In this city of Norway, something magical happens whenever the night falls

Reine is located in the Lofoten Islands of Norway. Its most charming feature are the houses, mostly vivid colors that differ in winter from the snow that covers the Reinebringen mountain slopes that appear in the background.
Only 300 inhabitants are occupied, who mainly deal with fishing. Although viewed as one of the most inaccessible parts of the country, it is visited by thousands of tourists every year. Why? Because in this small point on the map, something magical happens whenever it darkens.

In Reine we have the most impressive appearance of the natural phenomenon called the "Northern Lights".

The northern lights are one of the most important natural phenomena, as the sky is full of colorful colors and complex shapes. This natural phenomenon is so famous that special trips are organized for tourists who want to see the spectacle closely.

This phenomenon has been known since ancient times and the first observer is said to be Aristotle. How is it created?

From the collision of charged particles (mainly electrons and protons) from the space, which are blocked in the magnetic field of the earth, move toward the North Pole and finally react with air particles.

Let's not go further with the scientific explanations, but we'll tell you that "aurora borealis" (northern lights), commonly found in the Nordic countries, are derived from the name of the Roman dawn of the dawn, Aurora and the area geography of the North.
