best places to visit in greenland
Nuuk
Nuuk is the capital and largest city of Greenland as well as the seat of government and the country’s largest cultural and economic center.
It is especially popular with visitors for the Greenland National Museum. Its collections of hunting equipment, kayaks, carvings, and Viking finds paint a vivid picture of life here from the earliest times. The museum also hosts regular exhibitions of geology and the arts. Nuuk is the departure point for tours of the Godthåb Fjord, one of Greenland’s most beautiful regions, and the atmospheric buildings of the old colonial harbor are well worth seeing.
Northern Lights
An Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is a natural light display in Earth’s sky, predominantly seen in high-latitude regions. The Northern Lights are often referred to as “the biggest light show on earth,” and if you are visiting Greenland, you shouldn’t miss this incredible natural spectacle.
Traveling during winter will give you the best experience of the Aurora Borealis. There’s a good chance of seeing the Northern Lights anytime between November and March, although December through February are the best months because the nights are clearer. Even though the Northern Lights are visible across Greenland, Qaqortoq (south), Ittoqqortoormiit (east), and Kangerlussuaq (west) provide the best views.
