We don’t have many opportunities to walk through frozen tundras here in Texas, so this glittering land of ice is even more magical. Two million pounds of the frozen stuff, lights, and everyone’s favorite red-nosed reindeer make Gaylord Texan Resort’s ICE! one of our state’s premier holiday attractions. Check it out and try not to freeze!

Two million pounds of ice fill this resort hotel during the holiday season. Hand-carved by master sculptors, the frozen holiday scenes look like they could come to life at any moment.

This year’s theme is everyone’s favorite red-nosed reindeer, so get ready for a trip to the North Pole! At a chilly 9 degrees, the temperature will definitely have you convinced.

Rudolph leads the way, followed by each of his antlered companions. Santa brings up the rear, and this almost eerily realistic looking group prepares to set off on Christmas Eve!

Giant ice slides plus a hill with real snow bring one of the most timeless winter activities to Texas. Race your friends and family to see who has the speed to help guide Santa’s sleigh!

A breathtaking, crystalline Nativity scene will also be on display. Nothing evokes the spirit of Christmas quite like this.

Whimsical scenes like railroad crossings, animals, and popular movie characters will bring about an innocent sparkle in the eyes of young and old. Frolic from one brightly colored exhibit to the next and experience pure, unadulterated joy.

Have you ever been to ICE!? Are there any other similar events going on in Texas this holiday season? We think Moody Gardens’ Ice Land is pretty neat.
