The Sun Never Sets In These 5 Places In The World by Vaishalee Kalvankar Updated: September 02, 2022 12:34 PM Share

Our days begin with beautiful sunlight and end with blissful moonlight. It is how it works, 12 hours of night and 12 hours of day. But not everywhere in the world. Many countries in the world have about 70 days as the sun does not go down till then. Yes you read that right. There are some countries in the northwestern part of the Earth where the sun does not set every single day. Here are 5 such countries

1. Sweden

Sweden is renowned for having many lakes and forests. Northern Europe’s largest nation, it is well-known for the Northern Lights. The sun shines strongly from the beginning of May to the end of August. The sun sets about midnight and rises around 4 AM in Sweden at this time. The constant time of sunshine in this country can be up to 6 months.

2. Barrow, Alaska

Alaska is known for glacial scenery, sparkling snow-covered mountains, and glaciers. This city in Alaska is simply blessed with divine beauty. The sun does not set at all here from late May to late July. After this the sun does not set from the beginning of November for 30 days. This time period when the time does not rise in Alaska is known as the polar nights.

3. Nunavut, Canada

Just about 2 degrees from the Arctic circle in the Canadian Northwest Territories is where Nunavut is located. This place actually experiences sunlight for 24 hours and all 7 days for about 60 days. The sun does not set here for 60 days. The next fascinating thing is that during winters the place experiences 30 days of darkness only. Which means that the sun does not rise for 30 days.
