This glass-wall restaurant has been built in the middle of snow by Kolahoi Green Heights hotel of Gulmarg. Two years back, the same hotel had built a snow igloo in Gulmarg what the management claimed was the biggest snow igloo of Asia.

Hotel management said that they took the concept from Finland and built three igloos in the courtyard of their hotel - a feature which was not seen anywhere before.

"Imported fabricated material has been used for this unique igloo. This unique glass-fronted restaurant keeps the interior insulated and offers the best view.
