🌌Northern Lights over Tromsø - Tromsø - Troms - Norway🇳🇴

📜Some legends about the Northern Lights:

🇬🇷Anciente Greece: The words Aurora Borealis come from the Greek words “Aurora” meaning “sunrise”🌅 and “Boreas” meaning “wind”🌬️. For the ancient Greeks to have seen the lights there must have been some incredibly strong solar☀️ activity because sightings so far south are almost unheard of. The Greeks held that Aurora was the sister of Helios and Seline, the sun☀️ and moon🌕 respectively, and that she raced across the early morning sky🌌 in her multi-coloured🌈 chariot to alert her siblings to the dawning of a new day.

🇪🇺Southern Europe: It is very rare for the Northern Lights to appear over Southern Europe and such appearances require intense solar activity which usually results in red🔴 Auroras appearing in the night sky🌌. Not surprisingly, on the rare, rare occasions that they do appear, they cause quite a stir and, until fairly recently, were enough to terrify a populace unaware of the Aurora’s origin.
The poor residents of France🇫🇷 and Italy🇮🇹 for example believed the lights to be a bad omen heralding the outbreak of anything from war to plague🐀 and death💀. In Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and England🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, the skies are said to have blazed red🔴 just a few weeks prior to the French Revolution⚔️ and were later considered to have been a sign of the coming revolution in their neighbour state.

🇨🇳Ancient China: Auroral sightings in China are also rare and would have been caused by a significant solar☀️ event so unsurprisingly, the ancient Chinese were in awe of the lights that sporadically illuminated their night sky🌌.
It is said that many of the early Chinese legends associated with dragons were a result of the Northern Lights. The belief is that the lights were viewed as a celestial battle between good and evil dragons🐉 who breathed fire🔥 across the firmament.

❓Did you know that the astronauts on board the International Space Station are at the same altitude as the Northern Lights and see them from the side?

Clarion Hotel The Edge

Clarion Hotel The Edge

10/10 Excellent

"Upgraded room for sea view which only cost £14. Staff were very friendly and the room was very clean. Comfy bed. Breakfast was the star of the show - with food being so expensive in Tromso it was great to have such a big breakfast buffet to fill up on in the morning. Great location too. "
