An ice road across the frozen Baltic Sea was opened in Estonia

In Estonia, the land of ice, paradise summers and endless sunsets, the ice road across the frozen Baltic Sea has been opened again. It is the first and shortest of the six such roads, 3.9 kilometers long, and vehicles weighing up to two and a half tons can drive along it. The same road traffic regulations do not apply there as on asphalt roads, because you must not, among other things, be strapped in while driving on an icy road! Find out why below.

The most expensive apartment in the world: Château Louis XIV

Château Louis XIV recently became the most expensive apartment in the world! It was sold to an anonymous buyer from the Middle East for an incredible 301 million US dollars (275 million euros), thus beating the previous record of a penthouse in London (One Hyde Park), which was sold in 2011 for 221 million dollars (192 million euros). Although reminiscent of a 17th century château (the time of the reign of the Sun King aka Louis XIV), the opulent château located on the outskirts of Paris was actually only built in 2011.

Many hostels around the world are known for deviating from established notions of tourist accommodation. A good example is the Slovenian hostel Celica, which is far from the only one famous for its unique concept. Berlin's Generator Hostel also "invented" its own style, using the trompe-l'oeil (French term for "fooling the eye") technique for the interior, an ancient illusionistic technique that confuses the eye.

The ski slopes in the Alps show a green image! Who Stole Winter?

Those who have already visited the ski resorts in the Alps this year wonder who stole the winter. After 2000, almost all Christmases in Slovenia were green, and 2015 (unfortunately) was no different. A white Christmas has clearly become more than just a thing of the imagination of the past, rather than a reality. But, as said, it is even worse. Alpine ski resorts are also showing a poor image, and some popular destinations are already starting to suffer chronically from a lack of snow. Photos from the field show the price they are paying for the unusually warm weather this year.
