Swedish Lapland, Sweden

An ice hotel rebuilt from scratch every winter, reindeer herded by the Sámi the way they have been for generations, and a midnight sun in summer that makes bedtime a matter of opinion.

The best time to visit Swedish Lapland is Dec–Mar, or Jun–Aug, when typical daytime highs reach about 16°C (61°F).
