3 Days On The Largest Island Ice In The Planet

Something strange is happening is that the remote and cold arctic region is now attracting more tourists than ever. Do not know if at the end of December last year, CNN has released a list of 16 "hot" tourist destinations in 2016 and the arctic region ranks third on this list? Tourism Greenland: 3 days on large ice Want to visit the arctic, maybe to one of three lands owned by Iceland, Greenland or Norway. More attractive to our group of Vietnamese international students in Finland than Greenland is Greenland because it has a special world heritage and in March the Arctic Winter Games will take place. It is also convenient to submit here. So, we decided to spend three days weekend to get acquainted with Greenland - the largest island ice on the planet

. Nuuk Capital From the window of the plane, zooming out, we thought we were watching the clouds, but it's time to prepare for a new landing or that the plane has glided over the glaciers. The landing was not very smooth, but immediately everyone was assured by the crew that this phenomenon was completely normal at this airport.When Nuuk School was very small, there was no customs or security counter, also no one stamped their passport Passengers just need to pick up their luggage and step outside.



So our dream of visiting Greenland came true. The statue of Hans Egede overlooking the harbor, Nuuk, It was cold. The wind brought the drizzling raindrops blowing on the thick ice. We were greeted by a young man named Peter who spoke quite fluent English. On the way back to the hotel, Peter told of the history of Greenland. According to legend, in the past, a man named Erik Rouge was expelled from Iceland for murder. He and his family and slaves traveled to the Northwest, found this land and gave it the name Grønland (Greenland in English, meaning green land), perhaps to attract people from With nearly 16,000 people, Nuuk is the island's most populous city Greenland was given autonomy by the Danish Parliament in 1979, but Danish Queen Margrethe II is still the head of state, with a large area of 2,166,086 km2 and 44,087km of coastline, but this ice is only 57 thousand people.



Currently, Greenland still receives an annual subsidy of about 3.6 billion kroner (about 627 million USD) from Denmark not including the costs of defense, security and order ... According to the Danish Geological Research Institute, Greenland is One of the 20 "mining nations" of the world is being explored and exploited by US, UK, Australian, Chinese and Korean companies. Peter said that the human resources on the island are not meeting the demand. There are many workers coming here from other places, of which the Chinese are most easily encountered. Danish journalists called Greenland's Nuuk capital "Chinatown" because Chinese people are everywhere! .



.. And Santa's office! After a tour of Nuuk's old colonial port, Peter handed them over I got to the place with a giant red mailbox on the street. It turned out to be Santa's mailbox, specializing in receiving all the wishes of children around the world through letters. "Mr." (of course a volunteer organization) will quickly send it after reading it. the most relevant responses. Recently, "he" has expanded his network, now has three facilities in the Arctic, including Alaska (USA), Lapland (Finland) and Greenland.



Although Santa's house is located in Uummannaq province in Northern Greenland, all children's mail from all over the world is received at this location. The bright red Redemptorist church was built in 1849, outside there is a statue of a man overlooking the harbor. It was Hans Egede - who had the credit to lay the first bricks to form Nuuk in 1728, when he came here to evangelize from Denmark. Right at the entrance you could see the specimen of a Viking ship hanging from the ceiling. At home, inside is an oil painting of a portrait of Hans Egede in prayer. The church interior is simple but elegant with gray and gold tones, and at the end of the row there is a candle. Perhaps it was not yet time for the ceremony, so only a few people prayed silently in solemn air. We continued past Greenland's Parliament building, courts and law enforcement.



If those structures are magnificent and many years old, there are quite a lot of works under construction on the other two roads. In the cold North Pole this year round, one has to speed up construction in the short summer to save the strenuous. In Greenland there is also the northern aurorasTour around the capital Nuuk ends with a visit to the Greenland National Museum . Only an hour before the museum closes, so Peter urged everyone to accept the "horse riding to see the flowers." In about 45 minutes, we had the opportunity to get acquainted with the exhibits that introduce life , dress style and native Inuit labor tools, then observe the screen for the calendar.
