5 Places on Earth Where the Sun Never Sets

We all experience those moments when we long for the day to never come to an end. However, in certain parts of the world, this wish becomes reality. These
places are known for their phenomenon of the sun never setting, creating a continuous day without a distinct transition to night. In such locations, the concept of time becomes blurred as there is no clear indication of when to sleep or wake up. It is an extraordinary experience where daylight persists indefinitely, challenging our conventional understanding of day and night.

 

Norway
Situated in the Arctic Circle, Norway is called the Land of the Midnight Sun. For about a period of 76 days from May to late July, this is the place where sun never sets. The bright sunlight engulfs the entire region for about 20 hours a day. In Svalbard, Norway, which is the northern-most inhabited region of Europe, the sun shines continuously from April 10 to August 23. Visit the region and live for days, for there is no night.

celand
A beautiful country, Iceland is the Europe’s largest island after Great Britain. Iceland gets sunlight from May 10 through July, where the sun is above the horizon all the time. Besides the breath-taking northern lights, the country offers various delightful activities like hiking, wildlife watching, and whale watching, caving, cycling and visiting the national parks.

Canada
The world’s second largest country, several parts of Canada is covered with snow all through the year. In places like Inuvik and the Northwest territories, the sun shines for about 50 days in summer and it makes Canada no night
country during this period.

Alaska
This is the country where sun never sets from late May to late July. Beautiful and breath-taking, the country is in darkness in the harsh months of winter. Known for its spectacular glaciers and snow-capped mountains. Imagine watching those beautiful mountains glistening with snow at 2 am in morning.

Finland
Finland, known as the land of thousand lakes and islands, is blessed with a unique natural phenomenon. During the summer season, most regions of Finland are graced with an astonishing 73 consecutive days of sunlight. This presents a wonderful opportunity to witness breath-taking sights such as the mesmerizing northern lights, as well as indulge in extraordinary experiences like staying in enchanting glass igloos and partaking in exhilarating skiing adventures.
