Set to open this July, a new way to escape the heat without flying to Japan.

Snow Town to open in Bangkok
19 May, 2015 Bangkok time
Located on the fifth floor of the Gateway Ekamai mall, Snow Town is set to open on Jul 1 and claims to be the largest indoor snow shopping mall in Southeast Asia covering an area of over 3,000 square meters. 
 
As part of the complex, you can expect a long list of restaurants from Hokkaido, such as Steak no Don, Aji No Tokeidai and Hanabatake Bokujo alongside shops and attractions.
 
The artificial snow is said to be 30-40cm deep, allowing such activities as skiing (apparently lessons will be offered), snowboarding and snowball fights. Other promised attraction include an igloo-like Kamakura snow house and Oekaki interactive zone. 
 
There's no word on pricing yet. Visit www.snowtown.co.th for more information.
