Igloo Making Experience in Towadako

Experience igloo building while enjoying delicious food made with Towada ingredients on the shores of Lake Towada!

Igloos are dome-shaped snow houses built by the indigenous people of North America's extremely cold regions to shelter them from the winter cold.

This "igloo" was developed as a new winter attraction for Aomori in the winter of 2023 in an effort to make it a tourism resource for the snowy region of Aomori.
