SnoWalk @ i-City
Living in a tropical climate country, we always longed for winter as that is one thing we can’t get here. Due to the boys’ desire to experience snow, we brought them to SnoWalk @ i-City recently.

The entrance of SnoWalk.
We were given jackets before entering SnoWalk. Boots and gloves were not provided though. It is recommended to bring your own gloves as it can be really cold in here.
Ayden got a cute little jacket just right for his size.
SnoWalk is literally snow walk. We walked on carpeted walkway to admire the snow displays by our sides. But it gets better as the further we walked in, the carpet disappears and we get to walk on ice.
The ice sculptures can be very slippery though (because they are made of ICE, duh… Merryn can you be a little more intelligent?) so be very careful while posing for photographs. I almost slip onto the camel when I put my foot on the ice sculpture in the above picture. Lesson learnt – do not step on ice sculpture
Wait, what? Camel? In a winter wonderland? LoL. YES! We were in River Nile that features the great story of Egypt and Pharaoh. Over the Nile River, we can see ice sculptures with the storyline of Egyptians and the kingdom in the arctic winter instead of scorching hot sun.
It is really cold in here, below 8 degrees Celsius. Without gloves and winter hats, the boys started to get frozen.
It is a good idea to keep warm in the igloo.
Ice slide.
More ice sculptures.
Egypt and Pharaoh
How in the world did these turtles survive this extreme freezing temperature?
And we are back on the carpeted walkway to board the Polar Express.
Waiting to ride the Polar Express. The Polar Express brought us to a journey to the Arctic to see Eskimos fishing and playing with polar bears.
The boys were intrigue by this man who was building something. They stood there for a while watching him at work but then they got really cold hence we quickly find our way out.
Unlike the Snow World in Genting that has a 40-minutes limit per session, there is no time limit for visitors here in SnoWalk. You can take your time as long as you wish but my little family were in there for less than half an hour as the boys can’t stand the cold. It would be great if they could provide gloves and boots just like Snow World Genting. It would make it more bearable in the cold.

The last one I went to that was something like this was at Mines. So very cold. Closed down already, that one?
I’ve not been to the one at Mines. That area is totally out of reach for me.
My kids would love this. But then again I bet they would like to play with snow more than pose with ice sculpture. Hehe.
Plan to visit the snow world in Genting with family. Hopefully next year. Together with the theme park once completed. ^^
I’m excitedly waiting for the theme park too :D
Snow World Genting has a time limit of 40 minutes per session. Here, no time limit. I think there are some areas where the kids can touch and play snow but not like Genting lah. In Genting we can pull a sleigh somemore.
This place is very interesting for real life winter experience at -8C!!! Few years ago, I went to admire the lights at night but didn’t go inside as the queue was like a mile long. I went to the one in Genting and I remember they didn’t have much sculptures like this. Hope your kids will enjoy real snow and ice soon.
The queue is still mile long these days @[email protected]
I do hope that the kids can enjoy real snow and ice soon too :D
How come not yet Christmas got reindeers and Christmas tree already?
I think the reindeers and trees are resident over there. You can see them all year round. LoL.
If I go I will wear my own winter jacket,scarf, gloves since it is so cold. Would be nice if there are snow falling for customers to build snowmen.
I remember the one in Genting has snow falling. I lazy to bring our own jacket, scarf and all coz we also wanted to go to the museum and more after that, lazy to bring so many things. But it was so cold in there, without gloves, the kids can’t stay long. Even I was starting to freeze.
It’s really warmer inside the igloo? Curious~
