The Northern Lights; An amazing experience through a trip in Lapland.
I therefore intend to propose a different trip where coat, scarf, snow boots and sled are going to be very necessary to take in account... Let´s go Finland!
I discovered a travel plan, that lead us into the most Christmas atmosphere we have ever seen.
But I do not want to talk about Christmas. It is important to be aware of that we come across of one of the coldest regions in the world, with temperatures that can reach -30 degrees in winter. But there is something that really motivates me about this country and is that apart from being famous, by their ancestors the Vikings, the saunas and our beloved Santa Claus, Finland is famous for its northern lights.
Broadly speaking, northern lights are considered a physical phenomena that are much more likely to occur in arctic areas or near the poles. Basically they are produced when a solar storm coming from the sun is ejected towards the earth, those particles when entering the atmosphere collide with the particles of oxygen and hydrogen (the most abundant of the atmosphere) thus giving them part of the energy. Oxygen and hydrogen are immantate, getting to convert that energy in the form of that characteristic light, green, pink or lilac.
This phenomenon can practically be observed almost all year round but there is a tendency to occur in autumn and winter.
An Arctic resort has been recently built and it is called: kakslauttanen, a crystal iglu, for all those who want to enjoy this experience within a construction that creates a cozy and warm environment typical of the Nordic countries, with a glass roof that allows us to look at the sky full of boreal lights while we are just simply relaxed in our bed.
A unique experience that brings us closer to the wildest nature and extreme temperatures, protecting us from the most unique resorts ever built.
