When we were in Seoul, we visited the highly entertaining Trick Eye Museum. I wrote a blog post about it with lots of funny pictures.
Look! The Trick Eye Museum is on Oprah, inside the Ice Museum, on an ice TV. Hahaha….
In the same building, you can find the Ice Museum Seoul.
It is the only permanent Ice Museum in the world.
Read what people say about it on Tripadvisor here.
The space is quite small and kept at -5 degrees C, so you definitely need warm clothes. When we visited the museum, it was freezing outside, so our own clothes were sufficient. In case you visit Seoul during summer, warm coats are provided on site, so no worries.
Weird stuff. Creepy, right?
Although the museum is small, it is still fun to check it out.
The focus is on Korean households, so there is an ice kitchen, an ice bed and an ice sports car.
Driving my frozen sports car;-).
Frozen fruits anyone?
Very inviting, Frits, but thanks no thanks. Way too cold!
Further there is e.g. an ice slide, frozen people, ice wings and frozen angry birds.
I know; I’m an angel…
Spooky…
Frozen angry bird.
A visit to the Ice Museum Seoul will take only 20 to 30 minutes. At that time you will probably be happy to leave anyways, due to the cold;-).
Luckily it only takes some Love Therapy to quickly warm up frozen hearts and bodies.
Love therapy on ice.
So what do you think? Would this be a museum that you would enjoy?
I don’t think I would visit it, but your pictures are fun. Especially you as an angel.
Greetje
Yes, me as a angel is very realistic, isn’t it, with my angelic personality…hahaha…
Yes, I like the photo of you as an angel, and your love therapy on ice. Haha. If it were really hot outside, I’d visit, well, depending on ticket price. Some of the exhibits creep me out - the people in ice. Canada has a ice hotel near Montreal I think, winters only. You pay them to sleep on big blocks of ice. ALL NIGHT! Thanks for the tour, Anja.
Yeah, I know about the ice hotel there. I’m a person who feels cold very fast and I hate, hate, hate cold. So I have never felt the desire to go and sleep there;-).
I have been to a deep frozen ice exhibit in Singapore and to an ice-bar in Amsterdam. That was more than enough for me.
