冰屋, 雪屋
a house or shelter in the shape of a dome that is built from blocks of ice or hard snow
An igloo is a small, dome-shaped house made from blocks of compacted snow, traditionally built by the Inuit people in cold, snowy regions. The blocks are stacked in a circular pattern, gradually sloping inward to create a roof. Igloos are designed to trap body heat and keep the inside warm, even in extremely cold temperatures, due to the insulating properties of snow. They are typically used as temporary shelters for hunting or travel, though some modern igloos are built for tourism or as unique living spaces.
