To kick off the holiday season, one Texas resort is takingA Charlie Brown Christmasoff the small screen and into a life-size exhibit made entirely from ice.
Before the exhibit can open, the carvers work from pencil sketches for 30 days to create the ice sculptures.
During this time, and while the exhibit is in session, the space is kept at a constant 9 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure the ice is intact. And because it’s so cold, visitors are given complimentary parkas for the experience.
There are 11 rooms that make up the exhibit — not only can guests feast their eyes on Charlie Brown, Linus, Sally, Lucy, and even Snoopy and his doghouse, they can also enjoy six two-story ice slides, an ice bar, and a life-size Nativity scene.
Outside of the ice village, the resort also offers a snow tubing hill, outdoor ice skating rink and gingerbread house decorating, all happening on the grounds of the 125-acre property decked out in Christmas decorations.
The exhibit is open every day of the holiday season and runs through Jan. 5. Tickets cost $24 for adults and $15 for kids. For more information, visit theGaylord Texaswebsite.
