Old Town Yellowknife

踱家姐
Many people say that they should see the Northern Lights once in their lifetime! The biggest enemy of the aurora is the weather. Whether you see it or not depends on your luck 😁 We have seen six times Aurora Finland Norway Iceland and three times Yellowknife Town The most beautiful and shocking chance rate is probably also Yellowknife Town Which in Yellowknife twice was fortunate enough to witness the aurora explosion the whole sky is also dancing that feeling is still in sight 😱 The only drawback of Yellowknife is really purely to see the aurora without any sightseeing attractions Up to add a hiking or fishing etc. Unlike other European countries where you can see the aurora have beautiful sights But I still love Yellowknife Town She has never let me down To see the aurora in Yellowknife is recommended to follow a local light chasing group because it is the most well-known place to see the aurora also because it will chase the light will not stop only one location becomes more likely to see the aurora and some of which have their own tents to take pictures More features will also take aurora portraits for customers 👍 Every year late August September 12 to early April is also the Yellowknife aurora season I prefer September because the weather is roughly 0 degrees or so not too cold lake can also reflect the aurora reflection beautiful December to February is 0 below 30 or so 40 degrees Hong Kong people can't stand it again😂 Go to the photo🎉

A person must go to see the Northern Lights once in his life. Really, you must go. When you see the Northern Lights flashing before your eyes, it is a kind of beauty that cannot be described in words. At night, you can watch the Northern Lights in the camp, chase the Northern Lights on a sled. You will never get enough of it.
