a copy of an artwork by Romanian-born modernist sculptor Constantin
Brancusi, at the Balea Lac Ice Hotel in Fagaras mountains, 300 km (186
miles) northwest of Bucharest, February 1, 2006. Tucked away in a remote
valley in Romania's Carpathian mountains, the tiny hotel has opened to try
and attract tourists and their cash to the unspoilt forests of some of
Europe's greatest wilderness. [Reuters]
