Go “hunt” The Arctic Aurora

The arctic is a remote and mysterious place, associated with many thrilling stories about difficult expeditions because of the extremely harsh climate. or in the arctic where the attraction of this distant land always attracts the attention of many people, although making a trip here is not easy. Having been cherished for a long time, until now I have the opportunity to fulfill my dream. The Arctic is a large land, not belonging to a single country. So, in order to fully experience the unique features of this place, what you must first consider when deciding to make a lifetime visit to the Arctic is choosing a destination

. It was fortunate that I had the opportunity to work with Visit Russia's Asia Regional Representative Office and to be fully informed about the regions of Russia. And, even more amazing when I have identified my destination: Murmansk Region.Murmansk is located on the Kola peninsula, in the territory of Russia and is the largest city in the arctic belt region More than 300,000 people, Murmansk is the base of the Russian navy's submarine fleet and an important trading port of the Arctic Ocean sea route.



During World War II, this was the gathering point for escort ships in the North Sea. Currently, all arctic expedition ships depart from the port of Murmansk as well as use the logistics and rescue services provided by this place. In Murmansk there are unique phenomena that take place every year such as days. North Pole (May 22 - July 23). During these 63 days, the sun will not set. In addition, there is an arctic night phenomenon (December 2 - January 10), which occurs when darkness dominates this land for 40 days and arctic auroras, a phenomenon of light strips dancing in the sky. The night was created by the impact of wind, sun and earth magnetic field Arriving in Murmansk was exactly the night of the Arctic night, so during our time here, the sun did not appear in the sky.



The scene only glows dimly like the sunrise from 11am to 3pm. And beyond that time, night fell over everything. The outdoor temperature ranges from -15 to -25 ° C, and the whole ground is covered with pure white snow, dry porous and shimmering in the diamond-like light. In just a few days, we were able to experience it. All interesting activities for visitors to this land, such as visiting the world's first atomic bomb-destroyer called Lenin, the Teriberk village area is on the Arctic Ocean. The sea here is very cold, but all year round, it is not frozen due to the heat of the Barents hot ocean currents.In the weather of -18 ° C, we tour on Snowmobile (snowmobile) to cross the wings. bare fields, frozen lakes in succession and finally reaching the craggy cliffs overlooking the Arctic Ocean.



In Sami village, the reindeer are friendly and feed in the hands of visitors. In the white snow scene, we participated in outdoor games such as soccer, ice skating, reindeer riding, Snowmobile self driving etc. When we were tired we were served hot dishes. But most of all, what we look forward to is seeing the arctic auroras with our own eyes, a magical natural phenomenon that can only be seen in the northern polar region of the country. Earth. The first night we went to "hunt" the arctic aurora but were not very lucky because we departed a bit late. In addition, the bright full moon light eclipsed everything. We comforted ourselves, we could only see that even a little was lucky.



The second night, when we left after visiting the Husky dogs, suddenly that ghostly light appeared in the sky. our group jumped out of the car. Because we didn't prepare in advance, we didn't have a tripod or a remote with us. In the cold as low as -24 ° C, I sat on the side of the road, feet deep in the snow 30cm deep, trying to hold the camera tightly to not shake for nearly 20 minutes just to capture this scene. When it faded, I had to ask my companion to pull it up because my legs were freezing. When I got into the car under the light, I discovered that my fingers were bruised, numb and lost feeling because I forgot to wear gloves. Everyone was excited by the unexpected gift given by nature. Personally, I feel very lucky, unlike a friend who once drove more than 5,000km to Norway for 5 days, every night, sitting on the top of a snowy mountain, waiting for 6-7 hours and still cannot hunt for the plate.



Leaving the icy weather in the North Pole, our next cruise took us to the lovely coastal city of Sochi, which is the most popular resort resort in Russia. Previously, under the Soviet Union, high-performing cadres and employees were qualified to vacation here every year, so the first hotels and motels in Sochi belonged to almost every agency. state-owned, such as the Ministry of Energy motel, Petroleum hotel etc, like in TP. Vung Tau or Ha Long in Vietnam. At S..
