Poland Builds World’s Largest Snow Maze That’s Bigger Than 10 Tennis Courts

Published 5 years ago

There are two ways people see winter: some see it as cold, damp, and try to spend as little time outside as possible, while others can’t wait for it to come, mainly for one thing – snow. Just think about it, snow is sort of like nature’s LEGO – you can create anything you want with it. Snowmen, snowballs, forts, and even gigantic mazes the size of 10 tennis courts! And in case you think the last one sounds oddly specific, that’s because someone actually built one.

A giant snow maze called “Snowlandia” was built in the small Polish town of Zakopane, one of Poland’s most popular skiing destinations, and you better bring a thermos – because getting out is going to take you a while.

50 workers took almost a month to build the maze using over 60,000 ice blocks. They even built a 16 m (52.5 ft) tall snow castle that you can enter next to it.

The maze is lit up with colorful lights during night time, making the whole area look almost like something from a fantasy book.

Artists from Poland and Slovakia created the sculptures to decorate both the maze and the castle. You can already begin planning your trip – Snowlandia is scheduled to open again in January 2020!

There’s even an ice throne if you’re not afraid to freeze your butt!

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
