I've been meaning to get over to see the castle around sunset. The castle is formed by layers and layers of icicles. At night lit by LED lights.

I live in Eden Prairie, had no idea this existed at MOA, (which I loathe for shopping.) I suppose I should go see it. Thanks for the great pictures.

For non-Minnesotans, MOA is America's largest mall, Mall Of America, which is insanely huge.

About Fieldofflowers
Fieldofflowers Every day that I come here, I'm amazed by the awesome photos I see. I love to take photos of whatever catches my eye. Usually my photos have something to do with nature. Insects and flowers have always been a big interest. You can also find me on Flickr. Summer '09 goal: Aiming to take pictures daily, and upload some of my favorites. I hope people enjoy them as much as I do. Most of the time, the fun comes from taking the pictures, more than the actual results. Create your own visitor map! Counter started: 6-21-09
