to the ice skates rental and enjoy both the Rink and the Slide at the same time.
