Understanding Norway's seasonal extremes: Midnight sun and polar nights
In Northern Norway, the midnight sun is a distinct occurrence where the sun remains visible for weeks throughout the summer months, a result of the Earth's axial tilt and the region's location above the Arctic Circle. Although the constant daylight draws many tourists, residents frequently rely on blackout curtains to keep their sleep schedules on track. Conversely, the winter season introduces extended periods of darkness, leading to a significant transformation in the rhythm of everyday life.
